Convert table to "long" format

[edit]

Most Tony Awards are split into separate wikipedia pages for their different categories/genres (musical vs. play). In this case, the award is condensed to a single page. Being that this might be confusing for data ingestion / data pipelines, I'm going to suggest we convert the data from wide to long, like as is done for Tony Award for Best Sound Design.

Work in Progress: Variants of explicit Tony Award categorization (with long format)

[edit]

Below are 2 variants of a wide + explicit table format. Which format does the community prefer? (Note: I've included them as screenshots instead of code.)
