My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it!

one question, if answered (and I did not find it), sorry but kindly slip me the reference:

There are some "animal actors" credited, which happen to have a name like a human actor. E.g. Ashanti, Madonna...
Do we do a BY for the human one to distinguish?
Thx!

If there are two actors with the same name, regardless of how many legs they have, then it stands to reason that we find a way of separating them. Birth year would be the most obvious and easiest way to differentiate them.

Yes, I don't see why not. As long as we include "animal actors" in our cast lists, then that's bound to be needed occasionally. So I agree with Nosferatu on this.

Several of such cases have already been documented and have been accepted into the database. Here's an example which was documented back in 2013: Lulu.

If you follow the link on the first page, you can see what birth years already exist. If you think a new one is needed, provide as much information as you can so they can be added to that database.
