And the bad news is that that corrupts an important piece of data in this particular case.

But in this case, James that premise is making a fundamental change ibn the data, misrepresenting the way the man apparently wishes to be credited as an ACTOR, not as a Crew member.

And corrupts data in the process.

At no point is any data being corrupted. No matter what the common name, we still track whatever name variant is seen on-screen in the "credited as" field. It's as simple as that, and everything else is just going on in your head only.

Additionally, I really think it's time you give this up. On page one, you've started with the complete misconception that we don't use common names for (uncredited) cast entry. You then proceeded to cloud matters by referring to a father with the same name (your no-vote still reads "there is also William Wisher the fathet in addition tyo William Wisher the son, who are you changing it to you"). That simply isn't true, yet another red herring, as there is only one William Wisher in the database - no father with the same name, no Sr. It's just, plain and simply put, not true. Subsequently you started claiming that Kluge should have used "credited as" for his change, while we obviously can't use "credited as" for uncredited entries, so that was a dead end as well. And now you suddenly want to track that Mr. Wisher "uses one credit for acting and one for crew" - something the rules simply don't facilitate: the common name is common for both (and let's not forget the fact that you're basing this perceived difference on only one credit), and you're carping about CLT numbers. All in all, it's pretty clear to everyone that you're grasping at straws...

The matter was settled on page one: Kluge's contribution is 100% correct. End of story.

That may not be important to you, Tim But to some pf us it is every bit as important as linking, perhaps more so.

The "that" you are referring to, is your perceived idea that Mr. Wisher "uses one credit for acting and one for Crew." As I pointed out five minutes ago, you're basing that perception on one (count 'em) credit - so... pretty skechy to say the least. But even if we ignore that, the program is not set up to facilitate tracking this. If it's important to you, then by all means, go ahead and track it locally. For online purposes, however, his common name applies to both cast and crew.

And corrupts data in the process. You might consider it sketchy, Tim. But to demand your standard, show me ONE credit were he has an acting credit as just Wisher...just one. You won't find it because it does NOT exist. this is an acting credit and it is being fundamentally changed.
