Quoting T!M:

Okay, yeah, I see, technically that could happen. As of yet, though, with 6 vs. 4 confirmed titles, I see absolutely no reason to switch my Dave Kelsey entries to David Kelsey, especially in light of the fact that there already is a David Kelsey in the database (and no birth years available for either of them).


I'd agree with that. The problem is, with no consistent guidance as to how to count TV series, others may not.

I counted the CLT results at 6/5/2 for David Kelsey/Dave Kelsey/David P. Kelsey right now.
Link: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0447038/.  T!M says that the common name is Dave Kelsey.  I would like to be sure (no offense T!M).

Dave Kelsey: 8 confirmed
Airheads (by me)
BASEketball (by ninehours)
Bruce Almighty (by T!M)
Dick Tracy (by T!M)
Dude, Where's My Car? (by T!M)

The Work And The Glory: American Zion (by me)
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!

Crap!  It's a tie by T!M's count, and victory for David Kelsey by my count (see my post that's 1 before T!M's on page 2).  Who's with me????  Anyone?  David over Dave?!

Again: let's not forget that it would be extremely convenient if his common name was not "David Kelsey" (but "Dave Kelsey" instead), because then that would distinguish him from other David Kelsey's in the database (for which, due to lack of available birth years, no other method of distinguishing currently exists).

It actually turned out to be an easy choice for me.  I don't have any David Kelsey cast roles in my db.  But, for those who do (like T!M), Dave would ideally be the common name.  In checking IMDB, David and Dave Kelsey both have Special Effects Coordinator roles that haven't been checked since the SE Coordinator rule went into effect.  So David Kelsey may win yet!  (Insert evil laugh here).

List updated.  12-8 in favor of David Kelsey so far.  Anyone have The Craft and/or Dark Matter and can check?

Do not enter unit crew such as "Unit Photographer"


I think that this is not valid only for Photographers...
