This might only be interesting for German collectors, but helpful comments from others are also welcome!

There is a lot of animation and cartoon stuff around. So no actor, only voices! And only a handful of them credits the german speakers/voices, but most of the times not half of them.

As I am always interested in the "data behind", what means: as much speakers as possible, I check out
https://www.synchronkartei.de/
to get (more) data.

To explain the site (for the ones who have never heard about it): They collect data from nearly every movie/TV Series they can get and built a database (similar to ours here) with the german voices. I had several conversations with them where they get their data (as sometimes even there I can't find the info I want and need to write mails myself) and got the answer that they're mostly in contact with several companies for Synchronisation.

Maybe someone else does the same I do and I think it's stupid to invent the wheel twice! So if there is a chance to make this site a legal source for profile data, I would appreciate this very much!

The people of the forum can't make it a "legal source"... all we can do is request it  and possible write the wording to add it to the rules. Then it is up to Invelos to say yes or no. Which suscks since Ken has been absent for so long.

My sugestion is keep this up or bring it up again when Ken is back... most likely for the next profiler release. Some may have given up on Ken  but I for one haven't yet as I dealt with him for a good 20 years and this is not a new situation he does disappear like this then out of nowhere reappear most the time with a new release of the program.

I don't think this is a valid source, it is a third party data base...

But for most of the movies (escpecially if you collect cartoons) it is the ONLY source I could find EVER!
Having "voiceless" movies sometimes is horrible! Imagine a cartoon-movie with only German audio and the credits only list the English voices...

I see the problem, and most probably I wouldn't vote it down, if there are really no written credits on any disc available. But I won't even try to prove the condition in this sentence; especially animated movies very often include the credits on the BluRays - more often than on DVDs...
