Like mentioned before: There weren't any updates for the parent profile! Before I take data from any parent profile, I check if there is any newer version. As there wasn't, couldn't do any automatic changes

Birth year entries can sneak in locally even if they are not in the online profile (like I tried to explain above). Preview Changes will compare your local profile with the online profile, and will show if you have birth years that are not in the online profile.

It's just an idea to handle this problem not only for myself but for everyone:

What about an Addon or any other tool with kind of a gateway to the online-database which checks if there is data in the personal database with birth date?

I might have entered some myself in the past for any reason or I got some of them in the past as someone else entered (like in the actual problem). And with an Addon like this it could be found out and all the data could be cleared.

And additionally: If I got local dates which are not online, which are neccessary for me for any reason, I can select them and put them to the site of the forum for acceptance.

I only don't know if such a Toll is even possible. But I'd appreciate it very much as the collection won't stop growing. And the bigger it is, the more problems it could cause

Export your collection to an XML file, then open the XML file in CastCrewQuery.

It will show you all birth years in your collection that are not in the List of Accepted Birth Years.

There may be accepted birth years that are not in that list, but it's the closest you'll come, I think.

it looks like Magmadrag has a lot of wrong BY in his database. Today he tried another contribution with wrong BYs in cast.
They are accepted BYs but in the wrong Movies!
