| Posted: | | | | Every so often when I contribute a change in a certain profile, The software/website recognizes Cast/Crew data changes though I haven't made any myself. Here's a recent example: The only changes I have made are: Removed the DTS from the edition field, as it's not on the cover. Added rating details & MC from the back cover. I usually leave the so called "bogus" info out when contributing, but it's confusing nevertheless. An online refresh doesn't make any difference either. | | | October 12th, 1985.

| Posted: | | | | It can't be disabled. It's the online database making sure that the names are filtered correctly.
K.K.//Moggie becomes K./K./Moggie. P.T.//Anderson becomes P./T./Anderson etc
As long as the 'Credited As' is correct (same as seen on-screen), this is fine.
As an aside, and again no fault of yours, it looks like the Cast and Crew data in that profile need to be checked anyway... "Junix Nocian as Famous (as Junix Inocian)" is a sure-fire sign that that information came from IMDB when it should have been taken from the Credits of the film itself. | | | Last edited: by GreyHulk |

| Posted: | | | | If you don't check the Cast box, it won't be submitted. (But as others pointed out, it's no big deal to submit it. |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting GreyHulk: Quote: "Junix Nocian as Famous (as Junix Inocian)" is a sure-fire sign that that information came from IMDB when it should have been taken from the Credits of the film itself. The same could be true for the "K.K. Moggie" entry - IMDb lists initials without the space, so there again, that entry might just have been mined from IMDb rather than reflecting the actual credits. If the credits actually show "K. K. Moggie", then a listing of "K. K. Moggie [K.K. Moggie]" would actually be wrong. | | | Last edited: by T!M |
