| Posted: | | | | Hello All
There are two Luke Perry's
One was in 90210 and was born in 1965 http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000580/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke_Perry http://www.tv.com/luke-perry/person/3195/summary.html
The other is a young actor who's appears in Doctor Who (ep: The Doctor Dances) and in Torchwood Children of Earth
I cannot find a BY for the UK actor at all. He looks to be between 8 and 12 but I can't be sure.
Help greatly appreciated. |

| Posted: | | | | Sorry, I've drawn a blank on this one.
I did come across a few sites that looked like they might have the BY, but on looking into them they'd said it was the other Luke Perry! |

| Posted: | | | | While it's certainly more than I could find, it doesn't necessarily mean he was born in 1997, only that when the article was written (3 July 2009) he was 12. He could also have been born in 1996 and not had his birthday at that point. |

| Posted: | | | | Ok, correct. Embrassing I didn't thought of this. But for first distinguishing the BY of the 90210 Luke Perry should be enough. Pantheon, it was your find, so you may submit the BY?! |

Quick warning: never ever just add ONE birth year in your local database when you've got the people with the same name. If you can't find a BY for the second one, always add a fake, local-only BY. If you don't, and you find yourself having to restore from a backup for whatever reason at some point (if not some kind of crash, then maybe a move to a new computer), then name-with-BY and name-without-BY will automatically be lumped together into one name-with-BY entry, undoing all the work you've done to separate the two. |

| Posted: | | | | I have submitted profiles with both Luke's with the information supplied.
Many thanks to all.
Will this info automatically be moved to the BY thread? |

| Muckl | That's my common name. |

Wow, never noticed this. Thanks for the hint. |

| Posted: | | | | Just to add that I've had 2 contributions declined where I could only find one BY. I don't know if that was the reason but I did give documentation regarding both people with the same name. |

I don't know if that was the reason but I did give documentation regarding both people with the same name. There seem to surprisingly many screener errors with regards to birth year contributions. I understand the need to be strict so as to ensure no unnecessary birth years enter the database, but still... |

| Posted: | | | | I contacted Gerri about this and it was because I only gave links in the contribution notes & didn't copy the info directly into them. |

| Posted: | | | | Don't want to blame you didn't, but a common error is not to include in which profiles the second actor/crew member is included. |
