You're making a mess and others will have to clean up after this ignorance..

Of course you can insult me but i just wanted to follow the rules as stated and as some contributors pointed out to me when i added just "Disney". It's always so easy to point to another when you believe your right yourself and ignore the given rules completely. I didn't point out anyone but was just following the specific Contribution Rules which i hadn't seen earlier untill someone made me notice them.
I personally think it's wrong to ignore those rules however they came to be but it's also wrong to make me the bad guy by just following them! Even more crazy that the screeners from Invelos don't know their own rules and approve and decline them just by being blind.

That's it for me now back to enjoy the good things DVD Profiler offers me  Goodnight

Well, I guess I'm done contributing any profiles or updates. We had this Elton John profile change that was approved that had a different UPC than the existing profile. Now I've had a contribution declined due to a birth year that I didn't even submit. Any birth year included came right out of the existing database when I typed that actor's name into the cast "find" field. I did not add anything.

So I'll just keep my updates to myself from now on, and lock down my local profiles so they're not mistakenly updated with bad info that gets approved by whatever mysterious being has the power over these things.

Best to do a google search for the person's name and "invelos" in quotes.

When I'm doing complete audits of movies, all that is just too much. I usually start out using IMDb data and I verify it against the credits. If IMDb indicates "credited as" then I use the CLT to check which name to use. If I see a birth year before I submit my contribution, I check it against the BY list. Even doing just that taxes my patience.

That's EXACTLY what I do too!  (Except when I can't be bothered to.)  It sure provides hours of free fun, especially with Korean names when you end up with them all ways around, with and without hyphens.

CastCrewQuery 1.2.0

I realized that I needed something better than a list of 1700+ name with birth years if I was going to figure out which BYs in my collection that are invalid.

So I decided to screen scrape the online list of accepted birth years at http://www.luigifilocamo.it/BY.html and match the names there against my own list. That resulted in this:


So, you get the full list first. Then you click Check against BY list and you get someting like the above. If you want to print the list, click Open in text editor and it opens in your default text editor (usually Notepad) and you can print it from there.

Note: The list may not always be 100% up to date, so if you wish to be absolutely sure you should Google it.
For example "Adam Greenberg" site:invelos.com should find a birth year thread if there is one.

Sorry I figured it out, freaked out

I have a simple question (I hope).

If the film premiered at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on 11-Apr-2012:
https://collider.com/avengers-world-premiere/

and was subsequently exhibited:
28-Apr-2012 USA (Tribeca Film festival)
04-May-2012 USA

which one becomes the source for determining the original release title?

If it's the premiere, who in the DVDP community went to that?

Looks like we need a birth year for Doris Day.
