If an actor is credited by name but does not have an associated role, you may use the film itself, or another source to identify the role. However, third party commercial databases must not be used. In each case, list Actor’s names and roles (when given) exactly as they are in the credits and in exactly the same order credited. the list to post these and the status change on these: acceptable third party NON-commercial databases LIST | | | | Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted.

| | Posted: | | | | I personally would consider wikipedia just as much a third party database as imdb. A site that can be updated by the users is about as useless as can be in my opinion.
What I would consider acceptable would be...
- Official Site for TV Series/Movie
- Booklet/Package of DVD
Stuff on those lines. | | | | Pete |

;)  Of course I was talking about useless to us, for our database, as can be. We are talking about the clarification Ken just put in the rules for cast names with no roles. No commercial 3rd party databases allowed even for that. (ie. IMDB) | | | | Pete |

http://www.episodeworld.com/ would be another candidate, can't seem to find any restrictions on that site. How are you distinguishing between "commercial" and "non-commercial"? | | | | Hal |

Why would one use 3rd party database: missing roles in TV series Sorry, I didn't know that. I don't read the rules on a regular basis. (Why hasn't there been an announcement?). Personally I think the decision is BS because no one can stop me from copying it from IMDb and then declaring "I heard it on the show itself" (Who would take on the task to disprove me?). But that's of course my very personal IMHO and since I don't contribute cast and crew I don't particularly care. | | | Karsten
