It is an example skip.. no more then that. An example to show there could be a need for the common name for someone famous in this situation.

If he is credited as Richard Bachman... then it would be Stephen King (Richard Bachman) so that it links that profile with all his other profiles.

As I said.. there is possibilities where something like this can come up. and how I would handle it. I don't believe that Not adding at all is correct as long as it can be documented.

OK, qualified not at all. How's that, Pete.  I don't want to close the door completely obviously but there has to be documentation and the more unknown the person the more documentation should be providied.

OK, I was affraid this would happen. Nobody seems to understand the question.

Here's an example:

In the movie Face/Off we have an uncredited Helipcopter Pilot commonly named as Robert "Bobby Z" Zajonc ,
who is credited as an Aerial Coordinator in the Crew section by the name Bobby "Z" Zajonc, leading to two options;

Robert "Bobby Z" Zajonc as Helipcopter Pilot (uncredited)

Robert "Bobby Z" Zajonc [Bobby "Z" Zajonc] as Helipcopter Pilot (uncredited)

Of course the easiest way is not to look for his as credited name, but if you do find it I ask myself:
Would it not be better if we do add that name to the online database and so enhancing the credit lookup function?

Have you clicked on my link? I think not. It's the documentation he is both a Motion Picture Pilot and an Aerial Coordinator!

OK... so seems like I understood the question correctly. Except in this case his crew credit is not something we track (like in my example).

But I would still say... as I said above... as long as it is properly documented (and no I didn't check your link since I do not have said movie) I would just go with common name - Role (Uncredited)

You better provide a timestamp in addition to the other "documentation".

Otherwise its of little use.

Thank you for making my point, Randy.

Sometimes I think that some users get all carried with (uncredited) there is some silhouette in the Chopper in must be him, kind of thing. Just because someone made an (uncredited) in one or SOME films does not automatically qualify him for (uncredited) in every film he works on as part of the crew. If you can provide an identifiable time stamp where the persons's face is clearly seen, then don't enter the information, it doesn't qualify.

Sigh... Like I said, I am not claiming my example is OK (and I can not prove it is wrong either), because that's not the issue. It's the question I asked in my initial post of this topic.

It is an issue since you provided the example.

If on the other hand a credited crew member is visually verifiable as an uncredited cast member, then I have no problem with entering them in the cast list as uncredited as long as there is sufficient documentation to support their inclussion.
