Yep, but here role in Supernatural was called Amanda Walker. So I thought perhaps because of this you got the wrong pic. |

| Posted: | | | | There are two actors called Tom Shaw, one who spends most of his life as a producer but appeared as 'Priest' in The Ninth Configuration and another who appears as Marcus in Resurrecting The Street Walker (pre-release profile currently pending approval).
As the guy who plays Marcus is about 25, he is clearly not the guy who produced and appeared in The Ninth Configuration in 1979!
As I can't find a YoB for either of them, what now? Is there a way of adding two actors with unknown birthdates to the database? |

Short answer: Til now without a BY we don't have a possibility to distinguish online. Yes, sadly you can only add a fake BY locally. | | | 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.1.0

| Posted: | | | | That's what I figured as otherwise it looks like the same guy appears in two films made over 30 years apart and in the latter he's playing a guy in his mid-20s! It is a bit daft and there should be some solution other than fabricating a birth year. |

| Posted: | | | | I've been trying to find the BY for:
John Carpenter (????) aka John F. Carpenter - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0139380/ - http://www.tvrage.com/Studio_60/other/recurring
Films: Role - Network: George Bosch - Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: Herb Sheldon - Cradle Will Rock: William Randolph Hearst
CLT: - John F. Carpenter: 8 titles (10 profiles) - John Carpenter (????): 0 titles (0 profiles)
To differentiate from the other John Carpenter (1948): Invelos accepted BY thread: http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=250804&messageID=682556#M682556 |

| Posted: | | | | That's an interesting comparison, but at least one of your actors has a birth year! Neither of the ones I am after do and I can't find one anywhere. As a last resort, I could e-mail the distributors of Resurrecting The Street Walker and ask them, but that's a pretty big long shot. |

| Posted: | | | | I could be wrong about this but I have one Robert Taylor linking two profiles, one is incorrect. Robert Taylor linking the Quo Vadis profile born in 1911 is, but he is also in my Matrix profile. IMDB says the Robert Taylor in Quo Vadis died in 1969, so I highly doubt they are the same. I can't find a birthyear for the one in the Matrix. |

Added BY to Jenna Boyd to distinguish between the American actress and the British actress
Jenna Boyd(1993) From The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants; Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0101799/ http://www.zimbio.com/Jenna+Boyd http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenna_Boyd
Jenna Boyd(????) from Dustbin Baby http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1303578/ |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Spab: Quote: I've been trying to get this passed but no luck so far, any idea what the problem is This is just a guess, but I'd say it's the lack of documentation for the British Jenna Boyd and the fact IMDB don't list her for Dustbin Baby. Here's her Spotlight page: http://www.spotlight.com/interactive/cv/681089744609 This does include her Dustbin Baby credit on the television tab. And here: http://www.thesoundofmusictour.com/cast/jennaboydNov09.php is a page which also mentions her Dustbin Baby credit. Both pages also include headshots which should prove it's a different lady as well. |

Civil Registration event: Birth Name: BOYD, Jenna Rebecca Registration District: Wigan County: Lancashire Year of Registration: 1985 Month of Registration: March Mother's Maiden Name: Bannister Volume No: 39 Page No: 2405 Reg No: 385
