| Posted: | | | | Quoting ninso4: Quote: Nobody who could help here? I searched in the clt for michelle williams and a third actress with the name showed up: This actress http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3619775/ also is listed in the clt. Luckily for all of us, " Mayor Cupcake" (her only role credited on imdb) isn't out on dvd, or isn't in the database at least. I even remembered to click all regions. EDIT: Googled. Not in database, but is out on dvd. | | | Last edited: by bigdaddyhorse |

| Posted: | | | | Mayor Cupcake is in the database. The us dvd with UPC: 625828-592201. So i will contribute the profiles with the 1980 BY. | | | Think different

| Posted: | | | | just be sure you document the year is correct. This is what we normally use the thread for.... posting a link to the documentation. If it isn't in that thread you still need to provide some. I normally do at least links to 3 sites agreeing with the year. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | here is no explanation for the problem right?
why is the birth year set to 1980 for actress Michelle Williams?
we know Michelle Williams from Destiny's Child has the same BY. and she is credited as Michelle Williams and not as [Destiny's Child] Michelle Williams!
is there a sensible solution? or have we wait until to monday for a new versin of dvdprofiler what solves the problem? | | |

Ehm, one reason for NOT doing this would be that your soultion would only shift the problem from the different Michelle Williams to Beyoncé (Knowles), Kelly Rowland and the Michelle Williams which too was part of "Destiny's Child". Come to think of it: Crosslinks were designed to link variants for de-linking they are quite inappropriate. There are sensible solutions in abundance for this problem (yours is not one of them), but all of them have to be kept local. And I'm quite sure that the Monday which solves this problem will never come. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| Posted: | | | | We have at least 3 people with the name Michelle Williams in the database. 2 of them have the BY 1980. I do not know for which person the BY 1980 originally was contributed. So we have also 2 persons with the BY 1980 in the database. There is no solution to distinguish between them. But we can distinguish at least the Michelle Williams without BY from the other two. | | | Think different

| Posted: | | | | I dont know what your problem is. You should reconside your tone. If this forum had a report function I would use it now. Look at my post in the BY thread. It says Status: Accepted Do you see something like this under my post? Last edited: September 18, 2013 6:07 PM by ninso4 No? That means the BY was already accepted before my post in the BY thread was made. I did not contribute it first, I just made the documentation in the BY thread. | | | Think different

But we can distinguish at least the Michelle Williams without BY from the other two. I've found only owning titles with one of them works rather well. I'd go fake BY locally if I had to, but what is the talk of a new version this week that may fix issues like this? I do have this issue with other names and more than few custom BS BY's that I wouldn't be sad to see go. Plus the pictures distinguish, they look nothing alike! |
