when I see people shooting on IMDb and praise the quality of Invelos database, I can't help myself to explain where is really the rubbish, and why.

When I can browse IMDB for a few minutes and find scores of actors with roles of "Bit Part" and "Minor Role" then I also know where the rubbish is.  And the sad fact is that lots of it has found its way into DVD Profiler's online database.

There is no database function (searching, sorting, filtering, linking...) for roles. So roles that do not match credits have strictly no consequence. And I do not see the interest of the conformity to credits in itself, if it doesn't help database functions to work properly.

Nor do I understand the obsession with "correct" spelling.

As I said before... it all depends what you are looking for. Where imdb may work perfectly for your wants and needs... it sucks for mine. For what I am looking for imdb IS pure rubbish.... it isn't for you... that is great! I am thrilled for you. But that don't change my opinion of the site. Nor does it take away my right to state my opinion of the site.

Just because something isn't important to you don't mean it isn't important to others.
