| Posted: | | | | Quoting Rules: Quote: For any film with standard credits, take the actor information from the end credits only, with names and roles listed exactly as they are in the credits and in exactly the same order credited. Exception: If the credit information is entirely capitalized, use standard capitalization rules instead.
Use the "Credited As" field where the actor's name differs from the credited name. Question: Which one of the poll options is the correct way to enter the subject's actor information into DVD Profiler if the real name of the actor is François? Edit: The u's in Françouis or Francouis are not supposed to be in the options. | | | Martin Zuidervliet

| Posted: | | | | I too, am a tad confused by your poll options. If it could be shown that he real name is François, then that is what I would enter. In a case like this, the CLT is of no use as it may have been polluted by people who don't know that 'C' can be represented by 'ç'. This answer assumes that you are talking about how to enter "FRANCOIS' into profiler. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| Posted: | | | | Sorry I don't get the premise. From what I understood in the credits you found a FRANCOUIS, who's real name is François and you now wnt to know how to submit this? | | | 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: | | | | Your poll is flawed. Simply list as you see it whatever that might be, do NOT add ANY extra data which does NOT appear ON SCREEN. Also do not remove any data which might appear on screen. If you then want to use the Alias system to pick up on François or any other name of this nature, with proper documentation you can do that.

Skip Time to change the record Skip. Just because you see 'FRANCOIS' as 'Francois doesn't mean everybody does. Some people will see it as 'François'. Unfortunately, for some reason, you can't seem to grasp that little fact. Continuing to say, "simply list as you see it," makes no sense...though I expect you will ignore that fact. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| Posted: | | | | A the rules do not specify which standard to use (it is specified for titles) neither "ç" or "c" are against the rules.
Personally I would enter it with a "ç", but I would not attempt to change an existing profile with "c" as I do not find a change from one valid interpretation of the rules to another valid interpretation of the rules to be significent (and according to the rules you shoould not make updates that are not significent).
"Credited as" would be used like any other name variation to determine the correct use (credit lookup etc). | | | Regards Lars |
