If an actor name is only a first name or stage name enter it entirely in the first name field. Examples are Cher, Madonna, Cedric the Entertainer & Queen Latifah. seems to dictate otherwise? | | | | Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted.

If he were credited simply as Toru Tanaka I would agree. However, the Professor part aligns it more closely with the likes of "Queen Latifa". I'd enter it entirely in the first name field. | | | | Hal |
