| | Posted: | | | | There's a movie up to vote right now, where the person is adding a birth year using this as his contribution notes: Quote:
Added birth year to prevent confusion with other (older) Joe Flynn in the database. Info from various web sites and movie pr site. How should I vote? Is this enough? I've pm'd him/her for more confirmation (web addies of where they found this info) but they haven't replied yet. My instinct is to say no, that there isn't enough sources for this change, however, I'm hesitant to do so just in case this is enough and I'm being to picky. I'm almost positive I'll be the only one voting on this (before this, I'd swear I was the only one who owned this as I was the only one who subitted the profile and any information for it) so want to give this a fair review. Thanks! Lori | | | | Lori |

Lori Vote no. That statement is NOT supporting Documentation. | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

Agree Yep! And if you can find it, note it in your Yes vote reason. |

| | Posted: | | | | I'll take a look, but part of the problem is I have no idea who the actor is or who the other actor is either. Plus, even if I do find the information and place it in the yes box, this will NOT be part of the permanent record of the profile, which is why I had asked them to update their contribution notes with it... | | | | Lori |

Exactly. Just saying that you're adding a birth year for Joe Blow to prevent confusion with the other Joe Blow is not proper documentation  . Who are these 2 Joe Blows? What sources were used to verify this birth year? | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | I agree with Max and LJG. Yes vote comments do not become part of the permanent record. The contributor has to include the documentation. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Like Max I would vote No as well. Documentation is required to be part of the permanent record.

| | Posted: | | | | would get a no vote from me as well... the user didn't document anything there. The correct year of if there is indeed 2 separate people with the same name.
I whole-heartedly believe if someone is putting something up for vote it is their responsibility to document it... not mine as a voter to find the documentation myself. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | Thanks for the help, guys. Voted no. They've read my pm and have made no effort to contact me or change the contribution notes and, to be frank, I don't feel that the burdon of proof is on me to prove that his/her info is correct. And it sounds like most of you agree with that...  I guess we'll see if it gets approved or not in the next day or two... | | | | Lori |
