So for the first time I'm attempting to make some crew contributions, as taken from the end credits.

I've got a person labeled as "Executive Producer", so that's easy, but there's a "Line Producer" with no producer.

Currently I have this in Production -> Producer -> Custom Role -> Line Producer

Should I check "other" versus "Producer"?

Other mysteries:

On-Line Editor
Graphics
Still Photographer

Also: I saw what looks like a potential writing credit ...

One easy way to determine if something is addressed or allowed for contribution is to load the Contribution Rules.
Set it to "Printable Version," lower left side. This treats the rules as one page. Now you can use your brower's "find" option. If you find the role in the Credits section it will indicate whether or not if it is contributed item.

If it is not memtion, then it is generaly not a contributed option.

At this time Line Profucer is not a contributable role.
nor are:
On-Line Editor
Graphics
Still Photographer

We all seem to have some trouble with one role or the other with some file credits.
In life, We seem to love titles, I never liked them, management like to issue tiles, I prefered the money.
It seems like we are aways invening new titles.
We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own.

Executive Producer is the only credit that can be contributed.

Not a writing credit, but it sounds like it might be a song writing credit.  I can't say more with ought some context.

In that case, since the credit breaks down to 'writtnen by' and 'performed by', she would get a written by credit in Profiler.

I'd say no since that would put them on the same level as Mamet. Leave them out or use custom roles for your local.

That just means someone entered them incorrectly and they should be removed.
