I just want to make sure I'm not missing something.
There wasn't a whole "rules clarification" somewhere in the forums that allowed for the credit of Sound Effects Editor (or slight variants such as Effects Editor listed with the rest of the sound crew or in the case of at least one film I've seen, Sound Design Editor) to be credited in profiles under Sound Editor, was there?
The contributable roles are still just the ones in the rules? Sound Editor and Dubbing Editor.
I don't spend as much time on the forums these days and I've tried searching, but am coming up empty handed.
I'm seeing a lot of newer movies I'm adding to my collection (usually cloned from U.S. profiles to be honest) contain these credits. So far I've been removing them, but if I missed something, I'll stop removing them. | | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. | | | | Last edited: by Merrik |

| | Posted: | | | | Correct, the rules still define what to list.
... and further more I think poeple around here started to realize more is not always better and step back from increasing the sheer number of listable crew members... | | | | Complete list of Common Names • A good point for starting with Headshots (and v11.1) | | | | Last edited: by AiAustria |

| | Posted: | | | | On a related note, I found some sound effects editor's are also credited in other films as sound crew that we do track like sound designers, editors and the like.
For that reason I do track sound effects editor's locally. |

I actually have a ton of custom local credits for Sound Effects Editor in mine as well, (but I've never contributed one under Sound Editor before) as I've found what you've found, that some definitely do cross over roles with what we track. Again though, I keep them all custom and don't contribute. Okay, well, sounds good. I took another look just to make sure I wasn't missing anything (I did find a common name thread that T!M had started, that I missed before, that seems to indicate at least one or two people are continually submitting these credits under different roles as there was a crap ton of invalid credits listed in the thread) and didn't come across anything. I'll keep removing them and voting no on them when I see them submitted (although I find that doesn't make a difference as I know about a year ago I voted no to the contribution I mentioned earlier where someone submitted a Sound Design Editor as a Sound Editor and it was approved anyway).
