You still abused your vote, you are WRONG.

You have proven one thing to me today, whatever interpretation is applied to the Rules if it is not yours then it is not right. I will be watching very closely.

Out

Skip

The EXACT same can be said for you in this.

He didn't abuse his vote. Period.

No James there was NO LINKED name in this file. It was simply changing an INCORRECT entry to AS CREDITED. You don't get it I am not surprised and I could care less, You were wrong PERIOD, end of subject. Drop it.

Skip

There was no linkage showing, James, perhaps Ken needs to address this, sounds like a possible tweak on his side, else I would not have changed it, I think you know that. All it looked like to me was an incorrect entry. Is ther something I missed in what I saw there was no Credited As reference, just John/Hughes>>>>Edmond/Dante

That said you don't want me start discussing well-known who cast votes to accept incorrect UPC #s on images, and Incorrect Ordering of Studios to name two.

The linkage is the name. It doesn't show or not show. It's the name. Names link to names when they are the same. There's no tweak needed. To access the 'credited as', edit the role. Those who have the current profile for Maid in Manhattan, when they click on John Hughes, they see the other credits for John Hughes in their collection. If your contribution had been accepted and downloaded by those users, the link would be broken.

Huh! I am not talking about that. I am talking about what I saw on the eval screen only, James There was no apparent linkage, it simply looked as I described it. If a link had been apparent on the eval screen I would not have changed.

You are thinking of the link as only being present when the name and 'credited as' are different. That's what you see in the eval screen. But that's not evidence of a link.

Any name is already a link to any other same name.

DVDP 2.4/2.5:
Name = As Credited

DVDP 3.0:
Name = Link = Common Name = Person's Name

Credited As = As Credited

Note that whereas before Name used to equal "As Credited", that is no longer the case. The name is the link.

The place to input 'As Credited' data has been moved. It's now stored in the 'Credited As' field.

I agree with your concept Unicus. The problem for Skip and I is that we're currently PM-impaired. That contributed to this dust up for sure.

Well now we are back to the beginning. There is NOWHERE in the Rules that says our entries must be complete, else I would vote no on nearly everbody because after all they are not doing Full Audits. And as I explained in my discussion about studios if the user enters WDP and does not include BVHE, the Rules say to include the distributor if there is room. If James is correct, and I have yet to see Ken back him up on his interpretation, then I have to re-evaluate my own voting if the data is accurate but incomplete then I must vote No.

I am sorry Unicus, that just seems completely wrong to me. There was as I outlined a way James could have handled it that would have gotten the deisred result. But no user has the right to demand more of any other user than he is willing to provide, as long as the data was correct, which it was.

And allow me to point out that the rules still begin with

"Take Crew Credits from the film credits only; list names exactly as they are in the credits."

What offends me, Unicus is that Janmes and Lopek held a Contribution to try impose their will upon another user. They have the ability to go do the work dig up the documentation and add the non-existent linkage. James just wanted ME to go do moer work so he could get it as he wanted it, now maybe I am wrong I have never gotten a check from James that entitles him or anyone else to make that demand of a fellow volunteer.
