Was it a new profile?
Indeed it was. Those aren't being voted on, so only Invelos "evaluates" them - either by a bot or by an actual human. If it had been an update to an existing profile, it would have likely have been voted down.

[...] anything goes in the first approval.
It would seem so, yes. Note that this isn't a one-off mistake - I'm seeing many of these. For initial contributions, it really does seem that it doesn't matter at all what you write in your contribution notes. I've seen people enter a just pun, or just a single word (like "New!"), and that's enough to get it approved. For those initial contributions, there seems to be no need at all anymore to mention where the cast/crew came from. And, as this example shows: even if you're so honest to admit that it's IMDb-mined data, even then that's apparently no problem. | Posted: Topic Replies: 17, Topic Views: 7575 |

If they are using bots to screen profile updates, then anything mentioning IMDb should be automatically and immediately flagged to be assessed by humans who know the rules.
Indeed. But clearly that's not happening. | Posted: Topic Replies: 17, Topic Views: 7575 |

| I can only assume these are automatically being approved by bots. I can't imagine how a human Invelos screener would actually make this mistake - especially as this isn't the first time I'm seeing this. And besides those, most IMDb-scraped data actually gets in the database while claiming it all came "from the credits" when it clearly didn't. At least this user is flat out honest about it... | Posted: Topic Replies: 17, Topic Views: 7575 |

| As for seasons two to six of 'Father Knows Best': none of those credits have made it into the database as of yet, right? Profiles for those seasons exist, but they don't have full sets of cast/crew yet. If and when those cast lists have been accepted into the database, they can be included in this list. | Posted: Topic Replies: 5, Topic Views: 2980 |

I wanted to establish the common name for actor Jimmy/James Bates. There are several other people named James Bates in the database, but note that this one only acted between 1944 and 1973 - any credits after that do not belong to *this* Mr. Bates.

I wanted to establish the common name for British actor Wayne/Adam Morris. His real name is Adam Morris, but he initially went by "Wayne Morris" as there was already an Adam Morris in Equity. Since 2001, however, he's consistently using "Adam Morris". So if he keeps working, "Adam" may, at some point, win out - but that tipping point is not in sight anytime soon:
