Just out of curiosity who of these would you include in the Cast list, also would you use a Group Divider for Jones and Steele or individual credits?

Jones and Steele with a divider would reflect the credits the best imho.
Also I'd include D. Mears.

On the second screencap, I'd just include the pupeteers.

I've added Jones and Steele without dividers and Mears too.
I've let out the puppeteers.

I don't see how you can use a divider for Jones and Steele as there isn't one in the credits.  I would give them individual credits with multiple roles.  I would also include Mears and Fitzgerald.  I don't think the pupeteers are allowed as they are not included in the 'end credits' as defined by the rules.

Me neither. People really need to stop using dividers when their use really isn't called for...

I totally agree.  I would think the puppeteers wouldnt be considered part of the "cast". maybe they are?

From what I gather, he was performing stunts while in the suit.  That means he played an actual Predator so, in my opinion, should be part of the cast.

As the screeners have been told to accept profiles that are mostly correct, this is going to be happening more and more.  The only thing I can suggest, because it is what Ken suggested, is to submit a change to remove them with detailed notes.

We can't enter puppeteers unless they are included in the end credits as definded by the rules.  In this case, because they are listed in their own section and not included in the end credits, they can't be entered.  That, at least, is how I read the rule.

I can see two actors with one role description, (descripted in wordin) which is like having (optical)
Berserker Predator, Tr. Pr. & Fa. Pr.            Carey L. Jones
                                                              Brian Steele
Which I think most would say it'a a credit to use a divider.

Option B, would I think yours suggested, one single credit with two actors and one role description, which gets divided for entering in DVDP:
Carey L. Jones    Berserker Predator, Tr. Pr. & Fa. Pr.
Brian Steele      Berserker Predator, Tr. Pr. & Fa. Pr.

If we see it as option B, leads also to a third option. One single credit with two actors and three roles, which would be in DVDP:
Carey L. Jones    Berserker Predator
Carey L. Jones    Tr. Pr.
Carey L. Jones    Fa. Pr.
Brian Steele    Berserker Predator
Brian Steele    Tr. Pr.
Brian Steele    Fa. Pr.

This is something I could buy, but it is the same as with stunt people: When including, when not. Perhaps clear for some, but for the majority hard to decide.

So it's only possible to enter them as uncredited... and as prove "they are credited in the movie credits at time code xx:xx:xx"

looking at the screen print, I would have counted the puppeteers as being in the end credits?

Just because they are so important that they are listed under the other actors in their own section with a group header shouldn't exclude them should it?

I would include the puppeteers since they are listed in the end credits. Where they appear in those end credits is irrelevant in my opinion.

I would view it the same, they do appear in the end credits regardless of their section. Many times in the "end credits" of films the cast appears in different sections itself (i.e. main cast/crew/additional cast), and we don't skip over adding those.
