I didn't forget them, I just ignored them. They are, for the record, all copies of the same film, 'The Bourne Identity', where the credit is simply entered incorrectly.

I understand better why you find the database perfect. When it contains errors, you "just" ignore them.

What do users who download profiles concerned by those errors really get?

What are you going on about? I'd say that about 95% of the profiles in the database has at least one, but probably lots more errors. I don't understand what that has to do with the parsing of Violetta Gräfin Tarnowska Bronner, or with anything else for that matter. Hardly any profile is perfect. So what do users who download profiles really get? Well, sometimes you get a good profile, and sometimes you don't. Hopefully, as time moves on, more mistakes get corrected, but I can promise you now that it won't all be done tomorrow. All in all: what's your point? And again: why hijack a perfectly simple parsing thread with all this?

Well... ???
This is right  ?
This is wrong ?
I love this ?
I hate this ?

This means nothing 

I will not attempt to ridicule you, as you did me.  Instead, I will assume it is because English is not your native language that you didn't understand, and attempt to explain it.  When used in the way I used it, it simply mean, "Nothing else needs to be said."  I could have used 'exactly' or 'QFT' or 'agreed'.

QFT = Quoted for truth
ACK = Acknowledgement
ITA = I totally agree

[Star Wars]I've got a bad feeling about this.[/Star Wars]

It's one thing to cut things off from the start or the end of the name (and even there are tricky cases [Professor Tanaka]), but to cut things out from the middle just because they look similar to a title?

Are we dropping all the "Don"s from spanish names, too (What about Don Johnson then )?

Couldn't agree more if i tried! As i said in the German Honorific threat

Quote:
If i saw Baron Philipp von Boeselager i'd use the Honorific rule,
if i saw Philipp von Boeselager, Baron of Munich (just making someting up), i'd use the honorific rule. But now, this being in the middle of his name, i'd just presume it's his name.
