Made me curios DJ... I pulled out the first disc of season four. And you are right she isn't credited in either of those 2 episodes. I believe she isn't even in either of those 2 episodes either... so that is a good thing. But Thanks... my profile needed correcting!

Did you put in your notes that this was taken from the credits? if so you can try pointing them to this thread.

Yep, I did both. Wrote that she is spelled that way in the episodes and copied the link to this discussion.

Then it sounds like you have people not voting correctly per Rules. What did they write in their no votes?

I didn't know that I can see their comments. Just found out:

The no-votes are not about Renee. It's about a different actor - Tamati Rice. I did nothing but press the 'replace' option on Renee O'Connor. It's impossible that I did any change to that actor  but I've also noticed that his last name was maked as being changed when I uploaded the edited profiles. But he was spelled the same so I didn't care very much.

Very strange . Should I withdraw and try again? But since I did nothing to him I have no idea on how to avoid that problem.

Look closely: since the system marks that name as changed, there must be a difference. See if you can spot it - and maybe the no-votes can help you in pointing out what the difference is. It could, for instance, be a parsing issue, the attachment of a birth year, or even just a difference in capitalisation. These are typical things that can be included as part of your contribution even when you didn't touch that particular cast member just now.

If you post the EAN-code (barcode) of the profile, and the contribution still stands, then I'd be more than happy to take a look and try to explain what the problem is.

Yeah... there could be a few things that is wrong. Like Tim said... post the barcode number and we can look to see what we see.

One of the guys also said that it is a parsing problem but I have to admit that I don't know what that means. Here is what he wrote:

"I think you entered wrong name parsing for Tamati Rice, should be first and last name as with Lucy Lawless"

Xena season 5 & 6, the ones I've edited:
9-120027-343834
9-120027-343841

I don't have any other DVD with that actor except Xena. In case it might matter here are the EAN for the other seasons he is in:

Xena season 2 and 3 wich I've NOT edited:
9-120027-343162
9-120027-343339

Filtering for him brings up all four seasons in my collection.

Are you sure you have those UPC (EAN) numbers right? Neither one brings up anything.

I tried to bring up your online listing to get the UPCs there... but all I can see is your wishlist.

You have to allow region 2 - germany

BTW DJ Doena seems to have the same problem with a whole buch of actors for season 4. I guess he did nothing but remove Renee O'Connor from episode 1 & 2 but there are a lot of actors marked as being changed.

Season 4 EAN

I've had a look at one of your contributions, and that no-vote indeed tells you exactly what the problem is. You have Tamati Rice's name listed entirely in the first name field, while it should be "Tamati" in the first name field, and "Rice" in the last name field. I understand that you think "but I didn't even touch that one", but unfortunately, things aren't that simple.

What happens is that the program is designed to "protect" your local database against unwanted parsing changes. Effectively, that means that if you already have a Tamati Rice// entry (all in the first name field), as you apparently did, and you download a profile which (correctly) has it as Tamati//Rice (split over the first and last name fields), the system keeps your local value. So even though you didn't change that particular name, your local value is still different from the online simply because you already had a Tamati Rice// entry (all in the first name field). You need to edit that cast member, move "Rice" to the last name field, and then re-contribute. Íf you do that, you'll no longer see a change in the Tamati Rice entries - just the Renee O'Connor changes - and then you probably won't get no-votes anymore.

You're changing Tamati//Rice to Tamati Rice//

You need to edit the cast member and correct the parsing (move Rice to last name),  and then resubmit your Renee change

Alright, Thank you very much T!M and jmbox. I'll do that. But only for season 5 & 6. There seems to be  lot more of this problem in season 4 (good luck DJ  )
