Yes, I'd say that qualifies for a "make-up effects" credit.

agreed

Quote:
I came across this last night "Make-up Effects Supervisor" and wondered if it would be allowed by the rules.

Evidently not.

On personnel preference, I would also agree, but ... 

... In the "credited as" coloumn of the credit chart is for Make-Up Effects no credit with supervisor included.
In all other crew credits where we accept a Supervisor as credit, it's included in the "credited as" coloumn.
-> So no credit we track.

I agree, Makeup Effects Supervisor = Makeup Effects credit.

Like I wanted to say.    But you wrote it much better, goblinsgoitall. 

Quoting CubbyUps:

Heck if you wanted to follow the rules to a "T' then a VFX Supervisor wouldn't be allowed either since that specific wording isn't in the rules either.

You need to differentiate between different wordings and different jobs.
We have a "Visual Effects Supervisor" named in the rules, where the VFX Supervisor would only be a different spelling, and by this I wouldn't object to "Make-up FX" either.
But a "Supervisor" is a different job than the ordinary "Effects"-man.
And the rules make it quite easy here:

Quote:
The table below gives each of the crew roles available within DVD Profiler. For each category, include only those people credited with the roles listed in the "Role" and "Credited As" columns. If someone is not credited with one of these roles (or direct translations of these roles), do not include them in the Crew section.

Let's look at Greg Nicotero.

According to http://wapedia.mobi/en/Greg_Nicotero he is credited as special makeup effects supervisor in the following movies.

Tales from the Darkside: The Movie
The People Under the Stairs
Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings
Lord of Illusions
Scream
Boogie Nights
Scream 2
The Green Mile
The Haunting
The Cell
Unbreakable
Vanilla Sky
Vampires: Los Muertos
Bubba Ho-tep
Cabin Fever
Identity
Once Upon a Time in Mexico
Kill Bill: Vol. 1
Riding the Bullet
Ray
Sin City
Land of the Dead
Serenity
Disturbia


And of those, Boogie Nights, Bubba Ho-tep, The Cell, Sin City, The Green Mile, Kill Bill: Vol. 1, Land of the Dead, Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings, Ray, Scream, Scream 2, Serenity, Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, Unbreakable, Vanilla Sky and The Haunting are all in the database (according to the CLT) as having Makeup Effects credit.

If Wapedia is correct and all of these credits have Supervisor in the job title then I guess all of these credits should be removed??
