I'm still getting a handle on this - I'm sorry if this has been raised before but I can not find it.

2001: A Space Odyssey does not have any roles assigned to its Cast. But, roles were found from outside sources and accepted into the database.

Should these actors, who are grouped together in the credits but without roles, be given a Group divider "Apes"?

If i don't see headers in the film credits i don't add headers.

The outside source credits may come from several sources, all more difficult to validate than those on screen.  Adding headers to the profile based on outside source implies a level of certainty and intent that doesn't exist.

I personally wouldn't add them for the reasons already given. The only time I would is if the details came from the official film website.

There is no provision, in the rules, for adding dividers that are not in the credits.  If they aren't there, we don't create them.

I would not be adverse to the adding of group dividers, but if you are going strictly by the rules, then I agree with this...

However, Jimmy does have a good idea with:

Perhaps this is something that can be discussed in the rules forum as an addition to the current guidelines?

I never noticed that before, Kathy. I must have cut the film off as soon as it was over.

I say forget about dividers and remove the credits altogether since adding the credits to Profiler makes them not match the film credits






(I'm joking of course.)

ROFLMAO

Since you find this so funny, you must believe that the rules allow for creating data, other than roles, that don't exist in the credits.  Please provide the rule that allows it so that we can all see it.  I have read this rule, several times, and it isn't there.

Sorry Skip, I deal with this kind of stuff at work, I am not going to deal with it here.  If you have an answer provide it.  If not, well...I won't play.
