Just wanted to do a slight update to say that I've actually completed a full update of three different titles, JFK, Malcolm X and Nixon which all contained a bunch of archive footage credited cast members, all of which I removed. I just submitted the last of these three submissions (so far none have any votes on them, two though are Canadian locality, so they're less likely to receive votes, the third, Nixon, is the U.S. locality profile, so that's the best gauge) and I guess we'll see how it pans out with the voters & screeners.

I do think an update to the rules should come through though, stating specifically whether or not archive footage cast members should be allowed, and if there's any exceptions which should be made (such as in the case of Contact or Forrest Gump where the characters in the film are actually made to interact with the archive footage cast members).
