| | Posted: | | | | While using the Name Variants plugin to clean up some Japanese cast & crew errors, I also stumbled onto this one: John Bartley / John S. Bartley in the crew section.
I've noticed that even in the same set (Lost season 1 to name just one), he's sometimes credited as one and sometimes as the other. Obviously this is the same person. CLT came up with this:
"John Bartley" is credited in the following 151 titles (223 profiles)
"John S. Bartley" is credited in the following 186 titles (326 profiles)
Would I be allowed to change the credits where he is credited as "John Bartley", to "John S. Bartley, credited as: John Bartley"?
Just wanted to check here before I submit any profile changes online. | | | Blu-ray collection

Yes! Thanks for the reply. Oooh boy, I have a lot of work ahead of me. This is just one example but I found quite a few of these issues. Any way (perhaps with a plugin) to batch edit this instead of doing it one credit at a time? | | | Blu-ray collection
