While doing some research on actor Richard Leech I came across an entry in the CLT for the following in the movie The Prince and Me. Only two profiles for Prince and Me list him in the CLT.

Richard Leech as Student #1

The other Richard Leech was born in 1922 and died in 2004. I really doubt that an elderly man would be playing a student.

The problem is that IMDB doesn't list a Richard Leech for The Price and Me, I even did a google search and no database lists that actor with that movie.

So is the Prince and Me credit correct?

I just did a quick visual check of "The Prince and Me", and there's no Richard Leech credited at all, not even in the IMDB list. There's a "Richard Lee as Deli Patron", but that's it.  I'll get those corrected.
My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it!

I confirm. A Richard Lee, but no Richard Leech.

Thanks.

So it looks like no BY is needed at all for Richard Leech.

Sorry of having to insist,
since it's unlikely that two contributors independently produce the same typo this may count as a good example why cloning and the resulting unconditional acceptance of data should not be allowed. It simply multiplies errors.

In this case it wasn't that bad, only two profiles were affected ... but it easily might have been much more.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Well, Gerard Depardieu is wrongly (with typo) credited in 250 profiles, and correctly in 1102... So your reasoning must forget something...
