Cast Attributes
Posted by tim in Uncategorized on August 28th, 2009
This is just by way of being a quick reminder that we only allow a small number of “attributes” (the qualifying bit in parentheses) for cast credits.
Acceptable attributes for cast credits are:
- (uncredited)
- (credit only)
- (archive footage)
- (archive sound)
- (singing voice)
- (unconfirmed)
- (rumored)
- (scenes deleted)
- (as ……)
- (also as …..)
- (voice)
- (voice: <language> version) – Where language is simply the name of the language in question, eg Japanese/English/German etc.
We no longer accept any other (attributes) for cast entries so things like these should not be used:
- Attached
- In Negotiations
- In Talks
- Guest Star
- Any standalone date, i.e. (2009)
- Any date range, i.e. (1998-2001)
- Any TV series info, i.e (Season 8, 9 and 10)
Contribution ideas – plots and episode data
If you’ve a hankering to submit some data but don’t have a specific project in mind, we could really use some help in filling in the holes in our TV episode data.
We’ve a list in the Contributors Zone which shows TV series with missing stuff (plots, cast, crew, episode titles, etc, etc). So if you happen to be a fan and have any of those series on DVD, that’s where to find out what’s missing.
If you’re a keen plot submitter (or would like to be), try this list of popular titles with no plot information. We need plot outlines (two lines to give a flavour of the episode – the sort of thing you’d see in a TV listings magazine), plot summaries (a paragraph giving a more detailed idea of the plot but with no spoilers – the sort of thing you might want to read if you couldn’t make up your mind whether to watch), and plot synopses (ideally a complete scene-by-scene description of everything that happens).
