one more thing about duplicates

Okay, dudes, I didn't think I needed to say this but today's investigations have proven me wrong. Lend me your eyeballs for a moment and check out this little piece of advice: Please never, ever add the words "do not use" or "delete" to the end of a duplicate ID's actor name, even if all the credits have been transferred (and especially if they haven't). Imagine if you were an actor looking for work, and a potential employer Googled your name and saw "TV.com member - DELETE, DO NOT USE," or even if you just Googled yourself and found that. Not such a warm and fuzzy feeling, right? If you must change something, a short explanation in the bio field will do. (end of mean teacher voice) We heartily appreciate your efforts here, and want to make the whole process as problem-free as possible for everyone involved. That means you, us, and also the actors. Sound good? Thanks again to all for your help with the credit transferals and the reporting of duplicate IDs. They're lining up for a trip to the big database in the sky! -Lila
