Abe Levitow vandalism
Abe Levitow was an American animator who spent the majority for his career at Warner Bros., later at UPA and MGM. There is no online info of him ever having worked at Disney. Yet not only does his IMDb page list him as an uncredited director for two Pluto shorts in the 40s (very believable... he was only an assistant at WB at the time, but also a director at Disney?), but also as the animation director for 326 (!) episodes of the Mickey Mouse Club. There is no info on this in any online biography nor on his official site. I have submitted a deletion (including links) for the two Pluto shorts under #260817-173726-043000, but doing it for the 326 Mickey Mouse Club episodes is too much. Please have a staffer look into this.
(Also included in the submission is a deletion request for the ridiculous trivia item that he was the inspiration for the Simpsons' Grampa. He died in his early fifties and inspired a geriatric character? Obviously there's nothing to be found on this online either)

Hi Zutroy-
Thank you for posting the reference! After further investigating, the submission was already approved and as per the rest of the credits for the Mickey Mouse Club, these have been corrected as well.
The changes will be live on the site shortly.
Cheers!
