Attributes should not be used when determing if a credit is a duplicate entry.

This may be a tricky subject when considering that writers don't have an "occupation" field and the attribute does distinguish the credit, but so does the order number. All too often, I see duplicate credits where one has an attribute and the other doesn't but they are actual duplications. For example, this credit:

There is nothing unique about these two credits and whichever one was added second should have been rejected.

Hi Adrian -

I am unable to see the duplicate Director credit on the name page, so the duplicate credit appears to have since been removed.

Generally, the attribute should remain empty for Director credits.  If you have seen other recent examples of this type of credit duplication, can you post some of them on this thread for our staff to investigate further?
