Cause of death - Alzheimer's disease

Currently, there are three cause of death attributes for Alzheimer's disease. Can a staffer please merge (Alzheimer's Disease) and (alzheimer's disease) into (Alzheimer's disease)?

Bump. Perhaps staff forgot about fixing this Alzheimer's disease issue.

The most common early symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events...

Hi, ACT_1. That's a separate problem, but a problem nonetheless. Thanks for the report. Do you mind creating a new GS topic about it?

@ Jeorj Euler

wanted to add before your reply

Change alzheimer's-disease  to Alzheimer's-disease (Person's name)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alois_Alzheimer
Alois Alzheimer (14 June 1864 – 19 December 1915)
credited with identifying the first published case of "presenile dementia",
... would later identify as Alzheimer's disease.



IF a staff member reads the Marco Message s/he will also read mine ??

unless there is a case of  Alzheimer's-disease

Michelle,

What's the best way to report on attributes or job titles/occupations in which the data was submitted in upper case or all caps or mispellings? Specifically, when there are multiple items that need to be corrected.

This has not been solved, only the keyword issue has been solved. Can a staffer look at this again please?

Hi All -

I'm just following up here to confirm that the Keywords have been merged, also the multiple death cause listings have now been adjusted to "Alzheimer's disease".  If you encounter any further similar attribute issues with duplication's or grammatical errors, you are welcome to request a fix by posting here in Get Satisfaction.  Cheers!

Currently, we have the following situation:
Can this be fixed and can someone make sure this won't happen again?



(if in a week or so a staffer won't respond to this because it has been marked as Solved, I'll post it again all fresh, but I do think it's much neater and better if no new threads are made for a topic that already has a thread. It's a pity IMDb doesn't seem to agree with this logic and doesn't want to read all the messages their contributors write to better their database.)

Unfortunately, we don't. The advanced name search (https://www.imdb.com/search/name/) has a possibility to search for date of death as well as place of death, but not for the cause of death.

Maybe Michelle, Official Rep will return to read this and add to the advanced name search
Cause of death: [ Coronavirus disease ]
 
or maybe not. :-(
GS sent this to her email today ? ?

This problem still isn't fixed.
So, here are some questions I have:
-Can the tag Solved be changed to In Progress?
-Can a staffer actually fix this problem? It's been two years since I first posted it, so one would think you guys would've had time to fix it.
-Can nobody please tell me to start a new thread? I did that and it got shut down pretty quickly: https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/cause-of-death-alzheimers-disease-thread-two
-Can a staffer tell me how the above relates to the Contributors Charter?
