Contribution approved but incomplete on IMDB

Hi everyone! I made a contribution to add a cast member to a film. The cast/crew member did not have an existing IMDB profile. The contribution was approved and since then I have seen that a profile has been made for that person, however it is not linked to the film, and has not appeared in the cast/crew list.Should I add a new contribution to the profile or wait and the profile will be linked to the film in due course?

Hi @mccauel, I can see that the credit has been approved. So there is no need to re-submit anything. However, please refer to the FAQ in our Adding filmography credits Help guide: The credit shows as approved but it's not on the page All credits on the page are 'uncredited' - Our display logic requires at least one fully credited listing on a name page before anything will show. This means if a page has only uncredited listings it will appear empty, even if your addition has been approved. Once a fully credited position is added to the page, all (uncredited) data will also appear.You can learn more about "uncredited" in our article What does uncredited mean? I hope this helps!

Is there a way to have it listed in the film? As documents and picture evidence were provided to prove the person was involved. I am referring to Elysha McCauley, stunt doubling for Florence Pugh in We Live in Time. SPACTs are often uncredited in films, so she may never credited. Will the profile be listed in We Live In Time, as other uncredited stunt doubles have been.

Hi @mccauel, If the individual was not credited on-screen, we cannot change the credit for it to be listed on the title or name page. As explained in the FAQ and per our uncredited credits policies, the credit would only display on either if the individual were to have an on-screen credit added to IMDb. For example, you will see that the uncredited stunt double(s) on We Live in Time also have "fully credited" credits on their name pages, which is why they're listed in the full cast and crew for this title. Thank you for your understanding!

why is this the case, if all evidence has been provided?

Hi @mccauel, Sorry, this is not a matter of whether evidence has been supplied. We have approved the credit, as we have verified you've worked on the title. But it is our display logic which requires at least one fully credited listing on a name page before anything will show there. This is our policy for uncredited credits, and is not subject to change based on any individual case(s). Thanks!
