Corruption of cast credits
There is a prolific contributor who corrupts cast lists by adding fake secondary characters and frequently changes the order. For example, if the credits list:
John Doe ... John
Sally Jones ... Sally
Jane Doe ... Jane
He'll change it to:
John Doe ... John/Jane's husband
Jane Doe ... Jane/John's wife
Sally Jones ... Sally/John and Jane's neighbor
This was mentioned by another user last July.
These are only some of the reference numbers. I have similar corrections going back to 2018 which are likely from the same person.

Hi @ind3 -
Thanks for reporting and including all these submission reports. I investigated and identified a single contributor responsible for the ongoing character name changes. I have taken the appropriate steps to address the issue and help prevent future errors, however, if you see a resurfacing of this issue, let us know and we can then investigate further.
Thanks again!

Hi @ind3 -
Just circling back to confirm that I have identified the issue and resolved it, so you shouldn't be seeing these ongoing character name changes any further.
Thanks again for your patience and your reporting!
