Dubbing director as producer

Does IMDb currently accept credits for people who worked on dubbing (for another country) in roles other than voice acting? I saw the name "Z. Charles Bolton" listed as a producer for the anime *You and I Are Polar Opposites*; since it’s an unusual name for Japan, I looked him up and found that he is an American voice actor and voice director.

Should he really be credited as a producer?

Furthermore, the same anime also lists "Audrey Drake Rigg" and "Macy Anne Johnson" in the script credits; both names appear to belong to Americans involved in voice acting rather than the original script.

This is the most common problem for all animations dubbed into English for American release. They just spam all the voice credits into the main data sections which are intended for the original (Japanese in this particular case) release only.

@DuraNext,

I wonder there is no word from you that the main cast is also spammed with the dubbing (American English) credits.
