Page merge - do I have to merge all credits?

I'm attempting to merge two pages for someone whose credits have been spread over two different pages.  I know how to do a standard name merge, but this one has an added issue I'd like to address. One of the credits on one of the pages is erroneous. (The page owner has a common name and whoever added this credit added it to his page in error, years ago. I have tried to have IMDB remove this credit, but since I can't prove it was erroneously added, they understandably won't remove it.) I know that when one does a name merge, one can decide not to merge all the info (bio, credits, etc). So I was wondering if it's possible to not merge the erroneous credit, or do all credits have to be merged automatically?  Many thanks!

Hi @pete_vstot, Thank you for your report. The credit has now been removed from the incorrect name page. For reference, it's not possible to merge part of the credits listing without moving the credit to another page. The credit you attempted to delete has now been moved to a new name page, so you can now merge the two name pages without the erroneous credit for either page being involved. For additional guidance, please see our guidelines for merging name pages and merging credits. Cheers!
