Question about Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z

IMDB has two separate pages for Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. In another post here, it was stated that this was intentional because the American version is heavily edited and ends up becoming a different version.

Considering this, I have two questions:

1 - In the Japanese versions, should the American voice actors (dubbing) be removed, since they didn't dub for that version but for the edited one?

2 - In the American versions, should the performers be listed as "cast" instead of "voice actors," since that page is exclusive to the American version and they are the original performers for that version?

Dragon Ball:

Dragon Ball Z:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0121220

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0214341

@geeked_out_4_movies​ In that case, I think you could add the correct voice actors by including the references for those DVDs (and the credits for the episodes on them), while not including the voice actors from the other versions in the original series.

Regarding the Original Dragon Ball, I think they are treating this the same as Yu gi oh, since one is edited and other is Uncut?? 

for Dragon Ball Z, the 291 episode count is the uncut version

and the other is the edited version with the Ocean Group dub of VA  which later became uncut and was dubbed by Ocean Productions.

Someone already added Dubbing actors to 'Additional Crew', that is under the wrong section https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088509/fullcredits/?ref_=tt_ov_ql_1  these need to get moved.
