Someone adds himself to multiple movies as production designer, despite not being officially credited for.

@mbmb​ I mean he can be a graphic designer for the movie posters at his local movie distribution site in the arab region, but still doesn't make him part of the official production team. The guy who directs people to their parking lot at the studios, isn't credited as co-director on the movie which get shot there either.

My guess is the IMDB check doesn't work because they might think the production designer is not part of the core team of a movie (which it is), but I don't know.

But I don't get payed to look up every credit he was added for and update it, so I think this is a case for someone at IMDB.

@EDE​ Most likely he's not even doing that. Amount of fake credits, fake profile and data being added to IMDb lately is huge. There is even a reason for that count of credits on this fake page (that's the number in Twitter's blue badge application requirements)

Even when someone voluntary like us does all the legwork for that staff who gets "paid", they often do things like stalling, ignoring, dismissing like here where I wasted so much time with looking up lots of credits and staff insist to stall and keep the fake profile (they couldn't produce a single evidence for their "beliefs" in the meantime): https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/fake-actor/62bec4bbfe9565530571cf9d?commentId=62c5ebd9f9105568c149dce3&replyId=62ce31a3ee0dfc016ae57dbf

I like browsing the IMDB, heck my first time encounter with IMDB was an offline version in the early 90s on CD and became an instant fan of it. But IMDB isn't the fan project any more as it was in the 90s.

It's the dominant movie credentials related database and it's such a typical Jeff Bezos thing to exploit voluntaries for it, despite asking for money for IMDB Pro since 2002.

Maybe it's destined that this database should get exploited and become widely known to be unreliable, so something else can rise from it.

But if not, I'm sure some loud Youtuber could have a field day with your stories. That at least might push IMDB to let only confirmed production companies add credentials to movies, which would be my idea (which probably already happens anyway, just not exclusivly).

No, it's entirely a "fake credits" problem, what someone writes in his bio does not make it true, another fake page I was reporting was saying in his bio he's a "Multi-platinum Producer" who produced songs for top artists like Future, Drake, Young Thug, Lil Baby etc.. and of course none of it was true, just because he wrote that in his bio did not magically make that a reality. I even explained why he spammed exactly 50 fake credits.

@mbmb​ I mean, as I've said I'm no expert on the region so I'm not going to pretend I'm any authority in this. Merely suggesting that things like that should be viewed  case-to-case.
