Turning Self to Actor

If a title is a documentary or reality TV or whatever I understand that the cast shows up as Self. But if it's a Action/Comedy/Horror and the cast does not mention Self anywhere why would they show up listed as Self on their own pages? I know the keyword reenactment can fix the problem but if it's not called for in the keywords how do you fix the problem?

Ben: Actually, for this title, "Z.E.R.O." (2012), the problem is in the Keywords section.

Some ... I'll be polite and say some "misguided individual" attached the keyword non-fiction to this television series about zombies. The "non-fiction" keyword acts like the Documentary genre in terms of assigning the cast members to the Self section.

I'm just going to go ahead and submit a Delete for that incorrect keyword myself. Hopefully, within a few days, the cast members will be moved to the Actor/Actress sections of their pages rather than the Self sections.
