Weird glitch? Cast members not showing in the correct order

@mbmb​ Interesting - I've seen other titles with an "insignificant percentage" of ordered credits before, but they've always seemed to take those order numbers into account; I think this is the first time I've seen a title where it hasn't done that.

For example:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2934476/fullcredits/

Only 1 out of 106 cast credits has an order number, but they are still "ordered" at the top.

@tom_wake​ I don't know if it's documented anywhere but it could be about all cast entries being "Self" in that title. I remember seeing such titles too now you said it, and all examples I remember had only Self credits in cast list. So if I had to guess, that may be the reason. Maybe staff can shed a light.

@mbmb​ Interesting theory, but these credits are all Self as well... hopefully a staff member will chime, but it seems unlikely whilst this thread has been incorrectly marked as "solved" 

@tom_wake​ 

Most, but not all the credits in the title you asked about are self credits.

The guideline quoted by mbmb does likely answer the question, even if the guideline doesn't cover all details or exceptions. Similar questions have been answered similarly before, see for instance Michelle's reply here.

If you want a post not to be mark Solved, it can usually be done by posting a new comment in the thread (not a reply to another reply).

@Fran​ Hi Fran,

As explained in my original post, these credits already have the correct order numbers attached, so there is nothing to correct; the issue is that they are not displaying in this order.

@Fran​ Could you please un-tag this thread as being "solved"? Many thanks

Hi @Michelle​ 

It's not that "100 Greatest Films" is an exception to the rule - almost every title I've seen in my 18 years of contributions has followed the same pattern (whether the credits are all "Self", acting, or a mixture of the two), with the episode in my original post being the only exception that I've ever seen.
