Welcome to Mooseport/"self" credit keeps getting rejected for fictional movie
For Welcome to Mooseport (tt0361925), a fictional movie, Chi Chi Rodriguez is listed as "self", although this is an acting role.
Several times, I have attempted to change his character name from "self" to his name. But it keeps getting rejected.
I've sent in hundreds of similar corrections that have been accepted. Played self in fictional movie, this is to move into acting credits. Per https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/filmography-credits/cast-acting-credits-guidelines/GH3JZC74FVYKKFMD#self - "Where someone is billed in the credits as themselves in a fictional piece and are playing a scripted, fictional version of themselves, we use the performer's name as the character name to avoid moving the credit to the 'Self' category."
