Wilhelm Scream: Who Keeps Track of This?
I'm working on a documentary about the famous "Wilhelm Scream" sound effect and I've noticed that the sound effect's usage is well-documented in IMDb trivia. Is there any particular person contributing or multiple? I've noticed the entries typically start with "WILHELM SCREAM"

I'm not sure, but attaching the pertinent keyword to IMDb title pages helps with this effort.

Thanks! Yes, I've actually spoken with Sheb's daughter and biographer at length and I've spoken with lots of sound designers who've used the sound and know the full history. I'm actually now looking to speak with present-day lovers of the sound-- non-sound designers! I'm curious to talk to whoever actually updates the IMDb listings and hear their perspective on loving (or hating) the sound effect and why they keep such close track of it...
