NO exceptions for any Alternate versions, Director's Cuts, etc.

I want to make my opinion public on this subject: There should be NO EXCEPTIONS whatsoever for ALTERNATE VERSIONS.

Suggest for more appropriate actor primary images

The portly Austrian born actor Walter Slezak (nm0805790) became best known to international audiences after moving to the U.S. in 1930.

Image tag correction issues

I just recently took a look at the new "Edit Tags" function for correcting the identities of people in photos, and this is a great idea.
