I can't remove a credit and it's showing as my main credit over a 30 year history. I didn't work on that show.

Help with a name merge
Fran. Tried to merge my wife’s maiden name that was credited on those films as Lisa Gubkin but on new project as producer. It’s now Lisa Liebman II It was merged before but when I wanted to add her credits were under Gubkin except for the new film. It made her a new page again with the old credits.
