MERGE: Tam Tin-Bo and Tim Po, + BUST FAMILY Updates

Postby Brian Thibodeau » Fri Jan 29, 2010 6:30 am

Definite merge required here. She's in the credits of BUST FAMILY as Tim Po (her "only" film credit, according to the DB), but someone's already correctly ID'd her in the gallery for that film as Tam Tin-Bo.

Additionally, I watched this movie tonight and provided character names for most of the cast. ;)

Also in the DB credits for BUST FAMILY is one Tam Hon-Chung (he's billed this way on screen as well).

In this still from the film you can see Tam Kon-Chung in the middle.

If no one objects in 15 hours and 46 minutes, I'll add Tam Kon-chung to the cast of BUST FAMILY and make Tam Hon-chung one of his aliases. Or do we need to merge both entries because of the different Chinese spellings?

A merge is a merge. Remember that you must add also the Chinese alias of that name in the Chinese display.
Next time give more days before the merge, not only 15 hours. Some editors do not work on weekends.

I was half-kidding. I say "half" because I wouldn't have done it in 15 hours, but would not have waited the full 15 days either. I think that's too long considering how few editors we actually have. ;) Somewhere in middle would be ideal (ten days?), although this doesn't rule out the possibility that it will take more than 15 days for me to get to it. :) I will move the Chinese characters as well.

Added Tam Kon-chung to BUST FAMILY cast list. Deleted Tam HON-Chung from the database entirely, but made "his" English and Chinese names into aliases for Tam Kon-Chung.

Merged Tam Tin-bo and Tim Po. Updated English and Chinese aliases accordingly.
