Somebody who's opinion I couldn't think less of is NOT going to talk to me. Whoopee. Now, if you would only extend that courtesy to everyone else, the forum would be much better off.

I will take this opportunity tho make note that there are several users here who simply refuse to mind their own business. In some cases, I have no comment to make to them for days, then maybe they will make a comment that I will provide some sort of positive answer to. but they choose on the other to follow me around from from thread to thread making insulting and attacking comments which ALWAYS results in a thread spinning into the abyss. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, people and move along, there is NOTHING for john d, tlevel, lopek and a few others to comment on. As i said tlevel, you have proven yourself an idiot for over a year now, i only hoppe that you are not representative of those other people in Canada, in fact i know you are the exception and not the rule in Canada...thank god.

OK, my first comment in this thread... since you have dragged me into it demanding that I should mind my own business when I have being doing just that.

One only has to look at post counts, and see who posts in 99% of threads whether they have anything to say or not, to see who should "mind their own business". Take your own advice you intolerable old skipocrite.



For the record...T!M, tlevel, johnd, Gunnar,... I completely agree with you all.

Please Stop.

Either keep on topic or don't post.

I'm fed up of seeing these threads turn into a flame war.

Ok, trying to calm down and get back on track...

Skip, the question was about common names. Since prefixes can vary between different credits for the same person, it's obvious (to me, anyway) that "as credited" doesn't cut it for common names.

I think it's best to keep prefixes out of the common name as a general rule. However, this may not be a good idea in the case where someone is always credited with that prefix.

I think relative to common Name, gunnar, I am not willing to lay down a blanket. Each name must be judged on a case by case basis. I am not certain, but I believe Dame Judith Anderson is far better known by her formal title than by Judith Anderson, Sir Lawrence Olivier could go either way and at this point in time Dame Judi Dench, would more likely than not be Judi Dench. but it can vary and that must be accounted for. As always the answer lies in the research and the documentation, and if you are not willing to do the work and include the results in your notes then don't do it at all.

I have to ask a question here, because it seems that everybody is stepping right over the obvious.

If 'common name' is based on 'credited as', and if we don't use appelations (that means things like Mr., Mrs., etc. for those in Rio Linda), then what possible reason would we use them in 'common names' for?

[And please don't bring up obvious exceptions like 'Mr. T']

Oh, Skip, please ignore also me, since I'm tired to have always the same answer from you about one line database and local database that you wrote at least one hundred times.

Surfeur. Glad to hear it, i am equally tired of your droning on and on about your PREFERENCE which you should be implementing Locally instead of attempting to impose it on the Online. It is s simple answer but you keep bringing it up again and again at least a hundred times. So as yoiu long as you keep droning, I will keep providing the same answer.

You should study, Walt, surfeur, he wasn't senile any more than I am, just had to slip in a personal attack didn't you. BUT walt could be very ornery, stubborn and cantakerous as all get outs. I could tell you some stories about him. But he was also a genius.

Rifter, we're not discussing appellations, we're discussing prefixes in general, such as Sir, Dame, Reverend etc. Obviously we wouldn't use prefixes that are never used in any credits.

You are truly one very insulting person and your posts are totally unnecessary in this regard. I will not personally attack you your repetitive attempts to manipulate the Online database to your WAY, instead of profiler's way. I don't need to, you have discredited your own position with your attacks.
