| | Posted: | | | | I want to distinguish between these two: Bob Marley (1945) - Jamaican Musician http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002490/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Marley http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:0ifpxqq5ldte Bob Marley (1966/67) - US Comedian & Actor (The Boondock Saints, The Boondock Saints II)http://www.columbusalive.com/live/content/features/stories/2009/01/15/ca_ar_laugh.html http://www.bmarley.com/ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0549125/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Marley_(comedian) http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:gxftxzq5ld6e The comedian's full name is Robert Cochrane Marley, Jr. What's the best way to separate these two credits? Submit a BY for the musician or just use the comedian's "real" name (that's not his common name) ? Unfortunately, I can't find his birth date, only an interview (first link) with his age. Haven't had much to do with birth years and cast/crew data so far, so heeelp pleeez?!  | | |

| | Posted: | | | | According to the Rules the BY is way to go. Well, not sure the BY has made it to the Rules yet come to think of it, but that is it's function. The CLT is about the Most Commonly Credited Name, not necessarily a given or correct name. ken has said this numerous times.

| | Posted: | | | | I see I am late for dinner, but just for the record I agree with Skip and Addicted as well. And if this name is not already in the "Accepted Birth Years" thread, I hope you take your sources there, so that it can be added for our future benefit!  | | | Berak

My BY contribution for Bob Marley (1945) was declined. What do I have to do to get a BY accepted? Because it's a new birth year that wasn't previously accepted, it does indeed need documenting - not just sources confirming the 1945 birth year, but you especially need to show that he actually needs a birth year by documenting that there's a second Bob Marley in the database. However, looking at your original post here, I'd say you've provided more than enough. If you paste exactly that in your notes (again, include both Bob Marley's), then I really don't see a problem. |

Hmm, I see. I actually did include all the info in my OP, but w/o the movie titles for the comedian. I'm going to try a second time. And if it's declined again, I'll just lock my profiles. Thanks for your post, T!M. | | |
