Helluva Guides


TomSouthwell posted 2 months ago

Why have you changed character names from how they are credited, added Starring cast as guest stars and just generally messed up the Helluva Shorts guide. You were sent the animation policy link way back when you started editing, this applies to any animated show?

What do you mean I was only adding them as guest stars since most of the actors in helluva shorts besides Brendan Rodgers, Vivian Nixon and Richard Horvtiz were the only actors to appear in almost all the shorts as main cast the rest were guest stars.

And which character names were you referring to I was only looking at the on screen credits for the characters to go by how they were credited on the episode how they were named.

kolbdog323 posted 2 months ago

Oh sorry I didn't realize I accidentally added a actor who was a guest star to main cast as well for the episodes. My bad I should of double checked and requested to fix them. I thought I added them as guest stars not main cast member I should of requested it to be fixed. Sorry about that i should of double checked before I added the actors and characters.

Look at the credits for all the episodes youve worked on every credit except John Waters is Starring. It says it in black and white, we dont add main cast based on whether characters appear once or twice,  thats irrelevant and exactly what the policy says. 

The character names you changed were these

Im resetting your level and you'll have to go through verification again so I can check you are following policy

If you look on the on screen credits they are credited The Farner and the the Wife that's why I changed the names to the Farmer and the the Wife not their official name what called in show. That's why I changed the character names since going by on screen credits name.

I think I accidentally used IMDb for that episode using the characters name not on screen credits name by accident I thought I had the on screen credits name for that episode but I looked on edit log and saw you fixed that so correct name. Weird I thought I did it correctly the first.

What am I ignoring? 

You didn't add them as the farmer and the wife. You called them completely different names. 

How did you use IMDB by accident? 

kolbdog323 posted 2 months ago

I used IMDb for the cast for the episode by accident instead of the on screen credits. I posted on something on that by accident and it wouldn't let me delete the message. so why do you add all characters to main cast unless it says guest star in episode for animation. That's what I don't get. Since in fairly odd parents there is segment specific cast do all those go into main cast unless the credits specifically says it's a guest star? Sorry just used to following tmdb for the episodes I think that's why I keep having issues who is guest star and main cast.

There is no issues we have a policy and expect you to read and follow it. The credits for Helluva list nearly everyone as Starring, so thats what wed follow. You have been told not to use ImDb by multiple staff. If The Fairly Odd Parents doesnt have a press release available or the credits dont separate starring or guest stars either in the opening or closing titles then everyone gets added as a star yes - thats exactly what the policy says and what you should of been following in all the months since you started editing here.

I didn't know I have a learning disability it takes me while to understand how to do certain things unless someone explains something clearly like you just did just now about that. Even though I have been doing it for months. I read the policy but was hard to understand it a little.

kolbdog323 posted 2 months ago

I do have a question about additional voices do I add them as cast or guest star that part is confusing since additional voices comes after the cast list and they only have the actors name.


TomSouthwell posted 2 months ago

Its covered in the policy that unless listed as a star as sometimes happens they get listed as co stars when credited as the character Additional Voices.

kolbdog323 posted 2 months ago

Can you explain that better am not fully understanding that. 


TomSouthwell posted 2 months ago

If the credits have starring credits and it says

Starring 

Bob as Additional Voices

Thats the credit they'd receive 

If the credits list stars and then Additional Voices a separate distinction or under guest stars then the character is a costar instead.

Hi Kolb

Hope you are well. 

As per site policy please make sure you add guests as credited to episodes. Your guest cast additions for The Simpsons should of been Special Guest Stars. 

Thanks
