Yes, you are correct! slight_smile The man in this image

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/8X6DZna6wS9jx4Gext3QNtbtcPH.jpg

is not actor Samuel Johnson - it's book author Tim Butcher during an event called "BBC Four Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction awards" in 2008. So, this picture has to be removed from the page by a moderator. telephone

(not sure why anonymous chose that image)

I assume "Anonymous" was never a "real" user but some kind of bot or something like that, and I guess that's how this mistake happens. You'll find those duplicate pictures from time to time on other pages, too. It often happens with common names, but not only.

Thanx in advance (I hope this is the way to do this, 1st time).

Yes, that's the perfect way! thumbsup_tone3


Also, if you have time and you're up for it - there's at least 1 duplicate page for this actor Samuel Johnson here on TMDb:

https://www.themoviedb.org/person/1574362-samuel-johnson

All those credits belong to him - I checked with his IMDb page, the page of his charity, the page of the short movie "Auditioning Fanny", and the CV on the page of his agent/rep.

So, if you're up for it, could you move all the credits from the duplicate to the original? Here on TMDb, the page with the lower number is always the original, and moving credits is something that you can do to help the mods out here and there. And it's very easy:

  1. Go to the specific movie/episode of a show of every single credit.
  2. Click on "Edit Page" and look for the page of the cast/crew.
  3. Add the original person page.
  4. Remove the duplicate person page.
  5. Report the duplicate when it's completely empty.

Moving credits can be exhausting when you have many of them - but this one is easy. If you want, give it a try, and report back when you're done. sunglasses

EDIT:

Oops, I don't want to complicate this report, so I'm just adding that there's a second duplicate page for him here:

https://www.themoviedb.org/person/1529289-samuel-johnson

Again, all those credits belong to him, have to be moved, and the duplicate has to be deleted by a moderator! But the moving is more complicated because of the tv episodes ...

Hi Janar

Will get onto it tomorrow (just got back from holidays) - and thanx again!!

No problem, take your time! I'm also back from holidays and can't really move anymore ... cake chocolate_bar pancakes

All finished and have reported the duplicate.

Thanx for the help Janar - the details did help, and I can see how painful larger entries would be

Great - I think it looks good! sunglasses

One tiny thing: Images of persons should be - preferably - head shots, similar to the new one that you uploaded a few days ago. That's quite good, actually. thumbsup_tone2

Because of that, the other one that you moved from the duplicate, here, this one:

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/vml91dmMX2gYKfSQTIwTbvrswWc.jpg

is not really great and unnecessary. It happens quite often that (some) moderators will remove such images because they're just not good enough.

No problem, you're welcome. I also cleaned up the second duplicate that I mentioned above and reported it.

So, now one of the mods has to delete the duplicate and all is fine! sun_with_face

I fixed everything myself! smiley_cat
