Pierce Brosnan: This is the actor

The tracks are on the soundtrack to Evelyn, a movie in which he appeared. I suppose it’s possible a different musician with the same name was on the soundtrack, but it seems unlikely.

Hemanta Kumar Mukhopadhyay: Merge to the other topic please

This is the playback singing name that Hemanta Kumar Mukhopadhyay used, according to the wiki page.

Michael Mann: Merge to this one please

2008-06-25T20:41:40.0012Z

David Winters: Film data should be moved to other David Winters

2008-05-15T18:10:50.0005Z

There are two other David Winters, one a film director, another a film producer. Those two should be merged and the film data attached to this topic should be moved to that topic.

Trey Parker: Use of the alias field

This shouldn’t happen again. Thanks for noticing it.

When MusicBrainz tells that X is also known as Y, we don’t necessarily know that Y is a fictional character played by X, as opposed to just a stage name.

It’s definitely a bug that the bot is re-adding aliases previously deleted, though. Sorry about that, and thanks for bringing it to our attention.

It looks like your MusicBrainz bot is still adding improper aliases. Will this be fixed?

Trey Parker: Use of the alias field

You are correct - names of the characters that an actor portrays should not be aliases of that person. This is an artifact of some psuedonym refactoring that was done on musical tracks. In general, if you see another topic like this, feel free to delete the pseudonyms.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Should aliases really be used to include roles played by an actor? It seems very inappropriate to me.

Alan Jay Lerner: Still marked for deletion?

2008-03-24T16:44:41.0005Z

I don't think this topic should be deleted, unless someone can post a valid reason for it.

Alan Jay Lerner: Delete this topic?

2008-03-19T20:56:04.0005Z

Merge, don't delete.

Stephen Colbert: Stephen Colbert for President

I agree. Sadly it appears that he's stuck in South Carolina.

I think it would be great if Stephen Colbert became a serious contender in the presidential race to shake things up a bit. The famous French comedian made a run for the French presidency in 1980 was at one point had 16% of votes in the polls.
