I've found an error I don't know how to fix. Adam Linke http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1276412/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1 is listed to have appeared in an episode of As the World Turns in 2001. Naturally this is impossible since he died in 1945, 11 years before the show was even created so he must have gotten mixed up with another person with the same name. The problem is that he is not listed in a specific episode which means I cannot delete him from the show. And there is no other Adam Linke in the database and even if there were I don't know any way of just splitting one credit.

Hope someone can help me find an easy and simple solution to this.

It appears that the actor who portrayed Billy Ross in the period 2001-2002 is Hunter Garner (I).

I suggest that a correction be submitted. Clearly it was not Adam Linke.

Yes but how do I correct it? Since you nowadays have to change the cast in Tv-series from the specific episodes and not from the full cast and crew list. Adam Linke is not credited in a specific episode it just says unknown episodes.

The only way I can think of to change it is to add Adam Linke to a specific episode, wait for it to be accepted and then delete him from the episode. Then he should also disappear from the cast list alltogether. it sounds cumbersome yes, but does anyone know an easier way?
