Santino De La Tore is the writer and performer of track "Infierno" of the movie War of the Worlds. The track is listed in the soundtrack but his profile is not connected, so it doesn't appear in his credits. How can that be fixed?
Note: Santino made a recent correction in the name, "Torre" to " Tore"

Expanding on the previous response, if his name was listed in the credits as Santino De La Torre instead of his corrected name, the update would need to be submitted this way:

Infierno
Written by 'Santino De La Tore' (qv)  (as Santino De La Torre)
Performed by 'Santino De La Tore' (qv)  (as Santino De La Torre)

I hope this helps. Please write back if you have any more questions.

I tried the above-mentioned approach but now the title has two similar tracks listed but no credit linked to the artist. FYI, I made the correction to the previous track instead of creating a new one, don't know why we have two now. Please help.

Gaurav,

Without knowing which title page, it looks like the data should've been updated on the track already listed instead of adding duplicate data.

Since this was a recent addition, the duplicate appears on the Soundtracks page but not on the Update Information page and it may take a day or two to request a deletion.

For now, go back to the Soundtracks page.

On the first "Infierno", revise the data this way:

Infierno
Written & Performed by 'Santino De La Tore' (qv) (as Santino)
Courtesy of Luke Eddins at Luke Hits and Anouk Zisa-Bongiovi

The (qv) links the soundtrack title to the name page.

As mentioned earlier, delete the second "Infierno." This is a duplicate entry and is not needed.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for your help. I have applied to delete the duplicate entry and now credit is linked to the artist profile.

Other question: Will this credit appear on name page of the artist, like he wrote and performed this song?

As long as you added the (qv) link to the right of the name as displayed, it should.
