Hi there - I have TWO pages on IMDB (not my intention). How do I merge them?

One here (with showreel etc) - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5121477/
One here (without.. but I want this credit!!) - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5400958/

Thoughts?

Go to the second page : Yannick Lawry (II) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5400958/

Click on the yellow Edit page button near the bottom of the page.

Select Add correction beside the Name Correction or Merge item (the very first option)
Click Continue (at the bottom of the page)

Enter the exact name from the other page in Lastname, GivenName format i.e. Lawry, Yannick (I)
Since the base names are identical, uncheck the box beside Preserve previous name on existing credits. i.e. '(as Yannick Lawry)'
Enter the explanation : that you are Yannick Lawry and that both names refer to you so you are merging them.
Click Check these updates

You will now see a message indicating that you are trying to merge the two names. This is what you want to do, so check the box beside Warning understood, go ahead anyway.
Click Re-check these updates

You should now be able to Submit these updates
