The first film which ever credited me on IMDB added me with my middle name which I never use (it was on the callsheet and never used in the end credits). So ever since then the other films I have worked on continue to add me as Drew Overly Diamond even though I am credited in their films as Drew Diamond.
I selected edit, wrote my preferred name and added a description for why I want it changed, and selected to NOT preserve any alias.
After that I select 'warning understood, go ahead anyway' and it just takes me back to the same page saying "Your updates aren't quite ready to submit to our data-editors. There are some things you need to verify below (look out for the updates that don't have a green background yet). Make the necessary corrections and click the 'Re-check these updates' button."
Below is the screen as I see it each time after I hit Re-check these updates, but I do not see what is needing to be corrected. I have tried clicking the one credit which is me (first one on the top) and it just takes me through the same process. I have done it not clicking that title and it does the same. What am I doing wrong?
Again, I don't need an alias or 'credited as', all of my credits have always been for the name as I am trying to correct.
Please advise.

Hey,
So I selected the "this is a different person" option and checked my IMDB page today to see how it looked. Now my imdb page is correctly under "Drew Diamond" (the correct name) but then all of credits are listed with parenthesis that say "...as Drew Overly Diamond" even though none of those films list my middle name in their credits. How can I get it to not add the parenthetical "as" to my credits?

Hey,
No, I never was credited with "Overly" as my middlename in any film. It was on the callsheet from the first film I ever was credited on IMDB for and mistakenly added. Then all the other productions linked me with the incorrect name as well.
When I go to the edit page I see the "as..." listed in the attributes. How do I delete this attribute?
