If possible, can the withoutabox version of the title page be deleted in favor of this one?

However, it is possible for crew to have more than one credit, so if you have entered different Occupations (or Attributes in some cases) it is possible that you will end up with 2 credits instead of 1, but in this case you just need to delete the duplicate.

But yes, it will correct for duplicate name and information, so there is no duplicates (unless they aren't really and say one credit goes to "John Smith (I)" and another to "John Smith (II)" - it is always worth checking just in case). Merges happen a lot on IMDB and the systems are now pretty robust so mistakes are very rare indeed.

Also, and this is the only other thing: I've been trying to change my name on imdb from "Bobby Yahnke" to "Robert Yahnke" as it's the name I'm most often credited as and most recently as well, but have been unable to change it. I get a rejection every time I try to change it. Any advice on this?

It is a very bad message (and my explanation wasn't that much better).

Thank you. I'm just concerned that the submission that I put through today via imdb goes through as it is the most accurate and has every credit listed, unlike the wab title page which is already on imdb. I'm hoping they don't head the submission I put in today off at the pass, so to speak. Sounds like I'll just be able to merge both pages into one and correct anything that is needed. Are you able to see to it that the one I submitted earlier (ref. #131023-192946-071000) is not headed off?
Ah right. I can't do anything as I'm just an ordinary user like you, just one with a fancy badge.
However, as you've made it clear it should be fine (and as I say, I've yet to see them head it off at the pass), but it might get rejected because it shares a name with an existing title. If so you'll need to work with the current one and improve it.

What is the rejection you get?

Any word if that is ever successful?
As I say, I'm not a member of staff, so I can't check such things.

I've also requested they delete the trivia and things like that from my page as some one put it there years ago without my consent.People do not need your consent to submit public data about you, nor does IMDb need it to add it to your name page.
Actually, you should not consider this as your name page as it really isn't; it is IMDb's page about you. Keeping this in mind may make things a bit less frustrating,
IMDb really does not like to remove valid data, and they will almost never do it because the person named in the page does not like it. To get IMDb to remove those trivia items you probably need to show that they are not correct.

'tt3278946' is invalid
What does this mean? I have noticed that as they day has gone on, more info is gradually added to the title page. Is it because info is still being added, that I am receiving this page? Or is it something else altogether?

All relevant pages need to be rebuilt, but this happens at different times, leading to this error. It only seems to have appeared fairly recently, so it might be staff will fix it eventually. Until now the fix is waiting a few days.
