The most convenient method for submitting them is via the movie mail-server's central collection service. For a comprehensive guide send an e-mail message with the subject: HELP ADD FULL to The instructions specific to the actresses list are given below. EASY TEMPLATE BASED INTERFACE ============================= This is the most straightforward way to update the database and is recommended for users not familiar with the keyword based interface. You simply request a template containing the the current details of the actress you wish to submit updates for from the mail-server. The template contains full instructions on how to update the information, but basically all you do is edit the file, fill in the missing details and send it back for processing. You can request a template by sending e-mail with the subject or body containing lines of the form: TEMPL NAME , to . For example, TEMPL NAME Hepburn, Katharine KEYWORD INTERFACE ================= This is the most flexible interface but can appear quite complex if you aren't familiar with the organization of the database. Additions --------- (1) mark the start of the data with the word: ACTRESS (2) for each addition, include on a separate line an entry of the form: ||<attributes>|<character name>|<order> where: <name> is the actresses name in <surname>, <firstname> order. Please note the space after the comma as in: "Hepburn, Katharine". <title> is the title of the movie or TV-series in which the actress appeared, please include the year of release as part of the title (see examples below). <attributes> records any award nominations or wins and in most cases will be empty. Example attributes include: (AA) = academy award winner (best actress) (AAN) = academy award nominee (best actress) (S:AA) = academy award winner (best supporting actress) (S:AAN) = academy award nominee (best supporting actress) (GG) = golden globe winner (best drama actress) (GGN) = golden globe nominee (best drama actress) <character name> is the character name of the actress. <order> is a number to record the position in which the actress appears in the credits (1=star billing) The full additions guide contains more information on the formats. Notes: - Apart from the <name> and <title> all these fields are optional, but please leave the "|" separator for any blank fields, otherwise the some of the data may be lost. - Guest appearances in TV-series are NOT eligible for the main actors and actresses list. The person must have played a recurring role across a number of episodes in order to be included. See the section describing the biography database for an alternative method of adding this type of information. - Please only credit individual names. For example, if all the members of a particular rock group appeared in a movie then include them under their individual names and not the name of the whole group. - The actors and actresses sections are for people only. No animals. Examples: ACTRESS Hepburn, Katharine|Bringing Up Baby (1938)||Susan Vance|2 Hepburn, Katharine|Philadelphia Story, The (1940)||| Hepburn, Katharine|African Queen, The (1952)|(AAN)||2 Foster, Jodie|Silence of the Lambs, The (1990)|(AA)|| (3) If the additions include a title that is new to the database and you know the year of release, please also include a section of the form: TITLE <title>|<year>| Example: TITLE Bringing Up Baby (1938)|1938| Silence of the Lambs, The (1990)|1990| (4) Mark the end of your data with the word END on a separate line.

The format is: ACTRESS !<name>|<title>| For example: ACTRESS !Bergman, Ingrid|Notorious (1992) (TV)| Corrections ----------- (1) Correcting a name across the whole database If you spot a spelling error in a name in the database, use the keyword NAMECORRECT and the format: <current name>|<correct name> For example: NAMECORRECT Hepbern, Katharine|Hepburn, Katharine (2) Replacing an individual entry Replacements can be made by deleting the incorrect entry and adding the correct version.
