I don't usually take too much heed to the BY of actors  .. unless I come up with a question that I wanted to ask here:

Is the discussion over at this site on the boards   The final -approved- accepted Birth years of an actor/actress ? 

and also how exactly can you search this 102 plus pages for a name you may be looking for ..??

Thankyou

I have found that when I just search the thread the name(s) I'm looking for may not be on the alphabetical list.

I've found the best way for me is to use Google: Accepted Birth Years with Documentation: Cast or Crew Name.

This not only show me the appropriate thread it also alerts me if the name is not on the Accepted BY list.

I use Google

Lets say I want to search for Brad Pitt on this site

I put "Brad Pitt" Invelos into the search field and hit enter. Almost always if there is a birth year for the searched person it'll show up in the results.

If not and I want to make sure I add Birth Year after Invelos as above.

If nothing shows up then I know that either it's not an accepted/approved birth year or no one has contributed it yet (in cases where I know a new birthyear is needed.

I tried this for a BY - it takes way too much time.

I was able to Google the data and contribute it while the search thread was still looking for the information.

I tried it for the same purpose and it worked OK. Name search took about 10 seconds, so I would say that it's usable. Google is still much faster though.
