Now did you even take a look at the picture kindly provided by CubbyUps?
Or are you simply trying to deny the obvious?

Of course, and in fact that is the only source I'm using in this discussion.

Right above the credit for Mr. Berger you will find the name of his company listed as "SFX-Make-up by KNB EFX Group, Inc.". Otherwise the Divider that you wanted to enter wouldn't make sense at all.

Where on that screenshot does it make an association between Mr. Berger and KNB EFX Group, Inc.?  Nowhere.

As for a group divider, I surely wouldn't enter one based on the credits shown in the first post.

---------------

We don't know what follows after the Berger credit. It could be a list of mold-makers, latex crew, prosthetic design or any number of different jobs in the SFX Make-up business.

I guess it will be up to the people who own it and care.

OK, since you are trying to deny the obvious:

KNB is the acronym for Kurtzman, Nicotero and Berger the owners of the company.

And which part of that screenshot tells you this?

Quote:
BTW you still haven't answered my questions.

That's because I've just been discussing what's visible on that list of credits.

And since we are on SFX company credits - Tiny Juggernaut is a company and not a person.

I'm glad to hear that.  I don't see Tiny Juggernaut in the screenshot from the OP, but I do see "FLAT EARTH", which I suppose is also an effects company.

(Screenshot from "Wanted")

A question to those that want to enter Howard Berger as SFX-Supervisor:

So just to get this straight:
According to your logic Dan Chuba and Rebecca Marie would get entered as "Executive Producers" here?

And if not. In how far is this different from the example in the OP?

One difference is that the formatting is completely different, in that "VISUAL EFFECTS BY HAMMERHEAD PRODUCTIONS, INC." isn't divided into two distinct columns like the credits below it are.  In the screenshot in the OP this distinction doesn't exist.

According to your former post this would be irrelevant

I don't think the online database wants to know what everyone's job was, it just wants to know how everyone is credited

The credit clearly says "Executive Producer". Please note the distinct difference to the Visual Effects Producer right above them.

There is no compulsion to include every person in the credits.  When one is not certain that they belong in the online database one may omit them.

Fully agree.

But would it be allowed to enter these two as "Executive Producers" if I wanted to do so?
And if not, should I go on a quest to find an example with an identical layout? (May take some time, but I'm sure I will find them)

Yes, it's allowed.  I think you would get a lot of "No" votes if you included the screenshot in your contribution notes.  The screeners would go with the flow.

The rules do not care where in the credits Cast and Crew appear...

Correct,
nevertheless we should.

And what's the problem with putting the raw-data (credit) into its context?
- We (at least roughly) know what the data-field was intended for
- We have "The Rules" to give us guidance
- We have a credit that fits only 50%

If those missing 50% were coming from "The Rules" (Not in the list) the answer would be easy.
But just because its "only" contradicting the original intent of the data-field there's suddenly a big discussion whether this should be allowed.

I'm not even sure anymore how absurd the example would have to be. Should I go out and check for a "Director" credited somewhere deep in the bowels of some obscure VFX-company?

For DVD-Profiler we are data-typists, but we have brains and we shouldn't be afraid to use them.
