change category

Hello, my name is Philipp Sebastian and I appear as actor on IMDb. I'd like to know, if it's possible to change the categories of two movies I'm in. "Versteckte Kamera" and "Het stof dat zwerft" are both movies, in which I don't appear as Myself, but in fictional roles. The names of the roles are even appearing. So I ask you to change these two movies from the category "self" into "Besetzung". That would be nice! Thank you very much!! Kind regards Philipp Sebastian

Philipp: The situation here is that "Het Stof dat Zwerft" is labeled with the Documentary genre, and "Versteckte Kamera" is labeled with the keyword Non-Fiction. Both of these labels mean that the cast members will be identified as appearing in Self roles rather than Actor or Actress. It is possible to add the keyword "reenactment" to a Documentary or Non-Fiction title, and if that is done, the cast members who have character roles listed will then have their credits listed as Actor or Actress. But if the title is not really a Documentary or a Non-Fiction title in the first place, then that genre or keyword should be deleted instead of adding the keyword "reenactment". So my questions are: 1. Is "Het Stof dat Zwerft" mostly a Documentary which included some dramatized scenes where you were acting? Or is it a completely dramatized film with everybody in it acting? There is no plot description nor any reviews listed on IMDb, so I don't know what kind of movie this is. 2. "Versteckte Kamera" appears to be a TV series which includes both nonfiction scenes with the hosts and scenes where people (such as you) were acting and playing characters. Is that correct? Once you provide this information, someone should be able to advise you about how to fix the situation so your roles will be listed as "Actor" instead of "Self".
