Valid credits being constantly deleted

I have been updating the TV series Neighbours (1985) - tt0088580 - as new episodes go to air. 

In this series, the 18 or so regular cast members are listed on the end credits for every episode, not just those in which they appear. This then followed by recurring and guest artist credits. 

When updating the episodes, one of the things I do is mark any regular cast who did not appear with a “credit only” attribute, which is the correct course of action. 

A day or so later, another editor keeps  deleting these actors who did not appear, and has even gone back over weeks of episodes to do likewise.

Originally my request to re-add these missing credits was rejected due to “no evidence”, so I resubmitted them all with screenshots and an explanation, and they were approved. 

However, since then some of the same credits have been deleted again, along with those for newer episodes. I am having to submit requests on an almost daily basis to have credits re-added that should never have been deleted in the first place. 

It also seems that I have to provide evidence that specific actors were credited, but the other person or persons do not have to provide evidence that they were not credited!!

The list of episodes that have been affected is substantial, but currently the outstanding issues are with episodes 1.9188 1.9189 1.9190 and 1.9191.

The most recent correction requests I have submitted are:

250217-185431-404000

250217-185900-073000

250217-190338-909000

250217-190636-145000

Please can you assist with this?

As a side-note, as frustrating as this issue is, I can understand why some editors are reluctant to list “credit only” cast members, because these episodes are included in their total episode count and on numerous occasions i have read articles claiming an actor appeared in every episode of a series because that’s what the IMDb data implies. I would like to suggest that IMDb looks at a way of displaying an actor’s actual episode count that does not include “credit only” episodes. “Archive footage” entries are not included, so it shouldn’t be too hard to change an algorithm so that “credit only” entries are ignored too. 

Many thanks
