I was wondering if there was any way to add information regarding voice actors I've recognized in certain productions but which are not listed on that actors page? I realize that this can't be done casually as different voices can sound alike to different people but there are cases in which I'm certain they are the same; would it be acceptable to add the information or have the change made if other people could confirm that their voices are the same? If so, what would be the best way to do this?

Upon reading this, this makes me wonder why they haven't merged the voice credits lists for Steven Blum and his aliases Daniel Andrews and David Lucas. You'd think more than enough people would have caught onto that (And I myself have seen a LOT of dubs over the years).

It has to do with the fact that, if memory serves, ANN has been contacted by Steven Blum requesting that he not be shown as one and the same as his suspected aliases as they are all different people. It is believed that this is due to Screen Actor's Guild union obligations. Your question is exactly why I recently made the suggestion that a sticky list be created for all such cases.
