Item: Julio Ramos
Language: en
Type of Problem: Incorrect_content
Extra Details: This report is for someone who has too much time on her or his hands - I can't solve this on my own and give up. Here's the problem:
At the moment, there are 2 different pages here on TMDb for 2 different men with the name "Julio Ramos", born on the island Puerto Rico:
I assume that most of the credits here on TMDb are correct, but I also assume that some of them are wrong. One simple example: They are both credited for Narcos PR, but I guess only 1 of them was in it. And here's my problem: I can't find full lists, and most of the info about them that I can find is in Spanish, a language I don't understand.
And if you think of IMDb - nope, they have it even worse: They have at least 3 different pages for those 2 men:
And I know for a fact that they are wrong about the credit for acting in the show StartUp -> that's definitely Julio Ramos Velez, not the other one. But for all the other credits: I can't say.
For more information on the actor, there's a long article in Spanish from the year 2012 here:
https://prpop.org/biografias/julio-ramos/
And his facebook profile has a lot of photos -> but everything is in Spanish, and I can't figure out half what's written there.
Good luck! :-)

Challenge accepted.
A few credits were easy to confirm: Broche de oro, Por feo, The Vessel, Luna Vieja, La espera desespera, El enviado
They mention a few credits: Cuentos de Abelardo, La guagua aérea, Que será, Revolución en el infierno, El clown, Contraseña
Surprisingly, I think it might be right? Julio Voltio's names is on the soundtrack + there are pictures of Julio Ramos on the set of Narco PR e.g. one, two and some posts refer to his character as "El teniente".
I'll add to this post as I work my way though the credits :

Haha, I should've known that's something you're going to "enjoy"!
What a coincidence - I think you're right!
And did you see, on the left: Carlos Miranda! I had to laugh so hard just right now ...
I think, so far, you're right on all accounts!

Banana, you're crazy! In a good way - wait, is that possible? Anyway, thanks for checking all those credits!
I agree with all the things you found - I think, in every case, that's him. I have 2 tiny thoughts to your unconfirmed list - they're not really that important:
Somehow, I miss Leyendas de Puerto Rico in your research? Did you check it or am I just blind?
About this one:
I remember, back in October, I started to research the credits and gave up because almost everything is in Spanish. One of the credits I started with was this one, and I had this idea that the title and members of the crew might have changed during production? There's a movie with the title "Vico C: La Vida del Filósofo" - the entry here on TMDb is this one:
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/407650-vico-c-la-vida-del-fil-sofo
The credits on the official facebook page are kind of similar (https://www.facebook.com/pg/VicoClavidadelfilosofo/about/?ref=page_internal) to the few TMDb credits of Marcelo (https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/407652-marcelo/cast), and on the website of the production company, there's no movie with the name "Marcelo" at all (https://www.pinolywoodstudio.com/). However, this film is about or inspired by a musician with the stage name "Vico C" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vico_C), and he did perform songs with the other Julio "Voltio" Ramos in the past. Also, they're both credited for the music documentary La clave, so, I assumed a possible connection. But that's where I stopped and was stuck - because I don't understand the Spanish articles and informations to confirm any connection or show that those movies might be the same. And at the end, it might be just a coincidence again ...

I skipped over that one! I added it to my list of unconfirmed movies!
You made me googled both movie titles and jackpot! I think I finally found a proper trail: according to google translate, it was supposed to started filming last march, but it was pushed back (at least) a few months:
I guess we'll know more as/if the movie production progresses.

Okay.
That's a very good find. Maybe, due to the hurricanes, they had to postpone the movie/production even more?
