I moved all credits to the correct profile and deleted 1305590. Please don't create a duplicate when you add this actor again. Since the name is added as an alternative name and there is a picture it should be easy to not add a dupe.
Also, make sure you read the old reply I wrote regarding this topic here.

I did read your reply now and the old one and I only think that it should be the way around, all sources I checked named Adolf Wohlbrück so I think the alternative name should be Anton Walbrook because he only used this name in exile and for only some movies, most of his acting was in Germany with the name Adolf Wohlbrück and so his well known in Germany http://www.exilarchiv.de/DE/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1259:wohlbrueck-adolf-wilhelm-anton&catid=24

All the German sites use Adolf Wohlbrück. All other sites all over the world use Anton Walbrook. Search results for Adolf Wohlbrück: 18600. Search results for Anton Walbrook: 146000.
Since he moved from Germany in 1936 there were almost as many movies made using his new name as with the old one over his full career. So after some consideration I'm staying with my old decision.
