This is (also) something that has been bugging me for a while. There is a prominent focus on a show's creator in the TV database but you will not find any clear definition of that role (aka wiki). What for me is even worse however is that it's not something that every show has or cares about.
Just going by Wikipedia you will already get multiple possible "creator" roles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_program_creators... In the DB I saw all kinds of usage of the field; be it the showrunner (which can change), the author of the first/couple episodes, the author of the source material or even the production company. What is it now and should the field really be this "exclusive" for TV?

Huh, and why would Aggretsuko be the exception? I did not see a "Created by" credit and if it actually had then I would be curious to see what the Japanese version would read .

I thought it said that on Netflix or an press release, but I could be wrong.. I'm not sure anymore :( but it doesn't mention it in the credits indeed (I just checked again. only written and direction)
Perhaps I mistaken a sentence like "written and directed by Japanese creator Rareko" or something.

What about if that credit appears on a film? Do I add it as a "Creator" credit on the Crew section? There is currently no "developer" credit available for movies. Or should the "story developer" credit be used? If that's the case could that alt. credit be added here (this is what I use to chechk for AKAs in credits)?

It's been four years and the field is still wrongly used around the site and the bible entry is indeed the limited role credit. Will the field every be merged into regular credits and shows instead spotlight other creatives involved in the.. creation?

Hey @sp1ti,
I've created a new ticket for this here. No guarantees about timing, it's been hard for me to find any time for feature work this year. Hopefully I'll get TMDB back into a more regular cadence in the coming months.
