source code files: developer name uniformity

[mamelicious]

Hi

I'm making a website which has MAME statistics about the number of source code files a developer worked on.

https://mamelicious.netlify.app/mamestatistics

Click "MAME 0.278 - Developers Hall Of Fame"

Now I have a little request for somebody who quickly wants to edit some source code files in order to make some names have the same writing style.
Below is a list of developer names that were written in 2 ways but it are the same people. Because of this, my statistics are not 100% correct.
Also this will make the full source code have the same writing style for developer names since my page loops through all source code files and extracts all developer names present in the files.

If somebody would like to edit the source code files so that the same writing style is used.
In case of "R. Belmont", the writing style "R.Belmont" should be changed: you can click a developer name and see exactly in which files it is used.
In this case:
\mame\tvgames\elan_eu3a05.cpp
\mame\tvgames\elan_eu3a14.cpp

Here is the list:

R. Belmont
R.Belmont

Olivier Galibert
O. Galibert

Philip Bennett
Phil Bennett

Roberto Fresca
Roberto Fresca.

Valley Bell

Couriersud

I would be very happy with this change!
Thanks in advance!

That wuld be useless churn. Build the equivalence table in your statistics code.
