Can someone please fix the Van Helsing and Mina Murray character pages?

The IMDb character page for Van Helsing mixes up Abraham Van Helsing with Gabriel Van Helsing, J. Van Helsing, Lorrimer Van Helsing, Adam Van Helsing and a whole bunch of other Van Helsings. They have different first names, so they are clearly not the same character.

The Mina Murray page mixes up Mina Murray with Lucy Westenra, Mina Van Helsing and Mina Westenra.

I think I tried to fix this myself several years ago, but something went wrong and the changes didn't stick.

The thing with Mina and Lucy is sometimes their names are switched in adaptations, but it's still clear who from the book each is really based on. As for the Van Helsings, I'm not familiar with most of those but just because they have different first names doesn't mean they're not meant to be analogs to the original character as opposed to relatives or descendants.

Yeah I knew that one but I'm ignorant of the others.
