Thanks for your report!
Moderators can lock data fields so that they can't be changed by "normal" users. Those names are locked.
You are doing something wrong -> people names should be entered in English only, not in Russian! You can read more about this here:

You can put the Russian (Cyrillic) name as an alternative name instead!

The same goes for character names in movies and tv shows -> please stop renaming them from English to Russian like you did here: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/1622-supernatural/changes

Also, there's a difference between season regulars and guest stars in television shows -> you can read more about it here:

Please don't add people as season regulars when they were already added for each specific episode!

Because we don't support translations of character names, yet. It's not implemented, technically. When you change the name to Russian, everyone sees the Russian character name -> which is wrong. Especially for English language movies and tv shows.
