    In ``Restricted orbit equivalence for actions of discrete amenable groups'' [Cambridge University Press (2002; Zbl 0992.43001)], \textit{J. W. Kammeyer} and \textit{D. J. Rudolph} built a theory of restricted orbit equivalence which culminated in proving that for a size \(m\), any two \(m\)-finitely-determined actions of the same \(m\)-entropy are \(m\)-equivalent. In this paper, the author considers the size \(m^e\) given by entropy and shows that for this context, two actions are \(m^e\)-equivalent iff they have the same entropy. An important tool used here is the notion of reverse-weakly \(m\)-finitely determined action and it is shown that as long as there exists an \(m\)-finitely determined action, any reverse-weakly \(m\)-finitely determined action is \(m\)-finitely determined. Hence, this takes place the notion ``weakly \(m\)-finitely determined'' in the book referrenced above. The main result of the paper is then given by showing that all actions are reverse-weakly \(m\)-finitely determined. Although all definitions are given and short descriptions provided, the exposition does assume familiarity with the notions developed in the above-mentioned book. The paper also provides a discussion of the infinite entropy case, which it points out is missing from the above-mentioned book.
