Cannot remove false credits despite proving my deletion reasons

Just recently, I was trying to edit the credits for "VeggieTales: The Wonderful Wizard of Ha's" since there are some false credits but when I submitted the deletion requests, it keeps saying that they are unable to verify, despite me explaining the reasons why it has to be removed. I actually watched the credits of this episode and some of these people are outright never involved with the episode at all. The people I'm referring to are: Drew Graybeal, Jairo Lizarazu, Warren Marshall, Dean Thompson (all as layout artists), Robert Hughes, Marlene Robinson May, Marija Miletic Dail, Juli Murphy, Ron Myrick, Mike Stribling, Greg Tiernan, Tom Yasumi (all as sheet timers), Timothy J. Borquez and John Valentino (as part of the sound department). All of these people mentioned above? They are all based in L.A., this episode in particular was never done there, it was mainly done in Franklin, Tennessee (where Big Idea was located at the time), while the animation was outsourced to Canada. I have a link to the credits of this episode to show proof that none of these people mentioned above worked on this. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GcOR_H2tg4) I do have similar issue with "VeggieTales: The Little Drummer Boy" as well where a lot of the same false people here claimed to work on this one too, but they actually didn't. The people being Davis Doi, Drew Graybeal, Jairo Lizarazu, Warren Marshall, Dean Thompson and the same sheet timers as before. I also tried removing them, but it too also said it didn't verify either. I don't understand why it keeps saying that it wasn't verified despite proving my points. Somebody needs to fix this.

Here you'll go (250307-001524-583000). Currently, its pending but it's going to say unable to verify after that despite proving my points. Planning to do "Little Drummer Boy" next.

Hello SpaceShrimp - In this case, I have checked on the submission and the deletion request do not include evidence for us to confirm the credits are incorrect. You will have to re submit the deletions and add a screengrab from the onscreen end credits for us to verify for you. You can find help about adding evidence to your submission in our Help Articles: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/contribution-information/how-can-i-submit-additional-verification-for-a-credit-submission/GN93ME9NVXHVE36E?ref_=helpsrall#

You are welcome. I'm planning to do one for "VeggieTales: The Little Drummer Boy" next since I was also unable to delete the false credits of that one despite me proving it. Give me a minute.

I was able to remove the credits for "VeggieTales: Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Samson's Hairbrush". Now, the credits for "Little Drummer Boy" have to be re submitted with the onscreen evidence for us to check.

Yep, I did sent the evidence (there are layout artists credited, but there were never any sheet timers for that one, after all, its the same sheet timers that "worked" on Wizard of Ha's).

I also have one for "VeggieTales: The League of Incredible Vegetables" since they declined on removing Davis Doi as a layout artist despite not working on it (I even also included photographic evidence from the credits, but they declined it). 250308-220438-544000

For "VeggieTales: Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Noah's Umbrella", while its currently pending, they did reject to remove Gary McCraver and Juli Murphy as sheet timers despite never working on that, in fact, the only mistakes for that one is that all of the sheet timers that "worked" on that episode didn't actually work on it at all. Here is the code for that one. At least the layout artists are correct. 250309-000551-070000

I'm back once again, I have another issue, it's not even VeggieTales related. I was trying to remove a few crew members for the Cartoon Network show Time Squad, specifically John May, Fiona McLean, Donna Baptista, Paddy Gillen, Eliza Tamayo and Nahid Islam (since those crew members never actually worked on that show at all, these 6 crew members worked on Captain Flamingo, some vandalizer originally added a lot of false credits to this show before I successfully removed all of them, but those 6), but when I tried submitted my requests (even with photographic evidence from the credits), they declined it because they are unable to verify. Really?? Even when I include photographic evidence?? That doesn't make any sense! Here is one example of a failed request when I tried to removed them, specifically "Napoleon the Conquered/Confucius Says... Way Too Much" (250320-210249-115000), it's not just this episode I had in issue with, 22 of the show's 26 episode run (link to show here, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0291672/) has these false credits and all of them were declined due to not verified (for May and McLean, it's 23 and 20 respectively). Can you please help me remove these 6 people since I was able to correctly fix the rest of the credits of this show?

Thank you! Now remove all of the other episodes that May, McLean, Baptista, Tamayo, Islam and Gillen "worked" on since they never actually worked on that show at all (see the IMDb for the show for reference).

Alright, but if I try again for other episodes, they will decline it because of lack of verification, even if I added a photo.

Now have another problem, I was trying to remove false composing credits for the video game LittleBigPlanet (it claims that Graeme Cornies, James Chapple, Daniel Brian Kelly and Brian L. Pickett composed for the game, which in reality its false since this is an entirely UK-produced game, those four are based in Canada) but they decline due to not being verified, despite explaining my reasons. The only composers involved in this game anyways are Daniel Pemberton, Mat Clark and Kenneth C.M. Young. Here is the link to remove the false credits (250412-163816-578000).

I tried to delete Tony Rosato's credit for the Atomic Betty episode "Attack of the Evil Baby/Space Brains" since he never did voicework on that one (or the show in general, if you look in the show's IMDb page, it claimed that he and Rick Jones did voicework on the show, which in reality its false, not to mention, Jones is a Montreal-based actor while the show is recorded entirely in Toronto, so he was never involved to begin with), with photographic evidence, but for some reason, they declined it too despite proving my reasons. Here is the link (250414-001050-161000).
