Countries an attribute for a release date?

On this title: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5125616/releaseinfo I saw there is a release date for the country Germany with the attribute Germany. Via the edit page I find the attribute Germany is currently attached to 20 release dates. Can a staffer please look into this and fix this (and perhaps block Germany as an attribute)?

I (rather randomly) checked some other countries and France (attached to 106 release dates), Portugal (7), Poland (15), Nairobi (6), Netherlands (3), Sweden (24), United Kingdom (17), United States (78), United states (1), Belgium (22) and Spain (75) are also currently attributes for release dates. Can these be checked and corrected as well please?

Or am I missing something here and is there or can there be a good reason to have a country as an attribute for release dates?

A country name usually means a wide, general release in that country, as opposed to premiers at film festivals.

While David is absolutely right, how is this matter answered and how is his reaction the "official solution"? Was it a staffer who labeled this post answered?

The problem still exists and I can't fix it. I think a staffer needs to do this because I don't know how to find the specific titles to which these attributes are attached.

Good point Tasmania. I'll probably start a new thread about this issue in a few days if staff haven't responded by then.
