Getting two listings merged

This is one example of two listings for the same title.

The better listing

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0178949/reference

(original title) Tout pour jouir
France (alternative title) Tout pour jouir
France (working title) La vitrine du plaisir
USA (alternative title) Hot Action
USA The Window of Pleasure
West Germany (alternative title) Hardcore
Hot Action

Listing missing some info. The Original title is most likely correct.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9326956/reference

(original title) La vitrine du plaisir
USA (alternative title) The Sex Window
(new title)

Tout pour le plaisir

In this case I do not see how this can be done. I have never figured out how to change the original title.

Well just figured out who made the second listing.

Please explain how to change the title that is listed as the original title. As far as I know there is no way to do it. So the method linked does not work.

I don't understand.

The subject of your post is "Getting two listings merged", and you asked

"How do you contact someone to merge the two listings."

I gave you a link to the article explaining how to merge 2 listings.

Are you just trying to change the title displayed on 2 different pages that do NOT need to be merged?

Look. You can not delete or change the listed Original title. If you can I have never been able to do it. 

If you can't change the original title then you cant merge them.

You can definitely merge the titles.

Which one should survive the merge?

The AKA's and Character name should be retained from https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0178949/reference

But https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9326956/reference should be the one that survives.

So the correct original title is La vitrine du plaisir (1978)?

If so then start at 

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0178949/reference

follow the directions on the page I gave you earlier

https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/how-can-i-merge-two-titles/GAL233TVTCPMLVDK?ref_=helpsrall#

and when filling in the new title, use

La vitrine du plaisir (1978)

Read through the warnings, and be sure to acknowledge you ARE trying to merge these 2 titles.

If the other has the correct original title, then start with

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9326956/reference

and use 

Tout pour jouir (1978)

as the destination.
