Height correction

Hello, I have been trying to change the height on actor Lloyd Owen's IMDb page, but the staff keeps declining my edits, despite the fact I provided a credible reference for them.

So I submitted Owen's height being at 6'0 on September 12. Here is my contribution number: #220912-200009-097000. I haven't provided any source for that information, it was a generic Google result and it was accepted by the editors.

But soon after I found out that information was wrong, because I've found a link to an actor's CV. There his height is listed at 6'1: https://web.archive.org/web/20071005101747/http://www.hamiltonhodell.co.uk/page.asp?partid=51 

Since then I've been trying to correct it to 6'1, my latest contribution number is #220916-132434-022000 on September 16. Today it got declined again and the reason for it was that they are "Unable to verify", asking me to provide an explanation, which is exactly what I do every time. Other numbers are: #220914-103213-827000 and #220915-140954-915000. 

Today I also tried to submit tickets for deleting existing height and adding a new one, just to try if this would work, but I have a feeling they will be rejected too.

At the same time few days ago I went on and corrected another actor's height with no explanation and it got accepted without problems. So I do not understand why the staff accepts unverified data and declines sourced data of the same kind.

Please, this needs to be resolved. Thanks.
