How to alert IMDb that someone is adding thousands of duplicate episodes
It seems impossible to raise, but a user has added and continues to add hundreds of duplicate episodes for a US soap opera which are only giving the year as a date and only three credited actors - now skewing the data of their appearances by sometimes 2000 episodes! How can you alert IMDb to stop accepting them ?

@Rain85 You can do this by posting here, thanks. What is the link to the show on IMDb?

Thank you for your response. It is https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0058796/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_4
the episodes are all being added only with the year of date and under different numbers ie. if 1.13456 exists as an episode already, there is now a version 53.6 (just an arbitrary example) and now the top four actors are being added in to hundreds and hundreds of additional episodes. Top actress episode count has recently gone up by almost 2000 so the data available is now really incorrect!
Thank you

Hi Rain85 -
Thanks for the additional details, I was able to identify these recently added episode titles and am working on removing them now. I will also reach out to the contributor to clarify our policy on listing episodes for a continuous series.
Thanks again for reporting!
