IMDb is inconsistent when accepting the addition submissions of on-screen credited dancers

In auditing the on-screen credits of Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris (2022) and Don't Worry Darling (2022), I was pleased to find that dancers who are given on-sceren credits are correctly listed in the cast.  Over the years, I have also noticed (an even submitted) other on-screen credited dancers who have been accepted by IMDb for listing.  However, IMDb's policy is inconsistent, with the acceptance of on-screen credited dancers.  In not accepting them, you are throwing away factual information.

 Here're a couple of submissions that need reprocessing and acceptance:

221126-064411-926000
Track Contribution
2022-11-26 06:44:11 The Courier (2020)
Cast -  27 credits added
221117-115429-774000
Track Contribution
2022-11-17 11:54:29 Death on the Nile (2022)
Cast -  37 credits added, 11 credits corrected

It is such a disservice not to include these hard-working (and on-screen credited) actor/dancers.  Here's another example that needs to be accepted and reprocessed :

221027-192603-217000
Track Contribution
2022-10-27 19:26:03 In the Heights (2021)
Cast -  81 credits added, 2 credits corrected
221027-192147-090000
Track Contribution
2022-10-27 19:21:47 In the Heights (2021)
Cast -  89 credits added, 2 credits corrected
221027-191941-399000
Track Contribution
2022-10-27 19:19:41 In the Heights (2021)

Hi @bradley_kent -

All mentioned examples above were not accepted since there was no evidence attached.

Please resubmit with evidence so we can approve, remember in some cases we do need extra evidence.

Cheers!

I no longer have access to these videos and it would be an extra expense for me to do so.  IMDb could more easily access them than I can.  There is absolutely no reason why I would "make up" these verifiable on-screen credits.   Just the intricacy of their detail contains a multitude of specifics that is probably beyond the "out of the air" creation of someone.  Besides, I think my track record should count for something.  I have never submitted "created/false" information belying on-screen credits, nor will I ever do so.  As I have said many times, my goal is to help make IMDb more accurate than it already is.  If IMDb does not want correct information, then that is your choice.

I just feel sorry for the on-screen credited people who you are denying listing on IMDb.
