Solved

IMDb staff: please reverse this mass keyword edit (keywords "u.s.-history" & "american-history")

Can IMDb staff please reverse this previous mass merger and auto-conversion?  The new proposal is displayed below, with the arrows indicating the direction of the proposed new merger.

u.s.-history (700 titles)  -->  american-history [former keyword that is currently blocked]

Hopefully it is easy to make this change. The details are explained here

Thank you.

Hi keyword_expert -

The requested Keyword auto-conversion has now been approved, the changes should be live on the site shortly.

Cheers!

Only one U.S.A. 

after 1776 as you reported

"The United States of America"

@ACT_1​ You have provided yet another reason why this auto-conversion should be reversed by staff.

as a name for a new country
