Language warnings - Ref: #230415-231826-877504

I submitted a suggested edit - #230415-231826-877504 - which moderators were apparently unable to verify. Since it contained the same information that had already been posted, just without judgmental additions and a frequency count of profanities (which should not be included anyway, according to IMDb submission guidelines - “Do not add the specific amount of times a profanity is used, if something is used excessively please state this rather than the number of times”). I am struggling to see what verification you require. Please elaborate.

Hi @silvio_mitsubishi -

Thanks for reporting the error, the Parents Guide has now been updated as per our policy.

Cheers!

@Michelle​  Such a shame that every report has to be submitted twice, even when I have made clear which submission guidelines are being breached.

Hi @silvio_mitsubishi​ -

If you are continually seeing a pattern of these declined updates for the Parents Guide, let us know and we can investigate and escalate the issue further.

Thanks again!

@Michelle​ I’m genuinely surprised my suggested edits don’t flag up a warning already. I seem to be more concerned about quality control in the parents’ guide and reviews than the majority of your moderators.

 I am baffled by the number of people who count and record “277 instances of the f-word”, since a) ‘the f-word’ is rarely used in film scripts. It’s usually the actual word rather than a euphemism; b) ‘the f-word’ is not profane anyway; and c) submission guidelines specifically say NOT to count instances: “Do not add the specific amount of times a profanity is used, if something is used excessively please state this rather than the number of times.”, but nobody has the time to go through editing every single occurrence.

Hi @silvio_mitsubishi​ -

Thanks for your feedback, I understand the frustration.  I can also assure you that we do care about quality control, unfortunately, your recent updates were incorrectly declined.  I have taken steps to help prevent your submissions from being discounted and I highlighted the issue to the applicable team.

@Michelle​  Another one. I have reported it again, asking for clarification of which part moderators were “unable to verify” and adding quotes from submission guidelines.

@silvio_mitsubishi​ Hi! Sorry for the late reply, we are working through a backlog of threads. I can see review was deleted already.

Cheers!
