Hi GeorginaO- Thank you for posting the submission reference number! Further reviewing, the reason why this mini-bio has been rejected is because for mini-bios, we allow a few examples of the filmography of the person to be mentioned within it but further mentions of their credited work already has their own section which is in the respective Filmography of the person. Also, any mentions of Awards for example ("which won Best Short Film in X festival" or "was nominated for this and that") have to be removed as Awards already have their own section on IMDb and these should be submitted there. You are welcome to edit it and re-submit it for staff to review. For further detailed information, you can review our Mini-Bio Help Guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/biographical-data-guidelines/GMT9T242VQADZUQM#bio Cheers!
