Missing random episodes of TV work
I'm missing four episodes from episodic series work, and I've submitted multiple update requests. How can I get these added? It helps for managing days/hours for future union qualifications.

Unfortunately, you can never rely on precedent to get credits in - there should have been proof requested for those and it might be getting the attention of staff could result in those disappearing...

Aside from the tone of the reply from someone who is apparently an IMDb data manager, it is a little troubling that he seems to be saying that he won't accept uncredited work at all. That's not the spirit of the published guidelines.There's still hope that staff will reply here.

Just a thought, but could the reply you said was from support be a message from the user Marhleet_DR, who also replied to that thread? It seems like his style.

Bingo.
The replies on the other thread were somewhat helpful, but the guidelines for proving "uncredited" work that I was linked to said it was for film, and seemed mostly for cast. Last time they did this I actually had a screen credit and provided a screenshot of the episode.
This time I'm not really sure what to provide, and anything I can think of is full of other people's information that I'm not exactly keen on sharing.
Thank you for the reply!

If there are privacy concerns you can use this link:
http://www.imdb.com/helpdesk/data_ver...
I'd also use something like Dropbox to host the scan images, as the file is essentially stored on your computer and then in the cloud - if you pick the setting that only people with the direct link can access it, then only you and the member of staff dealing with the submission will ever see it and deleting it will erase all online traces (so it is more secure than using email, for example).
