Please help with changing the year of TV mini series
The tv mini series The Odyssey was shot about 1996 year, and was released at 1997 year
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118414/
Someone made wrong realease date for 1st episode to the 1992 year, and year of whole title was wrongfully changed. I've made an contribution, that was accepted
https://contribute.imdb.com/updates/update?load=230514-063129-917000
And now there is no release date at 1992 year for 1st episode. How to correct the TV mini series year title?

Checking the Google cache of the page, I see you deleted a nonsense "(internet)" release date for 1992.
There are still two nonsense 1997 (internet) release dates added here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5623324/releaseinfo/
Brazil and France entries here should be deleted too (France was also added as a nonsense internet release but it seems someone removed internet attribute from it but nevertheless it's still a blind and unlikely copy of the USA date to another country and should be deleted instead of changing the attribute)
I see this "random blind copying of original date to another country" thing for especially Brazil a lot. I just deleted another similar random inaccurate blind copying of original USA date to Brazil item on another title two days ago.
I'm not submitting a deletion for these two items here to let the staff check for their users.
One time Michelle insisted here to not delete a similar blindly copied inaccurate nonsense release date item for Brazil for a movie by saying "she has reason to believe it's correct" when it was just a nonsense blindly copied inaccurate date copied from the earliest date found on the title page. After I proved it with lots of undeniable links to show that of course the movie was not released in Brazil on the same day of its initial country of origin premiere, it was deleted eventually. But she's insisting at first and saying "we have reason to -believe- it's correct" suggests me there is or are some prolific contributor(s) who are randomly submitting inaccurate dates by just copying earliest date found on the page to another country like Brazil. And because of their submission counts and probably them being a top contributor, staff tends to trust their random inaccurate submissions.
