Recent downgrade of Soundtrack Submission checking
In the past, submitting a Soundtrack item like this used to be okay:
"Wanted Dead or Alive"
Words and Music by Jon Bon Jovi
Now it throws a warning, but there's nothing wrong, and there should be no warning.
...
If you want the name to be linked into the database, try using the link notation:
"Wanted Dead or Alive"
Words and Music by [link=nm0000954]
Now it's flatly rejected, and cannot be submitted. This is a somewhat recent change that needs to be rolled back.

The above is a subset from a larger (rejected) submission from on screen credits seen here:

I am trying to add the following soundtrack credits to Foreign Letters (2012). I looked over the soundtrack guide and not seeing what is wrong. These are verbatim from the credits apart from adding quotation marks in keeping with formatting policy (order number is indicated first).
#9
"Jour de Fete"
by Pascal Bonifay & Fabrice Smadja
AOC Productions
#11
"Modern Jazz Samba"
by Kevin MacLeod
incompetech.com
#12
"Comparsa"
by Kevin MacLeod
incompetech.com
#13
"Peppy Pepe"
by Kevin MacLeod
incompetech.com
The last three are clustered together on the credits, but I separated them out because I thought that they would be more likely to be accepted that way. Of the thirteen soundtrack items I attempted to submit for this film, only these four were outright rejected, although others had warnings.

@ron3 Sorry about that; this is part of a new set of checks in the submissions interface which are (accidentally) over-sensitive in this case. We have opened a ticket with the appropriate team (ticket reference #P92871038).

Based on the guide ( https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/soundtracks/GKD97LHE9TQ49CZ7?ref_=helpart_nav_45# ) it probably should be:
"Wanted Dead or Alive"
Written by Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora
Performed by Bon Jovi
( It’s written by both Bon Jovi and Sambora, btw. You can check the composer credits from e.g. Discogs:
https://www.discogs.com/master/96091-Bon-Jovi-Wanted-Dead-Or-Alive )
