Release Dates - Premiere event bug

Hi @plur62​ -

I just checked the title page and it is now allowing votes.

@plur62​ Those changes have been made separately now, however, someone from the main Sprinklr team will need to investigate why they were not processed.   Do you have your submission numbers handy for them?  

@Col_Needham​ I have the submission numbers, but I don't think there's a need to put them here now that it's fixed.

Sometimes titles can't be rated before they go into theatrical release, regardless of whether they've been screened at multiple film festivals before, like "Killers of the Flower Moon", but I believe that's because those titles might be controversial or where there could be vote manipulation, so I don't report such titles here.

@plur62​ We still need the submission numbers so the team members who mistakenly rejected them can be re-trained to understand the policy. 

Your second point is correct and that actually now applies in the case of LLB but there's a separate mechanism for this, and whoever added three (premiere) attributes did the wrong thing (adding one is bad enough, and again, they should not have been accepted on our side, so more training is required). LLB can still be rated but the average rating will not be eligible for display until after general release.

Thank you @plur62,

We have tagged those submission references for review and shared with the relevant team for further training.

Cheers!

Hi @plur62,

Thank you for reporting this. Your latest correction attempt was approved.

I hope this helps!

This title, for example, had its world premiere back in March at the SXSW Film Festival, but voting is still disabled due to its "premiere" release type.

This is correct and is by design. Is your issue here that you submitted the removal of the attribute and it was rejected? If so, please can we have the submission reference numbers.

@Col_Needham​ yes, it was rejected, reference number is 241002-121013-331000

At the top of the page you wrote:

"The (premiere) attribute should generally not be used in connection with a festival screening. 

(Los Angeles, California) (premiere) == okay 

(Sundance Film Festival) (premiere) == not okay 

"

@Col_Needham​ 

The submission guide still says

Example festival attributes are:

(Toronto International Film Festival) (premiere)

(Cannes Film Festival)

@plur62​ As note above at https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/release-dates-premiere-event-bug/652f25fedcce2440562fc87d?commentId=652f962cdcce2440562fd617 this is not a bug and the attribute is working as designed in this context.  

We will follow-up with the relevant team on why the guides were not updated.  

If you see the attribute being incorrectly used as in your examples, feel free to submit corrections. 

@Col_Needham​ you wrote this on that thread:

"The (premiere) attribute should generally not be used in connection with a festival screening. 

So to summarise:

(Los Angeles, California) (premiere) == okay 

(Sundance Film Festival) (premiere) == not okay"

So, this is not okay, but when I try to correct it, I get "Does not meet contribution guidelines" message every time. Confusing.
