Release year failing to automatically update
For the movie Splash, the title's main release year is currently displayed as 1984. However, the earliest release date given in the Release Dates section is 18 November 1983. The release year has evidently failed to automatically update, and is still displaying "Splash (1984)" when it should be "Splash (1983)".
I have kept an eye on this for the past month, since I noticed it, and it has stayed this way for that whole time; so this is not just a case of a recent change taking the normal short while to update!
Edit: Link to the title below

That date should be deleted as it doesn't look like an eligible public valid date in the first place. I doubt any evidence was even provided while adding it (which seems a recent addition)
I could only find a mention from Nov 1983 on an article from LA Times and it clearly talks about a "private event" only for "theatre owners"

Hi robert_selth & mbmb -
I can see that the November 18, 1993 Sneak preview screening was approved based on this article evidence from The Chicago Tribune:
As this appears to be a public sneak preview event, we will need to retain the release date.
Cheers!
