Removing Fake Series

I came across these entries yesterday:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12592598 - Fred and the Nature Gang Easter (1976)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11331992 - Hal's Lost Chew Toy (1978)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11297220 - Fred and the Nature Gang (TV Series 1979)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11343996 - Fred and the Nature Gang: Fred's Holly Jolly Christmas (1983)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11403760 - Fred and the Nature Gang: Return of the Gopher (1988)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11302256 - Fred and the Nature Gang: Nature Cat LIVE! (1994)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11302218 - Fred and the Nature Gang: Nature Cat's 15th Anniversary Special (1994)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10402992 - The New Adventures of Nature Cat (1996)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13226192 - Fred and Rover (TV Series 1998)

Um, none of these exist.  They are figments of the user's imagination that submitted them. Can someone go about removing them?  It's really making imdb look bad to be presenting what is essentially fanfiction as fact.

Now to be clear, Nature Cat: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4947580 , IS a real show.  But the ones listed above aren't.

Heck, from one of the user reviews:  "This show is Fanficton. Doesn't exist. It's a Unnecessary Spinoff of Nature Cat that's over praised by it's hatedom. Do Don't watch this (Unless you really want to) and watch Nature Cat instead!"

Fair enough, if they're fan films they should be allowed on imdb.

BUT, they shouldn't be listed as being made in the '70s and '80s, decades before the real "Nature Cat" series debuted. That makes zero sense. The years should be whenever the user created/uploaded the videos.
