Requesting deletion of 15-year-old abandoned student film (imdb.com/title/tt2157636)

This was a student project abandoned 15 years ago created by me. It was never developed, never shot, and never produced. The release date on the page is entirely false, which is causing standard deletion requests to loop. The film does not exist in the physical world, has zero festival history, zero online presence, and zero public footprint.

Can someone please delete the title. There are no plans to produce it now or ever.

Apologies, the forum rate limits blocked me from posting this separately, but there are actually TWO abandoned student films from 15 years ago by the same crew that need to be wiped. Neither was ever shot or produced.

Here is the data for the second title: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2157476

Confirming the request for both titles here: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2157476 and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2157636 

Thank you,
Matt -- creator of the title pages from 15 years ago.

Hi mmb158-

In order to remove a title from IMDb, you will have to submit a request for title deletion. You are welcome to do so through our online Update form.

For more detailed information on how to delete title pages on IMDb and our policy guidelines eligibility, I encourage to review the following Help Guide.

Important things to know is that if this specific title does not have a "Title deletion" option on the 'Edit page,' the request will have to be submitted through this specific Contact form instead, for our editors to review further.

Important As our aim is to be the most complete and reliable source of movie, TV, and entertainment information on the web and in order to continue offering our users an accurate and trustworthy service, it is our policy not to alter or delete any kind of correct/factual information from our records. If, in this case, the title is deemed eligible, it will not be removed.

Cheers!

Hey Maya, 

Thanks for your message. I have submitted a title deletion request for both titles, multiple times, through the contact form you shared. It's because I put a tentative release date when I created the title that it continues to be denied for deletion. That is why I'm reaching out on here. The system keeps kicking it back.

Just to confirm, I absolutely understand IMDb's effort to provide the most complete and reliable information on the web. That is also why I am going through such efforts to delete these two titles, as they were both created by me, but never ended up being developed. As the creator of the page, the director, and the producer of the titles, I am verifying that the information of the titles is false and should be deleted in an effort to keep IMDb's database factual and accurate, and to not have projects that were never developed, shot, produced, or released, from the IMDb website. 

Please remove these titles if you can. If you can't, can you please escalate this to the appropriate editor who can.
