Restoring "Kazakhstan: Kazakh title" field

Hi Team,I’ve been a contributor since 2009, specifically focusing on the Kazakhstan film market. A couple of years ago, Col Needham helped me implement the ability to add official Kazakh-language titles for movies released in Kazakhstan (alongside Russian titles).

During a short window in 2023, I was able to populate the database with 100+ verified titles (see my list: imdb.com). However, this field has since disappeared from the contribution form.

Now, we are seeing a rise in official Kazakh dubs (like Inside Out 2), but I cannot add them correctly. Even worse, fan-made titles like 'Sonic kirpi' are being uploaded because there’s no official field to hold the correct data.

Could you please check if the Kazakhstan: Kazakh title option can be restored for verified releases? I am happy to continue the manual verification to keep the data clean.

Hi DOS-

The 'Kazakhstan: Kazakh title' is on the contribution form for AKAs but it is listed just as Kazakhstan instead which will remain as such. For example:

Cheers!

Please reconsider. This issue is NOT solved yet.

The generic "Kazakhstan" field without a language attribute leads to data mixing. As a contributor since 2009, I see that without the specific "Kazakhstan: Kazakh title" option, users start adding fan-made titles, which ruins the database integrity.

I have already provided a detailed reply with proof of official studio-approved dubs (Disney/Sony), but it seems my previous post was marked as private due to links. Please review that hidden message.

I am requesting to temporarily re-enable the "Kazakhstan: Kazakh title" attribute so I can finish verifying the official dubs and keep the Kazakhstan market data clean and professional.
