Review not approved, but why?

I wrote a lengthy review on Fast X in exactly the same way I alway write reviews, which are ofcourse personal opinions, but not personal attacks or anything. This is the first time I did it for IMDB, and put some nice effort in it, explaining why I thought it was bad seen as the outcome of a franchise that got further and further away from what it initially got its fanbase from. But somehow this got rejected because it violated guidelines? But it says nowhere what I did wrong or shouldn't have written. Which guidelines were vioalated then? And how can I adapt it to be in accordance with the guidelines if I have no idea what is wrong with it?

Is it possible to mark the specific guideline(s) on the basis of which you decline a review in general, or my Fast X in particular? If I was in the wrong, I am sorry, but help me learn from my mistakes by at least telling me what mistake I made? Or is this maybe some sort of policy to get users to participate and contribute less, because of reasons? I don't even understand why I have to ask this in the first place. Wouldnt it make more sense to educate your community about the rules than to just slap 'm in their face and punish them for trying to partake?

Hi @Grimago,

Please can you provide the 18-digit submission reference so we can look into this for you?

@Grimago yes that's correct, thank you!

I can see that your review was declined because it contained a profane word, which is against our guidelines. You may resubmit the review without the word and it should be approved by our team.

Thanks!
