The folly of demanding proof to delete an IMDb ghost credit

I recently deleted my very old IMDb account because dealing with your automated data validation system became a deeply frustrating chore. I have returned via this forum, from the account which I had also presumed had been deleted, to point out the sheer absurdity of your current data verification loops.

IMDb insists on maintaining a completely false credit claiming Meri Welles is in Tarzan and the Valley of Gold (1966) as a character named "Ethel." She is 100% NOT in this movie. Yet, your data editors are demanding that I "upload evidence" to prove it.

I completely understand the reality of running a massive database. I know that anyone can abuse the system and try to demand random changes without any real proof. BUT in this specific case, we are dealing with an obscure actress—someone at least 99.99% of casual film fans have never even heard of—getting a totally bogus acting credit for a movie that I have personally verified 100% she is not in. Think about the sheer folly of that request. How does a contributor upload physical evidence to prove a person is absent from a 60-year-old film? Do your editors expect me to upload a 90-minute movie frame-by-frame to show she isn't on screen? Demanding proof of a negative is a logical fallacy. I assume this old ghost credit has simply been grandfathered into your database, and because your system won't drop it, copycat sites across the internet are spreading this error.

As an incentive to show you that actual film enthusiasts want to help you fix things right, I also just submitted a correction for Cauliflower Cupids (1970). A prominent image on that page completely misidentifies the blonde actress shown with Jake LaMotta as Meri Welles. It is 100% Lee Meredith. I provided an ironclad, 40-minute timestamp from the YouTube print of the film so hopefully your bots won't instantly reject it. Your rigid validation loops are actively driving away the exact historians and connoisseurs who built this database in the first place, replacing accurate film history with unverified ghost credits. Please have a human editor look at Reference #260716-231049-180000 for the Tarzan deletion and look at the image report for Cauliflower Cupids. Please fix the database, please drop the impossible demands for "absence proof," and please trust the people who actually know these films. Thank you kindly.
