WRITER and CREATED by credit deletion declind

Hello, I submitted a request for deletion of "writer" and "crated by" credits for a person who only has "idea by" credits in the show's end credits. I uploaded photos of the show's end credits showing showrunners and screenwriters - and clearly the name of the person I have requested to be deleted is not credited as a writer or as a creator. I have done this for entire first season, choosing edit episode by episode. However the request has been denied "ReasonDoes not meet contribution guidelines." Contribution 2025 #251112-175725-525000 without any further explanation. After this blatantly wrong denial, I made a new request to change the "writer" and "created by" credits to "idea by" - again, "idea by" is the only credit the person has if you look at all of the show's end credits. Again I uploaded screenshots showing the name of the person credited as "idea by" and screenshots of all the screenwriters' names from the end credits to prove this person doesn't have writer and crated by credits. IMDB then accepts this but instead of changing the wrong "writer" and "created by" credits to just "idea by", you ADDED "idea by" to the person's name, but didn't delete the wrong credits?!? Contribution #251113-175352-631000 It is very interesting to investigate and understand how IMDB gave someone Writer and Created by credits out of thin air, when the end credits don't have that person as a writer or as a showrunner or as a creator? How is that possible and what are you going to do about it?
