Wrong info on my IMDB page - Can't fix it

Years ago a friend created an IMDB page about me. He entered the wrong birth place and for years I've been trying to update it from my end but IMDB staff had ignored all my efforts. Is there any solution to this?

Hi Lazarous- In order for our staff to review, can you post the 18-digit submission reference number for this contribution(s)? Cheers!

@Lazarous- Thank you! I can see that this is a submission reference that was declined to add a Mini-bio? Is this correct?

Yes I believe so. If changing the bio that much is an issue, I'm fine to cancel that even though this is about me, but I would definitely like to change the birth place to South Africa.

@Lazarous- The mini-biography is fine and it has been re-submitted on your behalf. The changes iwll be live shortly. Please note however, that if you are trying to submit a correction to the Birthdate instead which this is a separate data, you will have to provide further supporting evidence. For birthdates, we are looking for links to public records, printed publications, official documents (driver's license, birth certificates, passports), or social media. We do not accept evidence from unverifiable sources. For example, Wikipedia or any collaboratively edited wiki-style sites unless these include online citations and external links which provide supporting evidence of the birthdate. For more detailed information, you can review our Birthdate Help Guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/biographical-data-guidelines/GMT9T242VQADZUQM#birthdeath Cheers!
