Contributions rejected twice, despite proof links

In the first case I've updated (#211026-022113-719000) The Thing (1982) with six additional "Other crew" listings for a photographic cameos shot specifically for the movie, as confirmed by a blog post written by film's co-producer, with extensive illustrations. Five went through with no problem, but

discouraging contributions

I'm going to use my experience this week with my contribution #220320-071011-362000 (where I was correcting someone's mistake posting an opera title) to discuss some systemic problems. I submitted a credit deletion request along with other items (adding the correct video director and the music di

Seen list for an actor has fewer titles than their filmography

This list has 292 titles: https://www.imdb.com/seen/nm0004730/ while this list has 1452 titles: https://www.imdb.com/filmosearch/?sort=year&explore=title_type&role=nm0004730 I think that an episode (maybe any title type) doesn't appear on the Seen list without a release date. Seems li

Ongoing commercial series

I have noticed that rules about adding commercials are neglected in one specific aspect, that aspect being that ongoing commercial series added as TV series rather than singular direct-to-video titles as it should be for commercials. Just a few examples I've noticed: "Calvin Klein: Obsession" (1990

Languages options missing: Babylonian, Akkadian.

Eternals (2021) happens to use Babylonian language which is right now absent as an option. Akkadian could have been a substitute, because Babylonian is sometimes considered a subtype, but neither is in the available option on IMDb. I happen to research both languages for inclusion in my own director

Waiting with Huell (2019) - several items declined

I have several items declined for Waiting with Huell (2019) despite providing a proof link (sometimes two): Despite live-action scenes of the title take around 7 minutes, full runtime is indeed 62 hours or 3720 minutes, as mentioned in multiple articles such as this one. Rather unique for a spec

Duplicate event: Raindance Film Festival

Someone added Raindance Film Festival to events as errorneous (since years should not be mentioned) "Raindance Film Festival 2022". At the same time festival already has a page and year 2022 on it. Although it should be noted that "Raindance Film Festival 2022" has a more current official websit

Guidelines expansion neccesity: uncredited voice appearances of notable actors

#211106-221333-672000 is an addition to the cast of Eternals (2021), that is, of now, very much confirmed by director and overall heavily publicized. It was, however, declined with reason stated as "Does not meet contribution guidelines". I have re-checked cast guidelines because they had slight

Web-series inexplicably shifted to 'Self' filmographies despite not being a documentary

"The Angry Video Game Nerd" (2004-) is not in a documentary web-series: while one episode indeed has making-of segment it was a one-off case which should not logically affect whole series. And yet, inexplicably, it just shifted to 'Self' filmograhies instead of 'Cast' for all cast, despite not eve

Martin Scorsese's appearance in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974)

Martin Scorsese's cameo in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) is rather well publicized and really visible if you know where to look. However my attempt at adding this to his filmography (#230402-180302-756000) bounced back with "Unable to Verify", despite the attached prooflinks.

Title not displaying Cyrillic Ukrainian title

At first I thought it was a problem with IMDb thinking I'm not from Ukraine, but as it turns out it's the only title I have this problem with.

Incorrect listing of photographic appearance on "Ellen"

In 2018 Rich Evans appeared on a photograph in the "Ellen" episode "Ellen's 12 Days of Giveaways - Day 5".

Declined edits on Tales from the Crapper (2004)

For years Tales from the Crapper (2004) correctly listed an uncredited cameo by Wes Craven, which is also specified in trivia items. However, when someone deleted it for no rhyme or reason (I imagine because it's a 'low' title and they don't want to see it in a high-profile filmography; which is mys

Does anyone know who or why the title of Sesame Street was changed?

I just noticed that Sesame Street now displays as "Song of the Cloud Forest". This seems wrong and I can find no justification for it. The Song of the Cloud Forest is a completely separate entity in the Henson library. https://muppetmindset.wordpress.com/2017/10/04/revisiting-song-of-the-cloud-fores
