Keywords getting declined?
Reference number 220520-014837-630000. I submitted some keywords but I noticed that the submission was declined and was wondering what was up. The movie is publicly available for viewing on Tubi, so it seems like it should be verifiable, if that's the issue.

Someone continues to delete keywords soon after IMDb accepts them on a variety of obscure titles.
