First time contributor, submitted my first goof (approved, but in process), punctuation is bad, how to fix? #250310-072753-885000

#250310-072753-885000 I just submitted a Goof and the status is approved. I messed up the punctuation, and I don't know if it will correctly show for both 'goofed' episodes. There is a factual goof in 2 episodes of a 3 episode series documentary. I submitted a 'Goof' <24hrs ago. It shows in my history as approved but not yet on the website for the movie. I don't think I did it right. Can it be 'cleaned up' by me before it goes to the website? The punctuation looked ok when I typed it, but it ran lines together and I think it only shows as applied to episode 2. The goof is in both ep. #1.1 & #1.2 I used the little arrow to check multiple episodes. (I thought I correctly checked ep#1 and ep#2 from the pop-out list). Did I do the episode selection wrong? How do I clean up the bad punctuation? (Can I at this point?) Thank you for your guidance!

Update from OP: I explored and now see that my submitted Goof IS there, but only under ep. 2. I see the episode selection menu will only select one episode at a time. I also found the correct/delete feature. I have since posted the same goof description on the series main page. I now have it posted under the main series page, and under ep.2. I do not have it under ep.1, which also has the same goof. I still can't seem to get a linefeed after the part where I say "Such as here:" I tried changing the 'colon' to a 'semicolon' but still appears the same. Would a 'period' make if observe the linefeed? Will it only work with double-linefeeds? (resulting in a blank line I didn't want). It looks the way I intend it in the preview, but some of the linefeeds are then removed when it posts... Since the documentary IS about how the material and planets revolving around the Sun could have caused the Earth and Moon to form, I want this goof to be available to those wishing to learn about the early Solar System. I hope to gain some guidance here. Should this goof be posted only under the series main page, or under each episode that the goof reappears in, or both? [The third episode dealt with early life, and did not have any depictions of the solar system or planet motions. ie, no goof] Thank you

Hi troubleshooter- Thank you for posting the submission reference number! Further taking a look, as these goofs are specific to the episodes, they should be submitted to the respective episodes. The corrections on the goof for episode 2 have already updated and the goof for episode 1 has been re-submitted on your behalf. For further detailed information on Goofs including our formatting rules, I encourage you to review our following Help Guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/goofs/GFDUF27RBTQGS8UZ?ref_=helpsrall# Cheers!
