I want these film pages deleted

Hello! So recently today, i decided to delete my films "the zombie apocalypse" and "BACKROOMS: THE MOVIE" off of YouTube, as i don't want them available anymore, however they are still on IMDb. the zombie apocalypse: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt34930822/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_cdt_t_18 BACKROOMS: THE MOVIE: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt34932436/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_cdt_t_17 Also, my film No Escape is listed as a spinoff to BACKROOMS: THE MOVIE. I want that removed as the film is not a spinoff to the deleted short film anymore and is now a stand alone film. No Escape: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35977310/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_2_unrel_t_3

Hi, weirdcorekidofficial: Since both films were available on YouTube at some point, they will not be removed from IMDb in any case. According to https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/contribution-information/i-tried-to-delete-data-but-it-still-appears-on-imdb-why/GBC4F3QWUTSVFV3B: "IMDb aims to be the most comprehensive and reliable source of information on movies, TV and celebrities. We are committed to accuracy and it is our longstanding policy not to alter or remove correct factual information from our records. [...] IMDb will not remove accurate information. If you try to delete an item of data which is accurate, your delete will not be processed."

I agree with IMDB's stance on this. Once something has been published, no matter how short a time it is available, it can never be "unpublished". Embarrassment with your earlier work is not a valid excuse!
