Images displaying third-party ownership or branding not deleted - Wagon Train #3

According to the image guide (https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/images-videos/image-guidelines/G27LPBQZA7EAZGJW?ref_=helpms_helpart_inline#) "Images displaying third-party ownership or branding, such as watermarks." are not allowed.* For that reason, I tried to delete several photos of Wagon Train, such as this one: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050073/mediaviewer/rm364127488/, but my contributions were declined. Was this in error or does IMDb have a different idea of third-party ownership and/or branding than I do? These are the submission numbers: #250812-225625-647402 #250812-225634-566302 #250812-225644-438102 #250812-230104-554602 #250812-230114-777302 #250812-230122-524002 #250812-230132-445202 #250812-230141-643502 #250812-230151-818802 #250812-230200-548102 #250812-230209-418802 #250812-230218-230802 #250812-230228-221602 #250812-230237-748402 #250812-230247-796702 #250812-230258-367902 #250812-230307-333902 #250812-230316-803302 #250812-230327-985602 #250812-230336-483702 *all pictures had a watermark from tv channel Starz, which started in 1994, while Wagon Train is a 1950's-1960's series, a fact I pointed out in all contributions.

@Maya: Thanks! Hopefully, this'll be (one of) the last post(s) I have to make about these kind of photo related issues. It's rather annoying to have dozens and dozens of contributions erroneously declined and seeing only (very) little improvement in how IMDb deals with these contributions.
