Is there a block on deleting keywords in the Plot Timeframe and Subgenre categories?

The guideline is very clear: Episode-specific keywords submitted to the TV series page: Keywords submitted to the TV series page should be relevant to and describe the entire series. Keywords that are specific to a particular episode should be added to that episode only.Episode-specific keywords submitted to the TV series page: Keywords submitted to the TV series page should be relevant to and describe the entire series. Keywords that are specific to a particular episode should be added to that episode only. I have devoted considerable time to the 30 episodes of the Syrian series Ebtasem Ayoha Al General (2023-2023). The previous contributor did not know the guideline and added THE SAME keywords to each episode, while leaving the keywords at the series level bank. I added the repeated keywords at the series level and deleted the repeated keywords for each of the 30 episodes. However… The deletions of 11 keywords in the Plot Timeframe and Subgenre categories in each episode were not accepted. Is there a block on deleting keywords in the Plot Timeframe and Subgenre categories? Should I resubmit the deletions of these 11 keywords for each of the 30 episodes? If I do, will these deletions be accepted?

Hi bradley_kent- You can re-submit the deletions and provide the re-submissions reference numbers here as soon as you do so that our staff can take a look at them. Cheers!

Well, someone(s) at IMDb is/are not communicating with someother(s) at IMDb. I cannot resubmit deletions of the 11 keywords for the 30 episodes because they have now already been deleted! Thanks. The problem is: They were ALSO deleted at the series level! I have resubmitted those incorrectly deleted 11 keywords as additions to the series level keywords. 250424-183122-742000 Track Contribution 2025-04-24 18:31:22 "Ebtasem Ayoha Al General" (2023) Keywords - 6 items added 250424-183042-970000 Track Contribution 2025-04-24 18:30:42 "Ebtasem Ayoha Al General" (2023) Keywords - 5 items added I do not mean to be arrogance or antagonistic, but I swear to God that I know more about keywords and genres than most of the staff, probably because I make so many contributions to those areas. Now, if I could just persuade the genre list managers to be sensible and logical. THAT would be a great boost to the reportable and objective truth on IMDb. If only...
