Solved

mini bio declined

I'm trying to update my biography that was not originally written by me, to better reflect my current career. But the bio got declined for not meeting "contribution guidelines." I combed through the guidelines and thought the only relevant thing might be that I removed an (incorrectly) named birth city and replaced it with "American." Everything else is nearly exactly the same, with tweaks to just 2 of the 4 sentences. Can anyone tell me what might be the problem? Or if there's a way for me to get support directly? For reference, this is the receipt number: #250828-010654-578000 Thank you!

Hello astrocari The rejection reason is that you are not allowed to remove valid and factual information from the Bio as mentioned in our Guidelines: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/how-can-i-delete-or-update-my-biography/GX5BSYZH2QZEX49A?ref_=helpart_nav_3#

Thanks for the response! The information is not factual, though. What I'm trying to change it to, is factual. Should I just continue trying to adjust it to meet the guidelines?
