Mixed up Podcast & Animated Show Credits- could use the help of other contributors

Hi all, I happened to notice something weird going on with the credits for this podcast: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29691909. Just a small podcast, no actual credits from the podcast (creator etc) appear on the imdb page, aside from episode titles (cross referenced with https://open.spotify.com/show/0vd8IaELNzzQVCMSsTdQDb). But somehow an episode of Backyardigans titled "Riding the Range" was added as an episode of the podcast(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31800760/?ref_=ttrel_ov_bk), with credits that don't match that episode of Backyardigans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e91jVXHPShI https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0958989/?ref_=ttep_ep_7 A similar thing seems to have happened on at least one other episode https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29700359/?ref_=tt_cst_epp_sm_1 Which seems to be related to a podcast episode with a similar title (https://open.spotify.com/episode/2F4RZxNpWoaM18ViA6bMy7?si=X5U2_pdrRmKFRxQAYU47KQ), but the credits are clearly all wrong, as is the synopsis etc. I'm happy to go ahead and just delete this false data, and correct the episode title, but I feel like this podcast could use a deeper dive from editors who look at podcasts more regularly or who know about what the false data might actually be from. Thanks!

Hello, 

It's been over a month and this clearly false data is still showing on imdb. I am more than happy to delete it myself, but if there is an ongoing investigation, are they not able to archive the pages for that investigation, while removing the false data from public view? Thanks!

I understand that it is under investigation. Did you read my question? I asked if it was possible to remove the false data while it is under investigation.

Hello @isanyoneleft,

Thank you for following up on this. Our editors removed the fake/false data and also the necessary internal measures have been taken to prevent any fake submissions from the user in future.

Thank you for helping to keep IMDb updated.

Cheers!!
