Need staff help on a few items.
First off, I had this new episode addition declined, a very rare thing, I looked up evidence and pretty sure I entered it, not that the receipt shows that for these things, so was this an error on my part or IMDb's?
#240430-043853-607000
Next up, I found someone had wrong added a bunch of Production Coordinator credits to the page of a Brazilian Cinematographer, so I did a split to move those to the correct page, with explanation and links but was declined. Can you relook at it, please.
#240511-083034-280000
Thirdly, there's a show called Smiling Friends, that has joke in memoriam's on every episode, sometimes for characters that died in the episode, sometimes just made up people, all 'Crazy Credit' type stuff, but recently someone has made name pages for these as if they are real people, so can you delete them all, here's the list.
Quinton 'The Animal' Gwillington
And on topic of that last name, I was declined adding it to 'Crazy Credits' because obviously some sleepy data editor think they are a real person too even though I added a screenshot of the googly eyed bugger here: #240513-190302-742000
Can you approve that one.
Also can this contribution be cancelled, accidentally submitted to same episode, half was rightly auto declined but anything left pending should be declined also. #240514-213741-824000
And lastly, probably thanks to contributing becoming a numbers competition spamfest these days are these ridiculous credits.
Brief backstory, in the early 80's there were Japanese toylines by Takara called Diaclone & Micro Change, most of these toys were repurposed as early Transformers toys. Takara had a team of designers, 2 of whom went on to work on Macross and Gundam so they have IMDb pages, and recently someone has decided to add them both to every Transformers title, all movies, every single TV episode, just 100's of uncredited 'original creator' credits in the writer sections ,which is a massive stretch in itself but shouldn't be allowed anyway. These two pages
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0594482/
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0442828/
All that should be cleaned up and it should be looked into who did it and what else have they done along the same lines.
Thanks.
Extra ask, could the images below be changed from 'poster' to 'still frame' internally, obviously some bad choices or misclick action on the selector happened.

Hi @VonPunk -
To investigate the dubious credits and name pages about the Japanese toys, I have created ticket V1386286715.
All the rest has been taken care of.
Cheers!

I think the issue at ticket V1386286715 must be resolved now, I noticed all but 8 credits vanished shortly after it was filed, I gave it a couple of weeks and yesterday I deleted those outstanding 8, so it is all cleaned up. Hope they are blocked from being re-added. Thank you.
