Separate IMDb entry for the physical release with selected episodes of a series?

If a series has a physical release with selected episodes, should it have a separate entry?

@Maya​ No specific series, it's a general question. Wanted to know whether IMDb have any specific guideline regarding that.

@malayali​ -Thank you! It will depend on the series and also on several factors, which will be reviewed on a case by case basis.

For example, depending on the content of the re-release, we may list the standalone series with shell-episodes (as not to duplicate credits for the original release), or if there is new content and re-structured credits, we may allow a completely separate title listing with the credits. If there is no new footage or credits, we may retain the original listing and the re-release would function as an Alternate Version.
