Trying to add a short production documentary, but running into deep problems

I have twice (250318-070813-056000, 250319-034754-105000) tried to add a short behind-the-scenes documentary, which unfortunately has the same title as the feature film it was promoting. The first time, it was rejected because it was confused with the feature film, and I was told the title is already in the database; the second time, it was only partially accepted because it was again confused with the feature film, and half the submitted data - movie connections, a couple of cast entries, a 6-minute running time, an external link, etc. - was simply added improperly to the feature (I've now submitted deletions for these items). I would have hoped that the Documentary genre, plot outline and running time (6 minutes as opposed to 3-1/2 hours) would have tipped off whoever reviewed the submission that it was a different title, but no luck on that. The documentary has aired occasionally on TCM, as indicated by the link I included to its page in their database. Could a staff member please put this title through?

Hello scgary66, I have checked on the submission, I was not able to re submit on your behalf, can you re submitted the new title and provide me with the 18-digits submission number and I can approve it for you.

Thanks! (Though I noticed that the title has a III attached to the year rather than II, presumably because of the earlier partial approval; don't know if that can be fixed.)
