Unable to remove incorrect release date from title I originally created

Hello,

I am the original creator of the IMDb page for this title: #260419-171840-662000

In 2021, I created this page for a different short film project. That original project was cancelled and never released.

Later, I reused the same IMDb page for my current short film, Binnen. All information on the page has since been updated to reflect the current film.

The problem is that the original Netherlands release date of 2 January 2021 is still attached to the title. This date belongs to the cancelled project and not to the current film.

The correct Netherlands release date for the current film has already been added, but every attempt to remove the old 2 January 2021 release date is rejected with "Unable to verify." The release date should be 30 November 2026.

Because the release date cannot be removed, IMDb automatically marks the title as Released (2021), which also prevents me from updating the production/development status correctly.

Could an IMDb staff member please review this title manually and remove the historical release date that belongs to the cancelled project?

I can provide the contribution reference numbers for the rejected submissions if needed.

Thank you very much for your time.
