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.

Company: Self
https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?companies=co0652305 It looks like a handful of persons adding their own content to IMDb listed the company producing their work as "Self"—presumably meaning they themselves, not a company called "Self." This company should probably be deleted.

Redundant writing credits on merged title
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083613/fullcredits/ The title above was merged a couple of years ago. There used to be a separate title page that was classed as a feature film rather than a TV episode. Most likely as a result of that merge, each of the three writers credited on the film are credited

Declined review!?
I got my, first ever, review declined. How is that even possible? I have written how I experienced what I have been watching. But that is not allowed? In a personal review? Are someone deciding who's thoughts and feelings towards art are ok to express or not? Insanity! I would not be surprised
