I'm trying to submit a new profile - ie. the EAN does not yet exist in the database. So, I submit it, and give the following as contribution notes:
All info verified by DVDShrink, DVD Info Pro, Cover and the disc itself. All cast and crew from end credits.

It gets declined with this reason:
Quote:
The contribution notes indicated a valid source for the changes, but the contents of the changes appear to come from an invalid source. If the source is valid, recontribute with an extended note. If not, please do not contribute the data that comes from an invalid source, such as a third party database.

Okay, fine. So I submit it again, this time elaborating on the notes:

Copied from existing profile (EAN 5-014437-881236, UK locality) with minor changes to reflect this release. Ofcourse, correct cover scans for this release also included. Cast and Crew verified against end credits.

Guess what? It gets declined - with the same reason! 

And yes, I did remember to change the locality from UK to Denmark. I jsut can't think of a way to elaborate further on the notes. Any idea what I should put in there - or has Invelos started seeing their own database as third party?

Good point! There is one - I'll try removing him and re-submit...

That's the beauty of the net - it doesn't have to take more than a few minutes - provided people understand the fine art of going for the ball instead of the man! 

I admit, though, that I expected an american to be the first to answer! It's 1:15 am here, but apparently Jykke is a night-person like me...

Heh - you're probably so far north you have daylight 24 hours a day at the moment... 

Anyway, removing the uncredited role was enough for Gerri to show me mercy. The contribution has been accepted and released!

No, I'm in Helsinki. And the "midnight sun" period is already over even in the northernmost part of Finland.
