I wouldn't consider the two "No" votes as an abuse.  Remember just because a contribution has "No" votes doesn't mean the screener will deny the contribution.  If I remember correctly they are voting no because the case type is wrong.  Really the easy thing is just change the case type (even though you didn't originally contribute it) and resubmit your contribution.

You already have the other data so it should be easy to recontribute and just cut and paste your previous contribution notes.

One shouldn't vote "no" on data that the contributor has not added or changed.

If the change is simple, I often add/change this additional data.

But, I often update DVDs before I give them away. I'm not going to unpack them to check on data that I did not update.

When this happens I send the "no" voters a short note asking them to change their vote since their vote has nothing to do with my contribution.

If they do not change their vote, I edit the profile and alert the screeners that the "no" votes are not relevant to my contribution.

Checking the box for 'Slip Case' changes the case type section so, while I wouldn't have voted that way, I do understand the 'no' votes.

I had once a no vote because the coverscans were not so good. But he then did an own contribution with great coverscans and I did withdraw my contribution. I think you can vote no if something is not good, but it is then nice if a no voter can do it better, how he did in this case, to do an own and better contribution. That is welcome, I always accept if somebody can do it better and votes not only no and does nothing himself.

I find doing contributions a good thing. Everybody can profit then from a good database with most of there films. If I spend so much time do enter the data just for me it is nice if also others can take profit of it. Sure, it would be much easier to do all just for myself, but it is also fun to do something for others and not only me, makes me more happy than working just for me :-).

21 yes vote, 2 no votes. For the 2 no vote I believe  this "No" vote is considered an abuse of the voting privilege

Why is this an abuse?

They voted no, and pointed out a perceived error.  Whether or not the error is yours is irrelevant.

Once the no votes are cast, it is up to you.  Do you correct the perceived errors?  Do you PM the person and explain why they are not errors?  Do you let it slide and allow the screeners to decide if this is an improvement to what is there.  (more than likely, it will get approved, and somebody will correct the case type next)  NO BIG DEAL

This is not personal.  This is not about who does the most or the fastest.

Just decide what you are going to do.  No anger, no ill will.  I am sure that obelisk and eaglejd have no animosity.

Thank you Charlie, no ill will here, just pointing out the error and leaving it up to the contributor to correct it or not.

No biggy, I don't see what the problem is. Darknite shouldn't take it so personal.

Just one minor point:
If you can check the box for an item there is a difference to the existing profile (Means: Change).
It really doesn't matter whether you changed it yourself or merely kept (outdated) data. If you choose to contribute this data (check the box) you confirm that the existing data is incorrect and your contribution is correct.
No problem if this is true and again no problem if it isn't. Just resubmit and simply don't check the box for Case Type this time.
