| | Posted: | | | | What is the official or recommended way to remove an invalid profile from the INVELOS Database? The profile what i want to remove is the following: Title: My Loving Trouble 7 UPC: IFE41F45F589814AA Locality: Japan The problem with this profile is that it has the wrong locality (Japan), the rest of the data show that the locality should be Hong Kong. But there is already a profile with the same UPC/DiscID that has the right locality, so i think the profile with the Japan locality should be removed from the database. It looks like i was the fool that submitted the wrong profile  Don't ask how or why i thought Japan would be the right locality. |

| | Posted: | | | | What you can try is change the Title to:
PLEASE REMOVE THIS PROFILE FROM THE DATABASE
and explain in the contribution notes, and contribute. | | | | Hans |

| | Posted: | | | |  I was going to delete a wrong profile, but I cant because "The UPC/EAN of the contributed cover scan does not match the profile's UPC/EAN." But that was the reason why it should be deleted  |

| | Posted: | | | | You didn't put in the profile notes what you told us here. You mentioned nothing about being the wrong locality. |

But that was the reason why it should be deleted This profile shouldn't be deleted. According to this info it's a completely valid entry. Only the coverscans should be corrected, or even better the incorrect scans shouldn't have been accepted in the first place. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

According to this info it's a completely valid entry. Only the coverscans should be corrected, or even better the incorrect scans shouldn't have been accepted in the first place. And that's why I dislike this procedure of deleting profiles. I had one once that someone tried to delete. It was valid and I had it in my collection. I'd like to see crap weeded out of the database. But I'd rather not see valid things go. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

| | Posted: | | | | It still wouldn't be ok to put in the games. The rule you quoted also says to only put in the info on the bonus DVD... not the info for the game.
Those obviously can be put in for removal. | | | | Pete |

... I absolutely agree. Quote:
Those obviously can be put in for removal. If they are really just the games. If it is really a bonus DVD with wrongly entered data, then not. Something which I can't say for sure, but yes at a first look, it looks like they can be removed. |
