Just what it says: WHY?  Thank God I looked at the latest update to Alfred Hitchcock's To Catch a Thief blu-ray from 2017. Except for the title and one or two other tidbits on a writer, all data was erased - the overview, the SRP, all the audio options, features, you name it - they were all wiped out!

Why would you let this through?

Why don't you ask the last contributor in a PM?

Maybe it's a Box set, is it?

I suspect it is this one: 032429-258366

If so, it's not a box set, and according to the contribution notes, T!M was the last contributor. That makes it a bit of a mystery, because he rarely if ever makes mistakes like that.

I Can't see the actual contribution anymore because it's already approved, but it looks more like a mistake from the program or screeners. I've seen this a couple of times with some of my own profiles.

According the contribution notes only a new cast & crew was added. That would be strange if it was a box set, just like the removed overview, so I think it's just a mistake. I suggest to add the deleted data again.

If this is indeed about 032429-258366, as GSyren suggests, then yes, the latest contribution to that profile indeed came from me - but I obviously did not "wipe out" any valid data. There's no reason why I'd do that, and I can't imagine that my contribution wouldn't have gotten two "Yes"-votes if I did:



I have only submitted some corrections to both the cast and crew sections - but not to any other sections. I'm sure that I didn't remove anything, but even if I did make a mistake like that, then it would be pretty much inconceivable that both two voters and the screeners would have accepted that contribution. That's highly unlikely, so there must be something else going on here.

I'm guessing that the data that wolfman6 is missing was only ever present in his local profile, but was never submitted into the database. Note that the previous contribution notes for this profile are pretty sparse: the original contributor wrote no more than the words "Blu-Ray disc", and then the second contributor wrote: "Updated media type (just bluray), original title, default region A, release date (amazon.com)." Neither suggests that a full and complete profile was present, and not a single one of these contributions included any cover scans - so the fact that they're not there doesn't mean that they were removed - instead, they were never submitted in the first place. That may well be the case for any other field that wolfman6 is missing: it seems that nothing was removed, but it was likely never submitted into the profile in the first place. There certainly aren't supposed to be any cover scans attached to this profile, as their approval would have been visible in the previous contribution notes.

Maybe wolfman6 copied the data from some other profile and forgot about it. Like T!M says, if covers had been submitted, the contribution notes would show that.
