Not going to name drop, but a user here is completely out of their mind to contribute blatantly erroneous garbage to the database.
I want them to be blocked from contributing.

Here's one profile they try to mess up:
https://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=168565&PageNum=LAST

Being shut down twice already isn't enough of a lesson, and they make no changes to "improve"/correct the contributions.     

I sent them an angry PM, not sure it will have effect.

I agree. And what makes it even more scary is that this person has 1660 accepted profile contributions. One has to wonder how much crap that they have gotten accepted into the online database ...

Yeah. I don't think I've seen this user before. They've been registered here since 2015!
Maybe I'm silly, but even their avatar makes me suspicious. A tornado...
And the fact that they never posted in the forum and all their collection (if they have one) is hidden.

The contribution in question was already processed now, which means the user either withdrew it or they were blocked...?

As a regular user, one can of course not do any digging regarding past contributions. Maybe someone should and see if a ban is warranted.
Not gonna lie, I'm a bit curious.

Maybe someone else here has any memory of this person/user?

Edit:
Wait a minute!
The user (ellenbrook) is now on my block list. I certainly didn't block them. Does this prevent me from seeing their contributions? That is a serious flaw, if so. They can block just anyone and cause all sorts of mischief here without us knowing it!
I say ban the user ASAP!

I think what you’re seeing is a PM block. That shouldn’t prevent you from seeing their contributions.

Yeah, I Also know this exactly user very well. I have already updated profiles here several times, but this user always gives incorrect data as feedback. Some time ago I sent a few message to this user, and eventually he blocked me in private messages side.

Oh. I see. Makes more sense.

Thanks for your input! Giving you a positive rating in return.

Maybe someone would say I'm overreacting, but considering the database we have all built up with such hard work during so many years, and finding people who actively try to ruin it, I think it's a big deal.
Looks like we are dealing with a real troll here, and my vote is, again, to permanently ban ellenbrook, if possible and at least from being able to contribute or vote. The evidence already put forth should be enough.
I mean, there can be mistakes, arguments and disagreements, but this is pretty clear cut.

I've dealt with ellenbrook as well. On this profile (6-420201-151679, Van Wilder: Party Liason), I added the original title of National Lampoon's Van Wilder on April 14, 2026. I was cleaning up some Dennis Hill/Dennis M. Hill profiles with corrected production years and OT's. Well, after 3 declined contributions of erasing the OT, she (he?) is trying a FOURTH time. I voted no to this one as well.
My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it!

I had to vote No on your Van The Man contribution. The OT should be the release title from the USA: National Lampoon's Van Wilder.

No, I am not wrong. Van the Man/Van Wilder: Party Liason/National Lampoon's Van Wilder are all the same movie: National Lampoon's Van Wilder (as it was released in it's country of origin - the USA).
