What shall we do if a title in a language is the same as the original title ?
One easy answer would: thats fine - just let it empty. And what if the title changed and it changed to the original title? Should we still have a alternative title but no "current" title?
Another option would be a "same as original" flag so that i do not get suggests like "missing german title for 'Pretty Little Liars'" on the contribute site (https://www.themoviedb.org/contribute).
Or just let us just copy the original title ...
Thank you

No. Just leave it empty. It just needs to get fixed on the contribute page, if possible. But it's been noted lots of times before. Just refresh, and you'll see other titles!

Once the title gets locked it will not be included in the contribution page anymore. That's up to moderators though, but you can always ask to have the fields locked as well.

Hey Travis - sorry but thats not true. I was asked to contribute the german title for "Pretty Little Liars" ID #31917 and it is locked.
And btw.: What are the requirements to become a mod?
Cheers

It should be, so I'll have to take a look.
We look for users who have stayed active for 6-12 months and have shown qualities like; ask questions first before blowing up data to match a personal preference, willing to work with tips and hints from moderators. Also, the better your attitude is around here the more likely you are to be asked.
For you, asking first is a great first step. But we wouldn't definitely need to see you active around here for the next 6 months minimum before anything else.
Thanks!
