The Movie Database Support

Hi there,

For some movies, I'm unable to edit specific fields as they appear to be locked in the right corner of that attribute. Can you please let me know what's the logic for blocking the same field for some of the movies and for some not? Is there any way to unblock them for editing?

Thanks, Sergiu

Hello,

Moderators will typically lock fields to preserve good data. On the primary facts page, for example, I will typically lock Original Title, Original Movie Language, Movie Status, Video, Convert to Collection and Adult Movie fields. Sometimes fields such as the Overview will be locked if there's been vandalism in the past. These fields are locked as we come across them, so that is why fields are locked on some film pages but not others.

Hi @sergiunastrut, yes, we lock as much data as we can. It's a site policy for the reasons Rebecca mentioned.

If you see a field that is locked incorrectly, you can use the "Report" button to report it and a moderator can look into it.

Thanks for both your replies, Travis and Rebecca. That makes sense. One additional question based on that: for Production - Country, would it be possible to eliminate sorting multiple countries alphabetically, and keep the initial added order instead? E.g: Spain, Croatia, United States Current behavior: Croatia, Spain, United States

The reason I'm asking for this is basically because I use Trakt.tv as well and since they pull the production country using the first record [Croatia instead of Spain as in the example], would impact filtering over there.

Unfortunately this is not supported/planned at this time. There's no guarantee of ordering on any of our "array" fields (companies, genres, countries). In order to ensure ordering, there's both backend and front-end work that would need to be done.

I'll have to think about this in the future but for now, it's a low priority given all of the other things I need to get done. wink

Hi! I'm attempting to add music as a genre to Seven Brides For Seven Brothers, but the page is locked. Hitting the report button doesn't seem to send me anywhere either?

I am looking at Dangerous Grounds and this is locked with only 1 season showing. There has definitely been a second season (just finished watching it) and possibly a 3rd. Can this be unlocked so that at least the 2nd season info can be added?

This series is not locked.

You just have to change the status of the show from "Terminated" to "Returning Series" to be able to add more seasons. Don't forget to set back the status to "Terminated" once the seasons have been added.
