Error Listings and rejected edits 2022

[tripredacus]

Use this topic to report issues with Items. Examples include:
- Items with mismatching pictures/information
- Physical item cancelled and not released
- Item has watermarked or photoshopped images
- Invalid items in the database
- Any concerns about rejected edits
- Any explanations about an edit you want to do so that it won't be rejected

When you post about an item, include the current title, a link to the item in question and a description for the report. Do not edit posts to add additional content to it, make a new post instead.

When a report is processed, a member of DB staff will use the strikeout text effect on the link so that you, and we, know that the item has been handled already.

Report Duplicate items into the Duplicate Items thread here:

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is now named PUBG: Battlegrounds. Being a digital version there's no packaging to justify keeping the old name unless digital versions are gonna go by their 1.0 release names only.

I can find no information regarding the rename, and whether or not the game technically may be considered a different version or not. None of our name sources have updated to the current name, so for now I would just put it into alt-name field.

https://vgcollect.com/item/212511 ended up submitting as a blank entry and when I tried to edit it to add the information I originally edited as it just went back to the edit submission page so I assume my edits didn't even go through.

Just going to remake my new item submission now.

EDIT: https://vgcollect.com/item/212512 also ended up submitting as a blank item and I have no clue what is going on. I'll just hold off on submitting for now.

I'm just wanting to report that your edit submissions did not appear in the edit queue. I'm not sure what the issue was, but submissions from others since then have gone through just fine as well as new entries being submitted.

Okay so it's done it again. I'm convinced that something I'm adding to the game details or images is causing the system to act out. Now there are 3 blank entries courtesy of me trying to add the "Harry Potter Collection [IT]" for GBA.

They should probably be deleted.

I guess I can test that theory out once I have something else to add?


EDIT: I think something I'm doing is wrong, I just tried adding "Paws & Claws: Best Friends: Dogs & Cats [CA]" and it resulted in another blank entry: https://vgcollect.com/item/212605

I didn't make any suggestions before because I had thought you had already created a similar topic about the issue in the past. More than likely, the images you are uploading are too large which causes a timeout error when processing information to the site that results in a blank entry being created. Below are a few other threads that also experienced the same issue:

Problem with adding new games
Database upload bug?
New Entry does not work
Error Adding Games

That is absolutely the issue as I have now found. I re-sized all images used to 25% of the original and my 2 games submitted just fine, thanks so much! I will now keep image size in mind in the future.

The below is the full list of blank entries I accidentally made if someone could please delete them? Thanks

Can a mod check the barcode on this game
https://vgcollect.com/item/196476

Google show a switch game, ebay nothing, and my version has 2 different numbers on the end.

The EAN is what is in the URL for the publisher's official site, and then is replicated on other websites as well. Most results seem to be French language sites. For PS4 there seems to only be 2 versions, the one like on this entry and the boxed version which doesn't have an entry. There is a snapcase version (that looks like an AES game case) but that doesn't have any barcode on it at all. So the barcode on this has been changed to the one found in UK with this back:

Thanks, i will add the backcover.

Lets do one more
https://vgcollect.com/item/170678

Mine has this barcode, 5055060949429. The one thats on here doesnt give much hits.
And my cover is different, it has the playstation exclusive unlock horizon zero dawn on it top right. And the one in the database has a provisinal cover.

Unfortunately there is confirmation on that EAN: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175040484715
I have updated the info on the entry to put in the back number and the inlay number (that number is the EAN). The one you say you have seems the same front cover but the back cover is different (the back number is different) and the inlay of course has the different EAN also.

The one you have: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/194744712778

So this situation is one where we can't tell which is which. Could one be a UK version and one be a Scandinavian version? Did one come inside of some other packaging and another not? Doesn't seem to be a way for me to tell.

I can't do a compare on the inlay text and there are no manuals or inserts for any of the listings on Ebay to give a clue. So this means that 170678 will need to get a (IS70049-01) descriptor, and you can add your version with a (IS70049-X1) descriptor. The front arts on both versions are the same as far as I can tell.

Not really confirmation as that first one also uses the provisinal cover. And that on has a cd box with a promo/nfs cd.

Second link is what i have.

You're looking at the wrong item, as the original eBay listing has already ended its auction. 5055060949320 / IS70049-01 is located here.

As previously mentioned, both IS70049-01 and IS70049-X1 have the exact outer packaging aside from the back number and presumed 7-digit spine number that is additional to the Sony serial. At the same time, both items include the exact disc. The existing entry currently features outdated stock art as the front image art slot.
