Error Listings and Rejected Edits 2025
« on: January 31, 2025, 12:00:46 pm »
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 such as non-video game related items
- 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:

The two following entries are a bit mixed up:
https://vgcollect.com/item/52878
https://vgcollect.com/item/53827

The first wrongfully gets the same barcode as the second, with the wrong background image also. I edited the second with the same back box art, and I’ll fix the first barcode + back box art (sporting French, Italian, German and Spanish) right after posting this.

Hi,

Its confusing that these 3 titles below the English names are in the japanese releases romanji as the main title
I took what was already on file and interchange them to match the other 5 that was created back in 2020 with the English release as its main title.

https://vgcollect.com/item/184787
https://vgcollect.com/item/154951
https://vgcollect.com/item/154950

while these below are in the english releases as main title.

https://vgcollect.com/item/184783
https://vgcollect.com/item/184785
https://vgcollect.com/item/184786
https://vgcollect.com/item/184788
https://vgcollect.com/item/184784

all are Japanese R2 cero releases but which should be the correct format in this case?

JP releases in romanji format or English release format in the main english title box.

Thank you to the mods/admins who have give share some light on this series.

very much appreicated.

Generally, our database refers to GameFAQs data to determine how our entries are named and formatted. However, we do recognize that their site will (and often does) have errors. This brief overview can be found in the Item Name section of the Advanced Style Guide:

GameTitle is the commonly accepted game name. Our primary source for common titles is GameFAQs. They can be found in the Releases section, or on pages for a specific release's box art.
A name source may have errors in their title that need to be corrected before used here. These may include using numeric vs roman numeral, title for a localised version that doesn't match the art, or a translation/romanization error.

And even when an item isn't listed on GameFAQs, we should prioritize the localized name if possible. So, for 184783, 184784, 184785, 184786, and 184788, the names which instead be used in the Name field is the localized Japanese name. For instance, 184783 should have the following information:
Name: Shallie no Atelier: Tasogare no Umi no Renkinjutsushi DX
Alt-Name: シャリーのアトリエ: 黄昏の海の錬金術士~ DX, Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea DX
