On the admin side, it's surprising what people try to submit because they consider it an "edit" with no good rationale.

Well to be honest, we don't get to know what the rationale is because there is no way for someone to send that along too.

But yes, there is still a lot of work to be done with the existing entries. It will take a lot of time but we'll get it all sorted eventually.

Indeed! And the community does a great job submitting errors and bringing up issues to the admins.

Yeah, I imagine it's frustrating on both sides of the edit issue.

Although I'll admit to occasionally allowing my OCD to make me a little cranky, I never get upset at anyone involved in the process because I know we're all after the same thing - to make the db as thorough and accurate as possible. That's the problem - we care TOO MUCH! :P

Anyway, thanks for all your hard work Admins.  ;D

There were 3 blanks before that number. I was able to see them from the admin side. Thanks!

AFAIK, there was no "metal case edition." The steelbook case was empty and a pre-order bonus at GameStop with the standard version of the game.

Thoughts on how to handle the listing? We already have a listing for the empty steelbook here.

Road Runner (Tengen - Black Cartridge)
http://vgcollect.com/item/13450

I thought about inquiring regarding the release status but now that I think about it, the game was released without the Nintendo Seal of Approval so Unofficial Release is probably appropriate. The title though is confusing as there's no other versions besides this one listed and I don't recall there ever being a gray cart or non-Tengen version released.

Removed qualifiers on the title.

The description will need to be changed on 37943 to indicate what exactly the item is. The exclusivity comment there currently is not enough. Then merge the entries.

Submitting an edit to change this to the NA category. There is no NA entry for this game yet, but the current entry is in the JP section

Hello, I'm new to the site. I update my collection and try to add as many informations as possible for each game so I edit a lot and I create some new entries too. One edit I've made has been rejected cos "Information Already on File" but it was not.

It is the first Grandia II Dreamcast (EU) that was on the site. It was empty so I added all the informations for the [UK] version including pictures, as I supposed it was the 'main' version for most people here before but the name edit has been rejected : http://vgcollect.com/item/46736

Those are the different versions I created btw : http://vgcollect.com/item/105261 (Grandia II [DE]) & http://vgcollect.com/item/105262 (Grandia II [FR])

Can people/admins tell me if it's fine to leave it that way without the [UK] in the name ? (cos it now has the uk number and barcode I added)

PS : I wasn't sure if I had to post this here or in the 'duplicate' thread

There were two versions of Ico that had the "PlayStation the Best release" in Japan. I didn't know how to distinguish the two so I tried to make one as "Gray Border" and one as "White Border". Let me know if I did that wrong; since the Gray border is considered a reprint, I could have designated the two entries that way instead.

Gray (Has yet to be accepted/denied for edits) http://vgcollect.com/item/85323

White (the entry I just made) http://vgcollect.com/item/105323

EDIT: I resubmitted the edit because I spelt Gray wrong the first time. And sorry for all the edits, admins, I probably submitted too many at a time  :-[
