Title: Phantom Edits on Developer and Publisher
Post by: telly on May 31, 2017, 01:39:56 pm
I'm sure you guys are aware of this, but I thought I would bring it up just in case.

I'm getting some edits sent in for developer and publisher even though I didn't submit an edit for that section. Like how here it says I tried to change the developer/publisher to nothing. I think it's happened a couple times now.

Not sure what's going on there

EDIT: It seems to happen whenever I submit a platform edit. There have been three instances now where I change a platform for a game and it sends in a developer and publisher edit. It just happened with a GBA handheld.

We saw it start last week when the submit item and edit pages were changed for those fields. It is being looked into.

I figured you guys were aware of it, haha. Just wanted to make sure in case you guys thought I was sending in a bunch of weird edits willingly or something  ;)

I think I'll just stay away from editing the platform of a game for now; from my experience that's what's been sending in those extra edits.

Its not. It is any edit where the developer or publisher is set at "select..."

I've been getting the same except all of the pub/dev edits are denied usually saying the information is already on file, but I'm not changing them when I edit something. I also noticed the dropdown bars now work for Pubs/Devs, at least on my browser they do. This happened a lot last week, I haven't really noticed any this week.

I guess it depends on who is going through the queue.

Hasn‘t this problem been fixed yet? I just received 16 publisher and developer rejections (“Information Already on File”) even though I made no attempt at modifying those fields. This occurred while working on the PSP UMD Video [NA] section.

It has been fixed. You should not see this issue any longer.
