Error Listings and rejected edits 2023

I am not disagreeing that there are Webkinz toys with box packaging. They may certainly exist, but the ones in question such as the one above objectively do not have packaging.

Yes, crucial information is found on the label, but the Cart Art slot is not reserved for those kinds of images. Other items have crucial information on various sides or components (i.e. Webkinz tags, spine, box bottom), but the art slots are for front, back, and media only, so those images are not submitted either.

I understand there is an issue with submitting non-media to the cart art field, and that it causes problems later down the road for the database. Would it then be in any way possible to submit the back of the code cards to the back art field for these specific instances?

There seems to be a misunderstanding for a Box Text for a strategy guide. I was told in the rejection comments "do not denote where the text is located." However, this specific text is actually printed on the guide. It's also on a different variant.

The misunderstanding might be where it starts with "[it's back]" That's actually on the back of the guide in brackets as well right at the top. It's not me notating where the text is located. This is where I copied the text from as it's the exact same except for a single bullet point that's different.

Maybe I did type something in wrong, but I'm pretty sure that was it.

That was my mistake. I assumed the submitted text included notations based on reading the brackets and "back" text. If the text is re-submitted, it will be approved.

On that note, only copy-paste information after confirming it is correct. Otherwise, it is not good practice.

Also, when submitting Box Text information, ensure there is a space between paragraph signifiers such as hyphens or bullet points and actual text. So, formatting should be like:

Code: [Select]

- Print guide fully covers the original Fallout 4 content.
and not

Code: [Select]

-Print guide fully covers the original Fallout 4 content.

Can't allow for a specific exception for an item in a general category.

Also make sure when you post about a specific item, you link to the item.

Thanks, will keep that in mind.

Here's another bundle-type listing for Epic. I can't take a look at the thread I linked earlier... it says it's off limits to me now, so I can't double check if this fits the description for being removed but I'm pretty sure it does. 

3 out of 10: Season One https://vgcollect.com/item/247886
You can download/purchase all 5 of the chapters individually.

On Epic, on the website, the way to verify an entry that appears in the launcher:
- the item in Search results has the tag "Base Game" below the art and above the title.
- using the search filtering, check the Game box under Type

As they use bother Game and Base Game to refer to the same thing... which is a design error IMO.

This item I believe was a disc swap as the cover does not reflect the updated logo as with other entries. Requesting its removal -  https://vgcollect.com/item/250964

For a few entries I may be able to remove the disc descriptor and use a publisher instead. Currently I have only managed to locate two Discs ending in # (PT / Uk) . This is despite multiple item numbers being used (Eg. 50960 for french, german and austrian), (50966 Uk, PT)

SCES - Sony Computer Entertainment Europe
# - Disney Interactive
#2 - Disney Interactive
#3 - Disney Interactive Studios

If you can confirm that this item exists with at least a disc, there isn't any reason for the entry to be removed. If you do that, then appropriate changes can be made to the entry until it's determined what kind of packaging it had.

(Both French and German language disc names are default "Disney's Stitch: Experiment 626")

https://vgcollect.com/item/235729 and the same entries in other castegories.

I was just wondering if the title should be "Final Fantasy I-VI Collection" and the alt title "Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster".

Gamefaqs currently has this series as Pixel Remaster, so it is good the way it is, but you can put "Final Fantasy I-VI Collection" into alt-name if you want. It looks like it is considering the FF logo at the top as the game release and the large Final Fantasy with the numerals as the subtitle.

I see. I'll do just that.

For the mod who put this together, the front is wrong then, you should have taken it all or left it.

https://vgcollect.com/item/222555

Before overwriting or reporting existing image information, I would advise to always clear your browser cache so that you're viewing the most up-to-date art. If you do that, you will see that the image art is correct, which we can all verify from photos taken from this eBay listing. In fact, I even re-used the scans from your duplicate entry which has since been removed, evidenced by the edit history. 222555 originally featured stock art which is the art you were viewing when reporting this item, but there is nothing to report because we permit the use of stock art.

With that said, refrain from submitting duplicate entries. 222555 was submitted without any notable details, so it served as a generic entry. From my understanding, there is only one regional Europe variant for this item, so the information you provided should have instead been submitted to it. Also, do not attach TLD information such as [UK][FR]IT][ES][NL], because it is incorrect, even in instances of regional variants. Packaging text does not always equate to TLDs. In most cases, an item like this will just be the general EU release.

[tripredacus]

TLD information such as [UK][FR]IT][ES][NL]

In almost all cases, a TLD set like this will be removed not because it is incorrect but because it is unnecessary. All regional sections have a default country, for NA it is the US and for EU it is the UK. So any UK game does not get TLD on the entry except for when a general English EU version is present (where country of origin is unknown) then the UK version can get the TLD.

There are rare instances where this type of TLD set is allowed but this is for older games where it is unknown exactly how they were released. Two examples of this are NBA Live 97 and FIFA 97 on Mega Drive. For modern games, it is usually easier to determine where things come from because they will primarily show up on the localised secondary market for 1-2 years before ending up getting distributed widely around EU countries.
