Changing the title of a Documentary series

Trying to change the Documentary series name for more than a month, without receiving a response to my requests from IMDb. This concerns the change of the title of this Documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9874910/
The problem is that the current title is in Greeklish (a mixture of Greek and English) which is not universally understood. So, I am providing the English title which is "Ancient Greek Philosophers". Proof of the correct title can be found here: https://vimeo.com/312927953 and here http://greenolivefilms.com/long-form/item/410-ancient-greek-philosophers-ep5-justice-and-the-state.

After more than a month of submitting the correction, I am yet to receive a response.
Submission reference(s): #191219-104956-255000 #191114-094554-998000 #191114-105204-441000 #191118-080812-463000 #191216-073223-070000 #191216-073309-526000

I don't know what kind of "response" you are expecting. We don't get an email when a contribution is accepted. We have a webpage we can check for most contribution types:
https://contribute.imdb.com/contributions/history

In checking the alternate titles page (click on the release date on the title page), I see the title you have suggested:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9874910/releaseinfo
(original title) Arhaioi Ellines filosofoi: Gefyres gnosis
Ancient Greek Philosophers: Bridges of Knowledge
(new title) Ancient Greek Philosophers

Unfortunately, none are identified as an English language title, so although I have set my preferences to see an English title if available, I see only the first one on the title page. 

Things have changed recently regarding titles, so you may want to wait for an official response before attempting more edits. (A "champion" is just a fellow user of IMDb.)

Simply put, I want the title to be changed and it has not changed.
I don't want the Alternate titles, I want the Main title changed.
I am aware of the contribution history, that's where I extracted all the references I've put in there to demonstrate how many requests I've submitted without success and without being given a reason why this has not been changed yet.

The link I gave you is for a beta version of contribution statuses that DOES give a reason for rejections. The reason might be vague, but it IS a reason.

Thanks for your reply bderoes.
Unfortunately, it appears as "pending" here as well. 
I've already sent them an email hoping they can at least give me an explanation on whether this has been pending for so long.
