There is a double profile under my name. My fault. I watched the helpful little video on how to merge names, but I did not find it straightforward. Had a BRILLIANT idea - in my infinite wisdom I thought - hey just delete the account with the evil double. What did I forget? They were both created under the same email.
If you search me, I still come up under the 2 names, but I cannot administer the account and make changes.
HOLY STUPIDICUS on my part.
I appreciate any help. condolences etc...

Are you sure the prior merge attempt has been declined?
Check these pages for status:

and
https://contribute.imdb.com/updates/history

It might still be pending:

187 Name Merges as old as 17 February 2020

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6071614/
should be the one to stay.
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6295827/
should be the one to merge into the one above.
One of the credits on (II) already exists on (I), the other does not.

You say you tried to merge them? That's the right course, if you started with (II) and  chose

To make sure you're merging the correct direction (to the right name), I'd paste the name constant into the submission box:

I would uncheck the Preserve name since the names are exactly the same.

I'll leave the actual submission to you.
