I'm trying to correct an incorrect comment (it has basic geographical errors), and it's been declined three times. The only reason given is, "Does not meet contribution guidelines."
I can find nothing in the "guidelines" that gives me any clue as to what the problem may be. I tried to guess and resubmit it, but I guess I guessed wrong.
Why can't IMDB be a tiny bit user friendly and tell people why their submission is declined?

The number on the latest declined submission is #200721-040234-397000.
As for more details, this is the explanation I included with my submission:
"The original comment had voiced the assumptions that 1) "Grand Central Station" would not be used to refer to the railroad station, as it differs from the official name ["Grand Central Terminal"]; and 2) that a fall upon entering the building would be unlikely, as there are no stairs going down at the entrance. I am correcting both of those incorrect assumptions. A quick look at Google Street View will reveal many photospheres taken inside Grand Central showing the Vanderbilt Avenue entrance and that staircase. It is very well known and prominent."
The corrected submission itself is a bit longer. I will provide it if you like.
