I got sent a message from the IMDB Help Desk saying I needed to
provide links in the Miscellaneous Links section for pages I'm trying to
make when I had already provided acceptable links in that section when I
sent the request to make the pages before I received this message, what
is going on?

Please post your last full data submission here on this message board. You can copy it out of the receipt you would have received from IMDb by e-mail immediately after sending it in. Some of the regulars on the board may review it and, if they can, they may provide suggestions as to how to improve the submission to get it included in the database. (Also, please include the submission reference number -- it's an 18-digit number that will look something like 140123-123456-789000.)

If you received a request to provide more evidence of eligibility of a title, it means that the evidence you provided in the original submission is insufficient to add the title; if you received a request to resubmit a title with evidence of eligibility
and the title wasn't added even after you complied with the request, it means that our editors thought that the either the title is not eligible to be added or the evidence you provided doesn't support the claim that the film exists or is eligible.
In simpler words: if the titles have not been added, it means that the data you have provided is not enough for us to add them.
A cursory glance at the titles you have attempted to submit shows that these are may be at best, projects that are rumored to exist or that are in very early stages of development, where there's possibly a script or a treatment, not films that have already been shot or that are about to be filmed. Assuming that the former is true, these would have to be added as in-development projects (which can't be done via IMDb.com). You submitted these as films in production, which is not the case yet.
My recommendation would be to wait and try again when these are actually announced, with a director and/or cast and a filming date set in the near future, or with at least more firm data/names attached to them.

people have the employee tag that aren't actually employees... I know I've seen it happen and have seen people publicly on a post say that it happened that way. so how do I know he is an actual employee and not just someone marked as one who isn't? and how do you know that it wasn't meant what I said when it was sent, because that is totally possible as well.

No they don't. No you haven't. Henry C. Is on the official roster of staff that also participate here on this board (which includes IMDb creator Col Needham-who would know who he's hired and who hasn't. https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/deta...
Good luck.

I know what I've seen and what people have said... I'm telling the truth here. you aren't me you don't know what my eyes have seen and read, you have no idea. for all you know I could be telling the truth, which I am, but you can't just automatically assume I'm lying when stuff like that can and has happened. I've heard a saying that goes something to the effect of "Assuming makes an Ass out of you and me"

Users cannot attach proper IMDb logos. If someone has created an avatar that looks like the logo but is not a proper badge, you should report it. It's never happened here so no, you've never seen it. Yes, I'm sure you've heard that saying a lot. I am not assuming you're lying. I assumed, though, you were successfully duped.
This board is monitored regularly by real staff. A post by someone pretending to be staff would quickly be deleted and any improper answer would be corrected by other users or staff.

I never said it was on the IMDB board, I used the term generally, meaning that I had seen it all over getsatsifaction and not on the IMDB board. and it wasn't someone who was pretending to be staff, it was someone who wasn't staff that had been given the employee tag on there profile, they admitted it on a public post to a bunch of people.
