I never (never at all) get confirmation that my reviews have been published. They appear in the "My activity" area but don't show up by looking at the movie details, then User Reviews.

It should be irivlin - (My name's Ian Rivlin) butt I have a suspicion that there's another account for me. I log in with my ordinary email and just put the password in for irivlin...

My latest was Summer of Rockets -. I put it in this morning and since I've never received a confirmation that it's been accepted, I never have found out how long they take to get accepted.

A little older. A week ago or older and the exact date. Not a fresh one. Also IMDb never sends approvals.
But you can find out the status of approvals or denials here

I checked this or and they all have declined in red with a number 1 under the "declined".
Is there anyone I can contact to find out why they are declining my reviews?

THIS IS MY REVIEW OF "FRENCHMAN'S FARM".
REGARDS
IAN
I assumed this was going to be an amateurish movie but it was very good, professional, week written and very entertaining. Had it been given the Hollywood (ugh!) treatment, it works have been more polished but would have suffered immensely. Watch this film. You'll be glad you did. If you want to see another great Australian 80s film, see Malcolm with Colin Friels. PS, in "Frenchmans Farm", the ghost is played by Phil Brock - the brother of Peter Brock, the late, great, racing driver.Surprisingly good.

It is poorly formatted.
It has grammatical errors.
It has misspelled words.
It makes reference to another title without a connection to the title in question.

This is repaired and submittable.

This is the part that does not have any connection to the review of the title.

Well, I thank you for taking the trouble to point these things out.
IMDB seem to let some atrocious reviews through and why they're censoring every single one of mine is intriguing.
I know it sounds paranoid but I have a suspicion that they wouldn't approve any of my reviews.
I won't be writing any more reviews for IMDB - obviously there's no point in wasting my time.
Thank you again for helping out - it was kind of you.
Ian
