Hello,

So I tried to edit my review on the Last Jedi recently, and after the edit it just vanished. I checked my contribution status (Contribution #171222-100931-434104), and it says "Approved". It is also worth mentioning that afterwards I successfully posted and, subsequently, edited a review on Stand Up Guys without any delay or problem.

The initial reason for edit was the sudden disappearance of all paragraph breaks, as described in this thread. https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/review-formatting-gone I kind of hoped that after the edit the review wouldn't just remain, but retain its upvotes, which were about 400. Please advise.

Hah tell me about it. Here's hoping that this will be over when IMDb finishes implementing its updates or whatever it is it's doing. And my review gets restored in all its glory, maybe.

I reckon you're alluding to profanity then, which I used censored with asterisks, like a lot of people here do. Might I inquire then, why was it deleted without any notice or explanation, while I could have removed the swearing while keeping the rest of the text intact? Not to mention lack of any  acknowledging of the problem with random disappearance of  the review's paragraph breaks.
