How/where does one submit corrections to the Title and Trivia for "Outsider"
Season 1, Episode 4 Shown as: " Que Viene el Coco," 26 Jan. 2020?

I have submitted a correction from my iPhone 3 times and they have been rejected. So, I logged onto IMDb on my laptop, and the directions given are to find the "Edit" button, and there is no such "Edit" to select. 

The correct name for the Episode should be "Que Viene el Cuco", not Coco.  It is typed correctly in the subtitles of the show, but IMDb title is incorrect, and so is the Trivia.  I have lived in Mexico for over 16 years, moved there as a child. I  know about the "Latin American" Boogeyman that the Spanish people sing about, tell their children about, threaten their children if they don't behave, .... "el Cuco" will come take them away.  It's one wrong letter, should be "u" not "o."

How do I influence IMDb to show they know what they're talking about? There must be some Spanish speaking people that work there that can verify what I'm telling them. 

Would someone please help me?

Thank you,

The series is produced by HBO, I don't speak Spanish, and don't know anything about Spanish folklore, but on the official site the title is written "Que Viene el Coco"

Plus, IMDb uses the title provided at the opening credits or at the ending credits of the show, the Spanish subtitles aren't sufficient proofs to change the title.

There is no misspelling

We use the original title of a movie/show in its original language as it appears on screen in the opening credits.
If the title in the opening credits is "Que Viene el Cuco" than you could argue with IMDb. Otherwise, the title is spelled correctly.

I give up trying to help the IMDb industry, especially with people like you defending their lack of consistency, accuracy, correctness, spellings, this and that and they can do whatever they want to do or say,  That's what I've learned from this experience. I will not ever pursue giving advice, ask questions nor "bother" the likes of this crazy industry.  I'll just watch the shows, and when I see "crap" in the Trivia or Titles or comments, I'll just file it in the "they don't care" Piles.  

It's not you, its what you've pointed out and let me be aware of how messed up this all is.   --D

I also Found in Wikipedia: "Cuco refers to:  Cuco (folklore), a ghost-monster in folklore"  (In my years of living in Mexico and living in the Latin American culture, el Coco is not used. In the English subtitles, It is typed correctly, as "el Cuco" they would know.)

So... my question How do I go about helping IMDb correct the misspellings? I have tried to use a form that their instructions read for one to use, but it does not "send" the input I suggest. So how/where do I help them?
