Somehow in entering the data for one film (Bad Day (2015/II)), a duplicate listing appeared (Bad Day (2015/V)). There is only one of this film. How can this be fixed?

Ishtari: Go to the page for Bad Day (2015/V) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6043862/. Click "Edit page".

On the next screen, scroll down to the Title Correction line, fourth from the bottom. On that line, select "Add correction". Click "Continue".

On the next screen, there will be a blank line in which to enter the corrected title. Enter it as:
Bad Day (2015/II)

There will also be an Explanation box. In that box, enter something like "This is a duplicate entry. The same film is already entered into IMDb as Bad Day (2015/II), and so this entry should be merged into that page." Click "Check these updates".

On the next screen, you will get a warning that says, "The new title already exists in IMDb. Are you sure you want to merge this title into Bad Day (2015/II)?" That's what you want, so check the box marked "Warning understood, go ahead anyway." Click "Re-check these updates".

On the next screen, your data should appear with a green background, and you should be able to click "Submit these updates".

Allow a few days for the merge to go through. Good luck!
