How can I correct the IMBD profile which has been created by IMDB without my participation, and which shows only a fraction of my work? Celia Montague

Thank you for these 3 pieces of advice. A more complete tv and film c.v. has now appeared, again without any input from me, and now, in addition, and again obviously without my consent, wrong personal details at the head of the page.
I want to delete these personal details: not only are they wrong but I don't want personal details of any kind, true or untrue, published about me here. What can I do? I have tried clicking on Edit page but keep being returned to a page which offers no way out that I can see!!
A less important concern is: the page also announces that I am known for films were relatively unimportant in my body of work. How do I change that announcement so that it headlines films in which I had leading roles?
I would be grateful for some step by step help to show me how to erase not credits but personal information.

So, for example, if your birthdate is correct, IMDb will be unwilling to remove it. On the other hand, I see on your page that you are currently listed as having been married the same year you were born, which is obviously incorrect. You should be able to get that item corrected. I am not sure what has gone wrong in your previous edits, so hopefully someone else will be able to help you with that.

See http://www.imdb.com/help/search?domain=helpdesk_faq&index=1&file=knownfortopfaq and http://www.imdb.com/help/search?domain=helpdesk_faq&index=1&file=knownforcontrols for details.

Thank you very much for your attention to this. I feel totally powerless, and intruded upon. Can you tell me what right Imdb has to publish details of my personal relationships? The whole structure of Imdb seems to me to be menacingly anonymous. There appears to be no access to a live voice to talk to, no person in authority to apply to. I never asked for any details of my life or work to be put onto the internet by them, but incomplete details appeared, and so I made an attempt to correct a very inaccurate summary of my work -- as I say, published without my consent and against my wishes. Now they presume to print personal details. Who has done this? If anyone with a professional interest wants to know about my career for professional purposes they can consult Spotlight, the professional actors' resource, to which I subscribe. I do not ask for any publicity by Imdb. I would like all mention of me by this site/organisation to be erased from the internet. What must I do? Who must I ask? Is there anyone TO ask?
