Hi, Simon Finney. You're trying to modify a filmography, yes? What do you mean when you state that the system does not respond? You're supposed to select "Delete" (in place of the default value "Keep:") in the drop-down selection to the left of a filmography item, click the "Check these updates »" button, provide an explanation in the text area field corresponding to the item to be deleted, and then click the "Re-check these updates »" button and eventually the "Submit these updates" button, after getting past any warning or rejection messages. As for adding a reference to a title, you can supply into the form field the part of the page's URL that contains the page's "tconst" value (for example, the "tt0000001" part of "https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0000001"), and the system should recognize the proper reference.

Dear Jeorj, thank you for the response. In reply:
With regard to removing an inaccurate entry I have selected delete on numerous previous occasions , had no further warnings, clicked submit and ......... nothing changes. That’s what I mean by the system not responding.
With regard to adding the credit for Formula 51, I take on board the input of a section of the URL but I fail to comprehend why the title does not come up in the options listed. This to me would be a more intelligent option.
Cheers,
Simon

In that case, what are the 18-digit reference numbers of the pertinent submissions?

Title deletions aren't done through 18-digit reference numbers. They are done through a help desk form. Did the help desk respond as to why they didn't delete the title?

Perhaps but he does specifically state "I am trying to remove a title" which sounds like he is trying to delete a title.

Simon Finney, could you please post a screen shot of the particular IMDb interface that is not living up to your expectations? It is not all that clear what you're complaining about.
