I would guess that voters didn't like it. But that is just a guess.

I had the same thing happen recently with two contributions at the same time.  They each had 8 or 10 yes votes, and a third VERY similar contribution (cast and crew additions by episode were made to 3 seasons of the same TV series) was released no problem.  The other two were just plain GONE.  I re-submitted them both, and this time they sailed through no problem.

If you see a decline then an approve (or the reverse) it's because the screener made a mistake then went back and changed it.


Which begs me to ask,, do these screeners have all 296,879 DVD's at their fingertips to manually check the contributions???  or what?? Like what exactly do they use to decide their approval or disapproval ??  DVD's /  Internet /  membership at Netflix???

Dano, I also saw a submission vanish from my submission list.  I assume it was declined because it really should have been declined even if it wasn't declined.

But you didn't answer the question .. again:

How do the screeners screen look at the contributions?  Physically or mentally ..

I'm told that they have stopped using the Ghost Whisperer because he couldn't quote a source for anything. They are currently interviewing an idiot savant.

Ouch

Keep in mind that we have really been laying down the source hammer. I have declined a rather large number of new DVDs in addition to changes to existing because of lack of sources. Please include sources in all new DVDs in the notes. And, please do what you can to make the notes in English. 4 years of Spanish in high school doesnt get me too far

A reason would be really helpful. The first declines I had included it so I knew how to improve, but unexplained ones are a tougher case. Just starting out on this contribution thing

We are required to post votes when we Vote No trying to explain why, all you have to do is follow your Contributions and see what voters are telling you. And remember it is not based on the number of yes votes, it only talkes ONE No vote with a valid reason to dump a Contribution.
