A profile contribution was recently submitted for the television series Crashing UPC 883929595952.  The contributor submitted several valid data elements, but also submitted an update to the overview that deleted the existing overview and instead replaced it with just a list of episodes.  A list of episodes is permitted by the rules, but the contributor should not have deleted the remainder of the overview in doing so.  So, I voted no, noting that my only objection was the change to the overview.  The existing overview was proper and should not have been deleted. Nevertheless, the contribution was approved. 

I don't understand this at all, and it's really frustrating that the contribution rules seem to arbitrarily enforced, or not enforced at all as the case may be here. I would think that a no vote would at least prompt whoever it is that determines whether to approve contributions to look at the contribution.

Was there a reason for removal of the overview in the notes? Was the overview from the back cover of the set? While a self written spoiler free overview is allowed by the rules it has been my experience that not everyone realizes this and will contribute and vote for as you have said.

I would just resubmit with the overview and the episode list. Don't remove the episode list as that would be a valid reason to vote no if they wanted to.

I have had cases where DVD Profiler has downloaded an incomplete profile, so when I go to contribute, information is missing on my end, but there in the on-line database. I don't know what causes it, but I have had it happen. Most recently I was working on a double feature for Kill Bill. I simply fixed the title and edition, but when I went to submit it showed me that there were child profiles (Which would have been next on my list of edits). I cancelled the submission, removed and readded it to my collection, then it downloaded the child profiles. I wonder if other metadata can be affected in a similar fashion.
