Is there any ways to correct misinformation?

I am trying out this place for size and see no edit information button. It seems to me that you get your information from amazon what gets its information from imdb but in cases of some TV on DVD releass there is a problem such as the Doctor Who releases: www.listal.com/viewproduct/dvds/108319#

This DVD cast listings features several actors that do not appear on the disc such as William Hartnell and Tom Baker, actually very few seem to appear in this listing.

This Doctor Who I do not own release has the wrong photo added but I see no way of removal, just a way to add:

www.listal.com/viewproduct/dvds/160682

Also, since you are one with amazon, it might be nice to add in the other amazon sites for reference, most particularly France wherein a Tex Avery Collection exists that I am most fond of, even though he deserves better. The other amazon sites: www.amazon.fr , www.amazon.co.jp , www.joyo.com (China's amazon) , www.amazon.de

Oh, you should add a more distinctive icon for games like a video game controller.

Perhaps there could one day be a way to search all seperate databases at once?

I forgot to say tht this actor problem is throwing off my actor listing count, although I have only put about a tenth of my DVD collection in.

One more thing, it seems that the when viewing the forums the search groups icon is above, that is on top of some links. I see a comic book caption thing and Li,the start of a word I do not know. When looking through my listings the search field is obscured by the Display field and when searching through new additions to my listings it is obscured by the Select source data field and after I add an item to the collection it is blocked by something like this "Music were added
All Music you selected have been added to your owned." I do notknow if this is common or if it is just on my computer working through Mozilla Firefox.

The actor casting list, I mentioned already in another post, and Tom mentioned he has plans to address this by editable cast listing for entries. On movies such as Lord of Rings, a lot of the top actors, such as Viggo Mortensen, simply are not listed because IMDB sorts them partially alphabetically.

As for photos, currently you can only delete photos you upload yourself, but he plans on adding code to allow certain members to moderate photo uploads and delete any wrong or innapropriate photo.

As for adding more amazon sources, good suggestion, although i think Tom is trying to distance listal from amazon altogether, as their database entries are full of duplicates and multiple spellings of same authors and such, and its causing a lot of headaches for some of us on here.

p.s. I might be wrong/mistaken on some of those, i'm just trying to pass along some of the info/rumors i've read on these forums in past few weeks.

by the way,welcome to this site, and thanks for your suggestions. cheers.

Just out of interest...

Other than Amazon, what sources of good, clean product data are there? I know of musicbrainz.org for CD releases, and there's IMDB for movies (even if owned by Amazon...), library thing for books...

Do we know of any others? Or efforts to data cleanse existing sources of information?

www.bcdb.com has good information for animation, generally better than imdb when dealing with short subject theatricals. Also tv.com could be considered better than imdb at some things but oh how I loathe them and miss tvtome.

allmusic.com

www.muze.com (lot of online stores use them)

I am wondering if it would be possible to convert the listal amazon music db to musicbrainz.org

There are other good databases on the internet like tv.com but those above are ones that actually provide or sell data.
