FistyDollars Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 I submitted a BUNCH of removal requests for various duplicate games for NES, SNES and DOS. All of them were approved, however, their entries all remain in the Database. Has anyone else noticed this? I really don't want to re-submit everything...

Belgarath Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Confirmed I requested the removal of a duplicate Awesome golf for Atari Lynx and the removal of Air Warrior for 3DO which doesn't exist for that platform. Both removals were accepted but they're both still visible in the database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Ugh, will review. Sorry guys. Good news is I have all the data so it's almost never a problem where you would have to re-do anything. I'll let you know. It may be a few days though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Alright, I *think* I have this fixed. I have deleted all of the games that were approved for deletion, so we're up to date, and I think I've fixed it going forward. Let me know if anyone is still seeing a problem. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Hi Jason. I'm still having this issue. Some games that were approved for deletion have actually been removed from the database, but others are still in there after being moderated and accepted for removal.

FistyDollars Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 @Jason Carr The problem seems to be cropping up again. There are quite a few games I recently deleted that re-appeared in the database, only without the images that they had. Same issue as before.

Jason Carr Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Yes, thanks @FistyDollars. I am aware of this. I can go back and clean it up again, but I still need to troubleshoot what is causing the issues to begin with. I'll be back to this soon; the last time I tried to fix it I had to add logging so I'd be able to track it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thordelan Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Seems like the problem is still going on http://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/34179 for instance Actually, quite a few Sega Genesis games haven't been deleted properly.

Freestate Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 All the games i deleted from super nintendo database remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FistyDollars Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Yeah I didn't want to say anything for fear of sounding like a nag, but it's totally still an issue. It's especially a problem with Genesis games, where since MegaDrive/Genesis were merged, there's been a LOT of redundant games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestate Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 A bunch of games are already deleted but because of database issue, still remain but without image data, Please if you find a duplicated game with no images is one of them. It's already aproved for deletion don't do again until jason manages the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_me Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Maybe until this is fixed, change the game name/title to "zz_delete_duplicate" or "zz_delete_not_a_game" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
