craigalanp Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Has anyone ever been on this "CIP" with Discogs? I added I Killed The Prom Queen records to the database before they were physically released and I haven't been able to make additional submissions since then. The albums have been released for a while now, and when I attempt to make any changes it says, "You are currently on the Contributor Improvement Program (CIP) and cannot have more than three pending submissions." Any tips on how to get off of this problem would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 A quick search of the help section revealed this https://www.discogs.com/help/doc/contributor-improvement-program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigalanp Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 Reading through the help section was my first course of action. I ended up posting in the forum for help and was told through a PM to make changes to submissions that I can't make changes to. https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/172073?page=91#7031897 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigalanp Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 I was able to get a response back from the Discogs Support. It turns out my submissions need to get votes for being correct/accurate. If anyone here is able to make votes, please help me out on at least one of these three! Being on CIP is horrible and I will do my best to not get back on it! https://www.discogs.com/release/7092354 https://www.discogs.com/release/7092431 https://www.discogs.com/release/7092380 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not allowed to do this. When you have an item, you then submit, simple. What could help these submissions is, you could add actual photos of albums and add more details to the listing - for instance - add the barcode to each, and add the matrix run-out grooves for each (their A and B side matrices). Then ask for another consideration at voting your sub's correct in the Discogs forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
