| | Posted: | | | | The other day I uploaded a profile for My So-Called Life: The Complete Series NS six child profiles. After I did so, I realized that I had some minor errors in the cast list that should be corrected. I made the corrections to my local profile, clicked on Contribute to do so. When I realized that I would have to replace ALL my changes, not just the recent corrections, because the original contribution had not been accepted/released, I decided to wait and do it at a later time. So, I hit CANCEL to stop the contribution process. Now the contribution has disappeared from my list of contributions.
What happened? When I hit CANCEL to leave the Contribution screen, did this cause my original contribution to be withdrawn? It doesn't show at all now.
Has this happened to anyone else before? Will I have to contribute the whole profile again? Only one person had voted on it before I tried to fix it. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

| | Posted: | | | | It's also a nice way of temporary withdrawing a pending contribution if you want to adjust your changes before recontributing.  | | | Martin Zuidervliet

| | Posted: | | | | Thanks, guys. I didn't understand that. I thought I could just cancel out of the upload without affecting my original contribution.
I'll resubmit the parent profile tonight.
The next time I find myself in this situation, I'll just recopy my notes from the original submission, check all the appropriate boxes and hit SUBMIT instead of CANCEL. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

| | Posted: | | | | I've done that myself once or twice, by accident and it kinda sucks, but like you, I just copy my original notes and check off items and Submit. | | | We're on a mission from God.
