1. Find the “Correct Subtitles” Option
On the subtitle page, look for the “Correct subtitles” link. If you’re the uploader, you might also see an “Edit” button. This allows you to make updates directly.
2. Update Incorrect Language
If the subtitle is tagged with the wrong language, you can change it to the correct one.
3. Correct the IMDb ID
If the subtitle is linked to the wrong movie or TV show, copy the correct IMDb URL and paste it in the designated field. Example: Change the ID from one movie to another by using the correct IMDb link (e.g., from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0030337/ to http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040109/).
4. Update the Release Name
You can add or correct the release name of the subtitle to ensure it matches the specific version of the movie or TV show (e.g., Arch.of.Triumph.1948.720p.BluRay.FLAC1.0.x264-DON).
5. Add Comments
In the comments section, you can provide a description of the file or give credit to the original author. These comments will be visible to other users.
6. Upload a Corrected Version
If you’ve made improvements to the subtitle, click “(update)” to upload the corrected file. This is only available if you’re the original uploader or if an admin grants permission. This allows you to update without needing to re-upload the file as a new submission.
