I've updated a common name on 15 profiles which are also contributed on May 28 and they are all approved today, so that's how it should be.

So... what are the rest of us doing wrong?

Quoting Nexus the Sixth:

Apparently i am on the ignore list since ive got pending contributions from 5 May and onwards.

You're not alone.

I have one from the fifth awaiting approval (four 'yes' votes).
A chunk for the next week have been approved and released.
Four full cast and crew entries submitted a few days later have been approved, one hasn't (from the 9th), despite 'yes' votes.
A few more over the next few days have been approved, then there's another one from the tenth still waiting approval.
A further five full cast and crew updates have been released, then we have six new-to-database entries on the 18th which have yet to be approved.
Then three more full cast and crew updates for blank profiles that have been released, followed by one (26th) that hasn't.
Then one with full cast and crew that has been approved (four days after submission), followed by several more that haven't.

There's no logic.  Some of the approved ones have no votes, some of the unapproved ones have 'yes' votes.  Some of the new entries have been released, some of them haven't.

I take all my submissions directly from the credits themselves.  Occasionally I'll check a spelling or an actor's name, and in doing so I always cross reference IMDb, Wikipedia, bfi database and afi database to make sure I'm not making a mistake.  I'm a reliable contributor, and most of my contributions are full casts and crew for entries that don't have them.

I just don't understand why some are approved faster than others.

It's only new Profiles that aren't being accepted in a timely manner. They used to be approved, and released, almost immediately.
