Help & submit
This is the action page — use it to contribute or correct an entry: fix a field, add a credit, supply a source, claim your studio or work. Stop Motion Database is a community-improved, source-cited record. Anyone can help — you don't need a GitHub account. Suggestions are reviewed against a source before publishing; nothing you send goes live automatically. Looking for the list of open questions we're still researching, without a form to fill in? See the research queue.
Suggest an edit — the fast way
Every film, studio, and person page has a “Suggest an edit” panel at the bottom. It shows the current data as an editable copy — change a field, fix or add credits, or just write what you know. It sends straight from the site. Or send a general note or a new entry here:
Send a suggestion or propose a new entry
Tell us what to add or fix — a missing film, a wrong credit, a source, anything. Optional: a source link, why you know, your name. No account needed.
Help right now: missing film videos
One item pulled from the research queue that you can act on directly, right here. These shorts have no visual yet. Almost every short is on YouTube or Vimeo — find each film's official/public video and send the link (right from the film's page, via “Suggest an edit” → Source URL). Its thumbnail then fills the visuals wall. A person can confirm each in under a minute; that human check is the whole point — please link only the real film, never a same-named or re-uploaded video.
Rights holders, studios & creators
If it's your work, studio, or profile, you can claim it, supply official end-credits, or correct anything. Use the “Suggest an edit” panel on your page and set your relationship to “Studio / rights holder”, or file a formal claim:
Note for the future: contributing solid end-credit data is real work, and we intend to reward it — paid micro-tasks (e.g. transcribing a film's credits) are planned. For now this is volunteer and every verified contribution is credited.
