Can I Request That a Special Is Locked So It Can't Be Removed?

Hi,

I don't know if this is something you do, but I want to ask -- I added a special for "The Blacklist." It's the season 4 special "Behind The Blacklist": http://www.tvmaze.com/episodes/930828/the-blacklist-s04-special-behind-the-blacklist Sometimes there are issues with specials (like whether it's a special, whether it qualifies to be listed at all) and I want to ask if this one can be locked so it won't be removed. You can see it here: http://www.globaltv.com/theblacklist/video/episode/behind-the-blacklist/video.html?v=765007427603 it played on Global TV on September 13, 2016. This is the Canadian broadcaster of "The Blacklist." My concern is that if someone wasn't aware of this special and couldn't find it on NBC, that person might think it's one of the "Behind the Blacklist" specials that NBC aired in prior years and ask that it be removed. But it's a new special. That's clear from the blurb and also from the script of the special itself and also a title on the special near the beginning. This special is definitely listed correctly. It's a season 4 special. So is it possible to lock it or something so it can't be removed?


Thanks

It's not possible to do this, but since only Trusted Contributors and higher are able to delete episodes it should be pretty rare for an episode to be incorrectly deleted. If it actually becomes a problem, you can request for us to create a note in the show's editor wiki, which will be presented to each user trying to edit that show.
