The catalog guidelines state: "Unreleased items are those for which there

I have attached proof of the existence of this set. At least one actual physical
copy of the set exists.

I'm curious why this catalog request was moved from the Catalog Request
topic to the Catalog topic.

Set 2019-1 was listed in the Unreleased section of the BrickLink catalog before
I made the request. I provided evidence that the set existed in the form of
a picture of an actual physical set. The set was then correctly moved out of
the Unreleased section and into the catalog. My request was marked as completed.

My catalog request, which was correctly submitted and properly handled, was later
moved from a catalog request into the Catalog topic for no apparent reason.
I have returned the request to the correct topic and would like it changed back
to completed.

If we mark a catalog request as completed, the forum message will be purged after
three years, which means the image will be deleted. To keep the forum message
with the image for future reference, the request must stay "open". Due
to this, we move forum requests that include valuable information to the general
catalog topic (so they don't show up in the queue of open requests anymore),
instead of marking them as completed.

I have moved this thread back to the catalog topic. Please consider it as completed.

Thank you for the explanation! I understand now. I don't care that much
about catalog credits (maybe a little), but these message movements rob contributors
of official credit for their work.

Sounds like another workaround instead of resources being devoted to getting
the website functioning properly. Not your fault, of course.
