This appears to still be a bit of a problem, was just browsing the Blu-rays in the "Add by Title" section and there are still profiles being contributed to the UK region that should not be and thought wouldn't it be good if there was a "Report to Invelos" button instead of having to download the profile(s) and then contribute them for removal

Yes please!
Can you make this a "Feature Request"?
My last attempt to remove a german profile from the US-location ended up with the overview "SCREENERS PLEASE DELETE", instead of a deleted profile.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Not sure what the best idea is here, we know we have plenty of bad profiles, and I suspect there are more than we oculd possibly imagine. Sometimes when i get curious i wil run across a copy of Film X, which does have several profiles, yet there is one Profile that has not been touched in YEARS, always makes me wonder about the validity of these when i see them, and usually we only have a record of a single Contributor, which is also curious, but I hesitate to remove them because it may be the only user in Kurdistan, for example.

But it is an ongoing burr under my saddle.

That would be great!  The bad thing about these often ill-maintained profiles (read: often filled with IMDb-mined data) is that they do impact the CLT results we all have to work with. So a quick and easy method to flag these for removal would be very welcome.

Just opened the Add DVD dialog, all regions, all media, all localities and substring-searched for "delete"
14 Profile, only one legit! 
Invelos/Ken/Geri/Screeners could you please put those other 13 profiles out of their misery?
