Edited original name for an entry I created but it didn't change

Hello Travis
I created an entry for this concert: "The Killers Lollapallooza Brasil" and I've found two problems:
1 - Seconds after created, I edited the original name, it's registered in "changes" but it didn't actually update. I must say that I commited an error in updating because I didn't knew the year was added in the "release" field.
It didn't update but you can cancel my edit.
2 - I can't find it in XBMC. Is it possibly because of this name editing problems? I tried both names.
Thanks!

Hi CLANK,
Do you know the ID of this entry? I can't find it, what was the other title of it?

Hi
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/192216-the-killers-lollapalooza-brasil
Original name: The Killers - Lollapallooza Brasil
Edited: The Killers - Lollapallooza Brasil (2013)
Like I said before according to site rules I think the original is the correct one? Isn't it? Because I added the date in the release.
I also added this edited title as an alternative title.

Looks like I can find it now, which means the API probably can too:
https://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=the+killers+lollapalooza+brasil
Give it another try?

Hi Travis
Now XBMC found it! Thanks. Did i do anything wrong?
One last thing I'd like to ask:
When I edited the original name, why it didn't change? Do you have to manually approve? My edit is listed in the "changes" column. By the way, I'm just asking, I don't want the original name to change anymore.
Really thanks

Nope, as far as I can tell it just needed some extra time to roll out across our search cluster.
I'm betting it did and it was just a cache issue.
Cheers.
