Movie Change API

Hello,
I have some basic questions about how information gets updated in the tmdb database by the community of contributors:
- When users update movie details for a particular movie, does it reflect in the API instantly (in real-time) or does it pass some sort of content approval process first?
- If there's an approval process, how long do change take to get approved? and what are the time intervals that tmdb is updated and reflected in api calls (eg. hourly, daily, weekly, etc.)?
- On average, how many individual movies per day are updated across tmdb?

Hi Simon,
There's no content approval process but there is a cache on the API. So depending on when the data was cached, you will have to wait up to 8 hours for the item to be updated.
Looks like on average, there's ~1300 movies edited every day. You can see on the leaderboard how many edits are done every day.
Cheers.
