Fix invalid UPC-A and EAN-13 barcodes#9
Merged

Conversation
These barcodes failed to pass validation, and have been corrected. Each correction has been verified by either finding pictures of the release that show the barcode, or by verifying the barcode with information available from online retailers. Two releases contain questionable barcodes: "I, Robot (2004)" and "Rain Man (1988)". The barcodes on the packing of both releases have a suffix of "80" appended to the end of the UPC barcode. I cannot find a reason for this, as no relevant 14-digit barcode format exists and the original 12 digit UPC-A code identifies the releases correctly. Therefore I have simply removed the "80" suffix from each barcode.

Thanks for fixing all this! These corrections will go out with the next data deployment (in the next week or so) although I don't think the UPCs show up anywhere on the website currently so there may be no visible UI changes |
