I have a pending entry for 1-2-Switch, but any time I try to contribute something like promo art, ad blurbs, etc., I'm directed to the entry for Switch.

It seems to have something to do with the URL aliases getting mixed up somehow, but I don't know how that could have happened in the first place.

I fixed it. It was, as you deduced, the duplicate URL alias--in this case, between the Switch console and the game Switch.

Most things are working now, but here's what now comes up when I try to add promo art:

"The game you are trying to view is either no longer in our database, or possibly an error occured. Please try using the quick search to locate the game you are looking for."

When I click through to the contribute promo art page, it loads up correctly. When exactly do you see this error message?

That's when I was seeing it, but it's working now.

Ahaha, Mobygames has a problem with games whose names are the same as platform names.
