That is why I said…
Emphasis on if. 
All episodes with more than a few hundreds interactions will not auto-delete. This is a complaint of other users, but it is to make sure that any shows with any major interactions is not auto-deleted. We don’t want to delete views data without thought. This means duplicates often happen and have to be manually removed with a ticket at https://support.trakt.tv/. Most episodes are manually deleted and the interactions are reviewed on a show to show basis.
There was a bug and many shows were getting duplicated or merged before they were ready. So right now, you’re seeing the reminants of that bug. When you come across these, open a ticket so we can fix them.
Same goes for a show that’s ready to transition. I appreciate you all want to be able to help us, but in order to make sure that users’ interactions and data loss is minimal, we’re keeping the reins tight on who can migrate shows. So please continue to open a support ticket with links for shows that are ready to transition.

Some definitely do get stuck. Please open a support ticket with a link to the show for us to investigate.
The comparison page no longer loads some things such as “My 100% match”(I checked when I had shows that were a 100%) or individual shows when you click on the TMDB Comparison button on a show’s page.
It does this across browsers.

I have the same problem with some shows but you can still go to the https://trakt.tv/transition/tmdb/ page and use the shows title as a filter to search for it and it will appear there.

It appears that “some” it’s actually a lot! Have you pinpointed the issue ?

Does Trakt no longer scrape TVDB? New shows being added to TVDB no longer appear on trakt some time later. Is it just direct refreshes on show pages now?
Shows have always had to be manually imported in to Trakt. (Maybe someone else did that step for you.). See how to add a show.
If a show’s data source is TVDB, it will continue to update with TVDB data until the show or movie is migrated to TMDB.
I recently added a couple shows on TVDB and they appeared on trakt a day later without importing.
I’m not understanding your issue then I guess.
This no longer happens. Just wondering why.
Because since we’re switching to TMDB, we want all new shows to have TMDB as their main data source.
Check out the related blog post.
The comparison page is now loading individual shows when you click on the TMDB Comparison button on a show’s page. The 100% section is still glitchy though.
This is probably because certain parts/sections of database/website update and/or cache at different times throughout the process. The comparison pages are only updated when the show page is updated.
Ideally, there isn’t much in the 100% section as they’re being migrated regularly.
Does anyone know why this Travis person on the TMDB admin team seems to be the only person able to do edits like merging seasons?
Because he’s the admin. He’s the sole admin.
Moderatos don’t have that functionality.

Shows like Fate/stay night UBW have been waiting on him for months so he really should extend those privileges.
Apologies if this has been asked already but has it been decided how specials that are on TVDB but not TMDB will be handled? Will they be deleted?
Hey guys,
i’ve made a lot of updates on Family Matters - Trakt.tv on TMDB. I can’t migrated to TMDB due to the ordering of episode (i get that). I was wondering if an update of the actors on TMDB will still find its way to Trakt even if the source is still TVDB?
Yes, we only use TMDB for actor info, even if the show’s main data source is TVDB.
