Sounds like you are trying to hold the database hostage, make changes or I won't play ball with you. Really a childish way to look at it. Additionally, if there are other listeners in your county that care about what they are hearing, someone will figure it out and submit it. The layout of most county database listings I've seen make perfect sense, but perhaps you are too lazy to scroll down and find the info below what's on top. Lastly, while you may work in the radio shop that maintain the repeater are you authorized to release their frequency information? Most radio shops I've had dealings with discourage or prohibit the release of the information. Just asking!
Do you have any specific examples of info you submitted that was overlooked or ignored? Looking at your submission history, I see 20 submissions processed in 2021 with only one rejected, which was at your own request.
If we're having a honest, open dialog here regarding submissions, I must point out that some of the data you've recently submitted is extremely vague. In some cases you've submitted multiple simplex frequencies with only a PL/DPL, but no actual description of what each channel is for. Many admins would challenge data like that as being incomplete, and rightly so. Frankly, I'm surprised that so much of what you've submitted has made it into the database without a lot of scrutiny.
I would suggest reading over the guidelines the database admins follow as pertains to the inclusion/exclusion of data, which can all be found in the official Database Administrator Handbook in the wiki.
Pay particular attention to sections 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 (included and excluded data), as well as 6.2.3, which states that school (including universities and colleges) are to be listed on the main county page.

I am not trying to hold the database hostage, I am just trying to make sure that all the info I submit is worth my time to submit, not trying to sound bad, but it has happened to me, as listed.
Many customers use dual capacity direct or simple business frequencies and are simply using channel 1 as main ops, I list channels as they are programmed in the radios.
Everything that is listed on FCC database regarding businesses and organizations is fair game according to the boss. I am not trying to cause a fuss, I also enjoy sharing info, that's why I do it. All I was interested in was how a county could be re-organized. our school district has 100+ channels, and I would be interested in collapsible sub-groups or something of another nature, I'm not that lazy, but thanks for assuming.
I looked at the handbook and did see the example of Harris county and saw that schools go in the main page.
Every DMR frequency I submit, I include the TG, TS, and CC. I cannot say that everyone submits that into the DB. Looking at
Bay Co FL, there are 11 frequencies missing the Slot or Talk group, not going to work well in some scanners.
This was one of my submissions, minus the info that actually went through. Submission 234174
This information was pulled from a working radio.

But otherwise, when I will get a chance I will submit the school data, So all can listen.
I apologize for not looking at the Database Administrator Handbook Live Version, but since I am not a database admin, I don't think I have ever looked at it. And yes, I am prepared for the next comments about my submission saying "well, they aren't listed licensed" well, They are confirmed used, in a working radio, and were established long before I was working for a radio shop. And I know of many listings that are not licensed in the DB. Not sure what to tell you.
again, I am not trying to cause a fuss, or be called lazy, childish, or assumed to be taking info hostage.
