How to - documentation?

Being new, I looked for documentation on how to do most everything. I was able to edit some information, but how does one import? If a disc is already there, but missing track information does it have to be deleted and imported again from MusicBrainz? If so, how is that done? Does someone else do it? Do I ask to have it done - here? Do I have to wait before I would be able to do these tasks? Or I will never do such tasks?

Adding a new artist click on browse, import new artist.
To add missing albums etc, simply click the blue import button on the artist page and select from there.
Albums with missing tracks etc, need to be deleted and re-imported which can only be done by a moderator, so will need to be requested on the forum.

I imported the wrong item: "https://www.theaudiodb.com/album/2426689-Andrew-Lloyd-Webber-The-Phantom-of-the-Opera%2C-Jesus-Christ-Superstar%2C-Cats%2C-Dont-Cry-for-Me-Argentina-and-Other-Hit-Shows-by-Andrew-Lloyd-Webber".
Can it be removed?
On MusicBrainz, where do I find the release group id? Is it in the URL as [ ed0b1140-fdf8-3fa1-96f9-612139be3e46 ] for an item I am looking at? I do not see a label for release group id on MusicBrainz.

Album deleted.
On Musicbrainz Click the album you want to import, on this page click Details, look for the Permanent link: musicbrainz.org/release-group/******

Ok got the "Permanent Link" is the group release id.
So I enter this in the import album blank [ ed0b1140-fdf8-3fa1-96f9-612139be3e46 ] and get this error:

Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to ezsqlDatabaseez_mysqli::escape() must be of the type string, null given, called in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comadd_album.php on line 167 and defined in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comvendorezsqlezsqllibDatabaseez_mysqli.php:178 Stack trace: #0 C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comadd_album.php(167): ezsqlDatabaseez_mysqli->escape() #1 {main} thrown in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comvendorezsqlezsqllibDatabaseez_mysqli.php on line 178

I tried the whole URL [ https://musicbrainz.org/release/ed0b1140-fdf8-3fa1-96f9-612139be3e46 ]
And got the same error as above.

I'm about ready to forget the whole thing and .........
