Hey @marco - we absolutely respect our contributors and especially the users here on Sprinklr who are some of the most passionate users of IMDb.

 

You're right that sometimes posts get lost in the shuffle, or that are misinterpreted or the comments inside a thread are pretty long and in our attempts to solve as many threads as possible for our users we miss some of the points.

 

Also in most cases once a thread is solved it's not revisited. I try to keep an eye on comments on my old threads but there's hundreds at this point so again we do miss those.

 

I know I'm guilty of all of the above, and if that's ever happened to your posts or comments I do apologise.

 

But on to the matter at hand - let's talk problems. Can you reply to me here with every unsolved problem you've got and I'll look at all of them.

 

I can't promise solutions for them all, especially the "five new genres" discussed in your posts as that's miles above my level, but I will do my damndest to get back on track.

I'll take the rest of this month as well as May off from contributing, maybe that'll save up some time to actually respond to contributors.

(and yes, I know there are several teams with all of them having their own work, but signals must be send every now and again I think)

Factual shows are specifically shows like current affairs, quiz shows, game shows, talent shows, fly-on-the-wall shows, and documentaries where you learn something. 

IMDb already has the genres News, Talk-show, Game Show, Documentary and Reality-TV. I think these are all more specific than the Factual genre you propose so I fail to see why it would be a good idea to have Factual as a genre. (that said, when it comes to the medium tv, the genre Soap Opera is very much needed, but that's a different issue)

IMO, it seems that the rest of your post might be better dealt with if you would create a separate post for each item.

Is there an "educational" genre? if not, then maybe there ought to be.

@jeorj_euler I believe this has been proposed over a decado ago, in the same period when the infamous five new genres were chosen and defined. I believe it was agreed upon it would be a good genre, but I'm not sure.
