IMDb should include allegations of sexual harassment and/or assault in trivia
Viewers have a right to know if we are supporting actors who have a history of sexually predatory behavior. Including everything but this information effectively contributes to and tacitly supports rape culture.

Moreover, moral behaviors have very little to do with the artistic acomplishement of the concerned persons. IMdb tackles only the latter.

Sure, trivia bits like ”was heavily rumored for the lead role of...” can be interesting (if there are solid proof about these rumors), but that’s a bit different issue than accusing someone of a crime. Not all of these rumors are true - even when (sadly) many are.

IMDb is not, and I don't know another movie-base that could be aiming to aggregate such or similar information intentionally or obligatory.
"IMDb should allow users to share information concerning allegations" -- This is correct variant to discuss. Not taking any side of such discussion, I see that both sides may use some existing features, such as URL-linking to online articles.

"He was fired from The Weinstein Company on October 2017 following several allegations of his sexual misconduct that broke out in The New York Times early that same month."
"His and Mia Farrow's 12-year relationship ended in a custody battle over their three children in which she accused him of sexually molesting their daughter Dylan O'Sullivan Farrow, though the judge dismissed the claims because they were not substantiated."
"Fifteen indivduals accused him of sexual abuse, including journalist Heather Unruh (who alleged that Spacey sexually assaulted her son); Norwegian author and former royal family member Ari Behn; filmmaker Tony Montana; actor Roberto Cavazos; Richard Dreyfuss' son Harry; and eight people who worked on House of Cards (2013)."
