New Submission Email Format - suggestions for small improvements
I see that from 1 October 2024 the format of the submission-confirmation email has been changed. The new format looks good.
I've just got a couple of suggestions that might make it easier to go to the relevant title/person entry more easily:
- For TV episodes as opposed to films, give the whole series/episode-title/episode-number, rather than only the episode title with no indication of which series it relates to. For example: "Sexton Blake" (1967) {The Find The Lady Affair: Part 1 - The Lady Vanishes (#1.1)} rather than The Find The Lady Affair: Part 1 - The Lady Vanishes. Alternatively you could list it as:
Series: "Sexton Blake" (1967)
Episode: The Find The Lady Affair: Part 1 - The Lady Vanishes
Number: 1.1
ideally with the field values lined up vertically.
- Make the "View Status of this Contribution" link more visually obvious (maybe a button with "IMDB yellow" background) and put a copy of it at the top of the details of the submission as well as at the bottom, so it is not necessary to scroll to the bottom of what may be a long list in order to find the link.
- (This may already have been done) In the old format, corrections or additions to an episode title or number were not listed in the email. Have you added this, together with relevant "has it been actioned yet?" tracking, for the new format? I've not submitted an episode title change since the new format was introduced, so I can't tell.
