News Articles on Your Page
When you look at your profile, there is Trending & News on the right-hand side. How do I correct the NEWS article number and links to those stories? Not all news articles are listed.
I've linked the correct number of articles under MISCELLANEOUS links on my profile but want to correct the specific NEWS box instead. How?

Hi gradyacraig -
Please note that the "Trending & News" section on your IMDbPro page only includes the count of News articles, this does not include External Site links.
Currently, you have five news articles tagged to your IMDb page, therefore, the count of "5" is correct.
Cheers!

Hi gradyacraig -
To help clarify, articles displayed under your "News" section are separate from those displaying under your "External Links" section; as such, the News article count only includes what is listed under your "News" section.
If there are articles listed on the IMDb site where your name is mentioned but the article is not listed under your "News" section, then you will need to request that your name be linked to those articles. You will need to locate the news article on IMDb, for example:
https://pro.imdb.com/news/article/ni63315100/
If your name is displayed within the extracted article content on IMDb, we can then link your name and it will display within your "News" section. You are welcome to include those news article links here and our staff can take a look for you.
Hope this helps!

Hi gradyacraig -
In order for our staff to review the news article and tag your name (if applicable), you will need to provide us with the actual News article link on IMDb, for example, https://www.imdb.com/news/niXXXXXXX:
https://www.imdb.com/news/ni63318272
https://www.imdb.com/news/ni63316892
Once you have the list of IMDb article links (not the links within your External Sites section) our staff can then review them for you.
Cheers!

Hi gradyacraig -
Apologies for the delayed response. I can confirm that two of the articles ("Cannes: Malin Akerman" and "Meuller") are currently tagged to your IMDb page, however, the remaining five news articles cannot be tagged to your IMDb page because your name is not displayed within the extracted article we have on IMDb.
So even though your name may be referenced within the full article from the news provider, in order to link a name within a news article, the name must be referenced within the extracted article we display on IMDb.

Hi Michelle,
I would like to differ on this comment of yours:
So even though your name may be referenced within the full article from the news provider, in order to link a name within a news article, the name must be referenced within the extracted article we display on IMDb.
For example (naming only one, there are many other examples): Please see the profile of Luke Prael. The following links of Imdbnews extracts do not have his name but are mentioned only in the full article of the external site. However they are still linked in the IMDB news. How is that possible?
https://pro.imdb.com/news/article/ni62238738/nm8302891?ref_=news_nm
https://pro.imdb.com/news/article/ni62195657/nm8302891?ref_=news_nm
https://pro.imdb.com/news/article/ni62165521/nm8302891?ref_=news_nm

Also one more quick question:
There are many websites like Bollywoodhungama, Entertainment tonight etc which have not linked their articles to Imdbnews since 2018. Why is it so?
