" Please include evidence, or provide a URL" ... how appropriate is this?
How does one provide evidence for something spoken in a film's dialogue?

"We have been unable to verify your contribution." Is not the reason IMDb relies on user submissions is that it would take staff impossibly long to check every movie and every item of use which is relevant? I can see the use of screen grabs to verify certain images in a film, but dialogue? Anyone who has seen the Mike Flanagan series will confirm the piece of dialogue mentioned above (it's quite extensive, and mentions the film title and several actors in it). Why this lack of trust in the probity of contributors?

In this case it seems easy, since there are for example transcripts available.

The degree of trust you meet is partly based on your contribution record.
