Will Podcasting be added to IMDb?

Now that there are solidified, award-winning podcast shows and production teams, will there be a separate category for Podcasts?

To gather credits and Podcast history (Podography) or something.

Breakroom: Podcasts are currently eligible to be added to IMDb. It is just a matter of getting people to submit them to the database. See https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/title-formatting/G56U5ERK7YY47CQB# :

Podcasts (Audio & Video) 
The name formatting of a podcast remains the same as a normal title i.e. The Joe Rogan Experience
If episodic please submit as type Made for TV with the sub-type TV-Series
If stand-alone please submit as type Made for Video
For all, please add the keywords: category-podcast (if episodic, this is only necessary on the parent series, not the episodes)
If audio only then please also add the keyword "audio-only"
A link to somewhere the podcast can be watched or listened to should be submitted in the Miscellaneous Link section, with the description WebsiteName - Full audio, or WebsiteName - Full video, as appropriate.

I hope this helps.

The IMDb policies on podcasts have changed since my original post. See https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/title-formatting/G56U5ERK7YY47CQB# for details. There is now a separate title type for episodic podcast series and they should not be listed as "Made for TV" anymore.
