IMDb Redesigns Parents Guide

Hi @shano0059,

Thanks for flagging this issue.

We were aware that the new page format lost the MPA certifcate number. We are currently working to resolve this, and will update this thread once we have an update.

Cheers!

@shano0059​ This issue was fixed in the update last week. Thanks again for the problem report.

@nightcoaster​ Please see the above reply from @Ozzy — this is a known issue and we are working on a fix.  Sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime. 

@nightcoaster​ This issue was fixed in the update last week. Thanks again for the problem report. 

@JosephIngham2003 Thanks for your feedback. There has been no intentional change to the certificate attributes, we should still be displaying what is contributed and store in our systems Could you please provide some examples where you are seeing this, so that I can investigate? Thanks

Hi, Yes

Go onto the site for ANY physical page across IMDB where something has a tag denoting that something was ‘cut’ or passed in an, ‘edited version’ and this problem persists into all information throughout

However I will link a few visual examples below such as:

Infinity Pool (2023):

Original Attribute:

Canada: R (Alberta), Canada: 18A (Alberta) (edited version), Canada: R (British Columbia), Canada: 18A (British Columbia) (edited version)

Now:

@Domanic

Bigil (2019)

Original:

Singapore: PG13 (edited version)

United Kingdom: 12A (cut)

United Kingdom: 15 (uncut version)

Now:

These are NOT isolated incidents, this is the case anywhere on site where something has previously been listed as cut or edited it is now noted as a ‘re-release’ which is inaccurate. In addition to this, previous display of information (via attributes) is also formatted in less clear and concise manner throughout too

Another example, this was originally laid out in this (taken from the Inbetweeners Movie - 2011, problem applicable throughout the site / site-wide) format:

Original display (as)

Netherlands: 12 (original rating, withdrawn), Netherlands: 14 (2024, re-rating)

Now:

Here are a few examples of a problem / issue persistent throughout the site. Hope this can be of help.

Hi, thanks for providing me with examples, I now understand what you mean. I will raise this with the appropriate team and reply here when I have an answer.  

We are tracking this in ticket ref #D170831924

@JosephIngham2003​ this issue has now be resolved. Thanks again for reporting it. Do let us know if you experience any other issues.

@Dominic​ 

Hi thanks for your response and for fixing the issue with regard to cuts and edited versions (reflected through attributes), this issue has now been resolved although there are still some issues with formatting of re-ratings as I mentioned before

Some are in full upper-case display (for example this attribute taken from The Substance (2024) )

Others out of order with how they were added, for example before this - from Poor Things (2023) - which originally read as both ‘original rating, withdrawn’ […] and ‘2024, re-rating’ is now formatted like this:

All were formally lower case and formatted in a fashion which was clearer and more grammatically accurate (This therefore may also be something worth looking into, as with the previous one this is also an issue which persists, across all relevant IMDB pages on the site)

All the best

Joseph

Hi, thanks again for pointing this out. There were related issues here. From you previous explanation I understood the first but overlooked the second. I have raise this for the relevant team now. (Tracking #D178754419)

Alright cool

Thanks

The capitalisation issue is now fixed, however attributes under the certification section are still misplaced (out of their original order), example - the original listing stated ‘original rating, cut’ or ‘original rating, withdrawn’ or likewise ‘1976, re-rating, uncut version’ / ‘1985, re-rating, uncut version’ (for example), are now listed like this (ie. out of order):

Examples taken from Scream VI (2023) & Rebel Without A Cause (1955), but applicable across IMDB. With this issue fixed all should be resolved, I’m sorry to keep bringing issues to your forefront but I thank you for your continued help, as a contributor it is much appreciated

All the best

Joseph
