Genres/subgenres should be logical

(This is partly from a previous post, but I am afraid that it has been lost or ignored.)Three major problems with the relationship of genes to subgenus, and vice versa:First, If a subgenre/keyword has a genre as an addendum, that specific title should also have that addendum as a genre. This is basi

Production department deserves own section, we are not Miscellaneous Crew!

I know this has been raised before, but with not much response nothing has changed. I have been told that as long as there is enough users to vote on the idea, IMDB will consider the change - so please help me spread the word.Seeing a recent addition of "Script & Continuity Department", I would like

Missing language - Svan

I submitted a documentary that is in the Svan language, which is not in the database. The film is Funeral Chants from the Georgian Caucasus (tt37457026). There are other Georgian films that are in the language, at least partially.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svan_language

Another way of doing genre information

Some films are classified as belonging to 4 or more genres which I don't have a problem with but I think the relevant information could be better communicated. Genres are listed at the top of a page and again near the middle. The listing on the top of the page is restricted to a maximum of 3 items b

Genre needs a priority order setting

profile photos

Any chance of you designating someone to whom profile photos of deceased / pre-1945 actors / actresses may be submitted? I have run across so many Silent film era stars who have no profile foto. They're long gone and will never have a profile foto per your current Pro-account only submission policy,

Make sure reviews are reviews again (minimum of 50 words instead of 50 characters)

Idea: Make sure reviews are reviews again. Current situation: Recently, IMDb has decided that a user review should at least have 50 characters. I feel it is impossible to write a review in - let's say - 60 or 70 characters. However, because IMDb allows this, a lot of useful, insightful observations
