Please update and change Categories (Camera & Electric)
Camera & Electrical should NOT be in the same category. They are Different Unions, completely different jobs, classifications, responsibilities and qualifications around the world. It's like having Acting, Hair and Make up in the same category. Actually Actors work closer with hair and make up than

Plot summary formatting restrictions incompatible with certain types of content
I wish to update the episode listings of "Friday Night Videos" with episode information. Given the format of this show, the episode information essentially breaks down to a list of music videos. The formatting of "plot summary" converts new lines to spaces, turning a list into a long string of text,
