Add easier support for merging keywords
There needs to be an easy way to merge keywords when there are entries which are basically duplicates. Plenty of mere synonyms such as "marriage-problems", "marital discord" and "marital strife" would be more effective if there was a single entry. Only more specific entries like "marital argument" n

Create individual sub-heading for PRODUCTION SERVICE COMPANIES
Yes, I do work at one but bias and pride aside, I would have thought it would make sense all round to extract the Production Service company (or companies) from the OTHER COMPANIES and create a new heading just for them either immediately above or below DISTRIBUTORS. After all, everyone else listed

Multiple name relationship additions locked at 5 per entry.
When I want to add multiple relations to someone on the IMDB to update their profile, it has a maximum number of 5 that you can do at one time. If I am adding their parents, siblings, children, uncles, aunts and/or grandparents, especially if they have IMDB links, I need to make multiple submissions

Please add Lithuanian symbols so people can spell their names correctly
I have noticed that there aren’t Lithuanian symbols when adding titles or names. This is sad, as in this day and age people should be able to spell their names right and many other websites support symbols from other languages than English. In Lithuanian case, there’s only a few, for example ė (two

The return of the Character pages
I'd like to see the Character pages return, this time SIMPLER. Each Character page can be for one title only. No more trying to link a character through multiple titles. The Character page could describe the character's arc through just the single title. For example: Captain Kirk gets one Character

Suggested improvement to validation for marriage submissions
If a marriage entry has the "present" flag set (ie marriage continues until the present day) and the entry is then modified to add an end date (eg when the person or their spouse has just died), the "present" flag overrides the fact that an explicit date is supplied. and the explicit date is ignored

Video Games should have a featured Metacritic score.
I feel like video games should have a featured Metacritic score in IMDb like movies do. Metacritic is heavily used for video game ratings, so why not add the featured score to games as well?
