Please add "Listen Free" link to our podcast page
Our podcast is available on Amazon Music and we'd like to add the "Listen Free" link on the title page. I submitted the IMDb contact form, but the reply I got from IMDb staff Charlie says I should submit this as feedback here!! IDK why he said that! Because, as seen in most of the similar

Teaser/Motion Poster Section
IMDb currently doesn't have an option to upload teasers/motion posters, so it compels us to upload teasers to the trailer section itself. So logically, the system considers both teaser and trailers as trailers even though the teaser has less prominence, and the system doesn't consider the keyword

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

Publish or specifying the time for scenes under Parent Guide section
IMDB's "Parents Guide" is a very useful section that I often visit before finalizing on a movie, especially the area "Sex & Nudity" and "Violence & Gore". It ensures if the movie is appropriate for me to watch with my kids and prevents any awkward or embarrassing scenes. Along with this val

Archive Footage/Episode Counts on TV Series Main Pages
Lately I have been working on fixing the credits in less scripted and more reality programming - such as the real housewives franchise.

Director credit on series page
If a series only has one director, display their credit on the main series page like you do with creator credits. Also: display the director and/or creator credits on series in detailed advanced title search results and lists, like you do with director credits on movies.

Intimacy Department Catagory
Hey y'all, Writing to bring up the position of Intimacy Coordinators and how the position fits into the framework of IMDB. As an IC myself, I can speak to the fact that this is a very new position on set, only showing up in the last 4 years or so in Film and TV, but is a burgeoning field, and

Ordering Official Sites
Accidently I wrote Official sites in the wrong order and to fix it I used to 'correct' feature. But wouldn't be better if there was a column just like we use at cast order?

Redundant/illogical keywords to be merged with existing correct keywords.
I am offering a few suggestions about merging two or more keywords together to avoid repetition and redundancy and also giving my reasons.#1. The keywords "bare-breasts" and "breasts" should be merged into simply "breasts" and "bare-breasts" be made entirely redundant. Reason: "Bare" breasts are no

Annoyance of instantaneous contribution receipts
I have started receiving instantaneous receipts from IMDb for each of my contributions. This is very annoying and bothersome and even potentially dangerous. I receive important medical monitoring information in my e-mails. Now, I have to wade through these unnecessary IMDb receipts to get
