Rating / Reviewing
Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to suggest an idea of limiting rating and reviewing of motion picture on your app. I know that you support the freedom of speech and want to have many ratings and reviews on your app but there are tons of movies and shows that are just underrated or rarely overrate

add "incorrectly regarded as goof" to the first Edit Goofs page list
Currently the Goofs page edit gives a list of options that doesn't have "incorrectly regarded as goof". So one has to first enter something as a goof, and after it is processed by editing team and to the page for all to see, then he/ she or someone has to mark that as "incorrectly regarded as goo
