Trivia Subsections
The Trivia listings on popular movies usually fill up. Like the Goofs listings, could there be sections introduced to Trivia such as "Industry Notes", "Items which refer to actors only, not the movie", "Coincidences", and "Failed Auditions", etc., so that we can skip those items?

Suggested enhancement to form validation for marriages (trim off any invisible leading/trailing spaces in "year" field)
I copied-and-pasted some marriage years from an obituary, and inadvertently included a leading space (for one marriage) and a trailing space (for another marriage). This generated the "red" error "The year 2010 must have 4 digits and should not be 0". I suggest that the code which validates dates fo

Videos Order in a Preferential Manner
Hi IMDb, I'd like to make a suggestion of improvement: a possibility to replace / re-upload videos without losing the link, or a definitive way to rearrange the order of how they appear on the site.

Titles in data fields don't necessarily match the title for the original release, user's region, or user's language.

This struck me as a slightly odd but minor issue so I ignored i

All other cast credits for this title are unordered so far.
Is this warning even necessary? Someone posts a few random unordered credits for a TV episode and when I go to complete the cast, I have to click this box for 30+ credits. Absolutely ridiculous. Can we get rid of this warning or make it a single global warning per update. No wonder most people never

criterion collection filter
when you're in a list you can filter the list to see if it's on certain streaming services. the only one not there is the criterion channel and I'd love to have that one.
