Monthly Festivals problem

I've noticed most monthly festivals that are listed on the events page have submission inconsistencies, since the form only allows to put the year of the event. This provokes that submissions sometimes put the month of the event on the "Award name", sometimes in the "Category name" and most of the t

Filming Locations for TV Shows

Since many tv shows are filmed at the same locations for many episodes, it would be very convenient to have the “copy from previous episodes” option when adding filming locations for tv episodes.

Modify restrictions on marketing credits

Existing rule: There are certain types of credits that we do not list unless they are specifically credited on-screen: these include work on marketing elements of a title (work on key art, trailers etc.), or on non-theatrical versions (e.g. DVD authoring, supplemental materials, captioning etc.)

Highlighted Review - banded

When you see the single highlighted review, it is far too individualistic to be useful. What would be better as a visitor would be to have eg three band rating ranges - 1-3, 4-7 & 8-10 - (or similar eg 1-3, 4-5, 6-7, 8-10) and show a top review for each of these bands, so that you are presented

JUSTICE FOR PRODUCTION OFFICE

Hi there! I think it's high time a PRODUCTION OFFICE section is added as part of the crew. Anyone who has worked on a film will back me up on this - there is no production without the production office. These are the people that organise and orchestrate the whole show. If a production is going smoot

Explain the reason of submition rejected

Hi, As many others, I wish to know what failed when a submition was rejected. The sentence "check our guidelines" may be vague and for some people, the detailed feedback would be a learning instead of a frustration that would cause again, and again, and again to submit the same mistake. I suggest

Written by “one sole person” (in alphabetical order). STOP this nonsense.

Don’t know about you, but I, for one, am sick and tired of seeing the attribute “in alphabetical order,” in the writing credits of movies that have one sole writer. One random example: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15255876/fullcredits/ Writing Credits (in alphabetical order) John Patton F

Production department deserves own section, we are not Miscellaneous Crew!

I know this has been raised before, but with not much response nothing has changed. I have been told that as long as there is enough users to vote on the idea, IMDB will consider the change - so please help me spread the word.Seeing a recent addition of "Script & Continuity Department", I would

Ellen Page (and others)

Ok, fine. Someone wants to change this and that and be known as a new name. I get it. That is a conversation for another place. My issue is this: My copy of Juno has the credit listed as Ellen Page.  IMDb changed the actor's name to Elliot Page but did not leave a 'credited as' for any of
