IMDb should update its policy on individual genre/popularity data for episodes of anthology series

To clarify, when I say "anthology series", I am not speaking of shows like True Detective, Black Mirror, or The Twilight Zone, where the episodes are connected by similar themes and tend to conform to the same style and genre.

Contribution numbers

Is there a way to see how many exactly you created titles, episodes, plots, plot summaries and etc? Since it's counted it should be a way. Because from rewards you not really can see it, it's not really specific because it's in thousands or more.

Why not tell us that a review has been declined?

At the weekend, I watched Scoop about Prince Andrew's interview with Emily Maitlis. It was declined. Why, I have no idea and blandly informing us declinees that 'it does not meet "submission guidelines" ' is more than pointless: how are we to know that boundary we crossed so that we can edit our rev

Creating a audiodrama category

Audiobooks have just a narrator on it, an audio drama have SFX's, Music score and voice actors envolved, so... The idea is creating this new category to distinguish a audiobook from a audio drama.

Attribution of mini-bios

When the new software-generated mini-biographies were instituted in late November, I suggested that they should receive some kind of credit along the lines of "-IMDb Mini Biography By: IMDb software - automatically generated" with a link in the signature to a FAQ page that explains that these biogra

Release dates should be added to embedded videos

Whenever I try to sort videos by release date, they always come back as unknown (example: Nicola Coughlan’s page shown below). When a video is added to a name or title page, either the day it got added or the day the video was publicly released should be attached to the video. If you look at the Bri

Explanation Box for Images

I feel more often these days, I have images declined due to misinterpretation, sure it's good the system flags poor quality images or ones with 'overlaid controls' for checking by an actual human, but if that human has no clue what they looking at or cannot tell if it's a still image or a selfie pho

I know nudity is sometimes included with rape scenes, but rape is a crime of violence and putting it under the sex tab is a little... Difficult to swallow. Maybe putting rape in the violence category would be better? Any nudity in the rape, of course, belongs in the nudity section but the scene that
