Data Issues & Policy Discussions

Here is the next installment of my lists of proposed keywords for permanent merger and auto-conversion. I am posting this list for fellow contributors to review first and raise any objections or questions. I will wait at least 28 days before changing this post to a "problem" post and asking IMDb sta

I'd like to see an option to add extra information to a keyword, as it applies to a particular title. For each keyword on a title we'd see the following checklist. We'd check the item that applies. __ (1) person, thing or visible quality (such as nudity) __ (2) person, thing or visible quality (off-

So some users on here (chiefly keyword warrior) spend a lot of time sorting through keywords to isolate redundancies. Takes a lot of effort.

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

​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".

Lately I have been working on fixing the credits in less scripted and more reality programming - such as the real housewives franchise.

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.
