Make it easier to add quotes

Your form for adding quotes is unnecessarily confusing. 1) You ask "How many people are in the quote?"

Can we make update changes to IMDB contribution system to prevent mislabeled credit vandalism?

To the IMDB staff, I know it has been very hectic for the staff, and I've found loopholes on the IMDB contribution that allowed some pranksters to mislabel company credits and the credits names for Directors, Producers, Writers, Cast, Crew Members like what has been happening to the Pororo the Pengu

Suggestion: Consider blacklisting "gratuitous" in Parents Guide items.

As outlined in the "Parents Guide" submission guide, [...] the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly. Please only describe the facts of relevant scenes [...] It seems to me that whether a given occurrence of nudity, gore, et cetera is gratuitous or not is necessaril
