When submitting cast members I noticed that when one selects from the popup a name that is "known for" being an actress the gender auto-switches from male to female, which is great.

Remove the "1 more credit" link for directors/writers on film pages

When a movie has 3 or more directors/writers, there is a link to full credits after the first 2, saying "x more credit(s)", but it would seem to make more sense if this would begin at 4 instead of 3 (so "2 more credits" or more), because if there is only 1 more credit, you might as well just show th

"Car 54 Where Are You" Frederick O'Neal image needs replacement

I have been watching episodes of "Car 54 Where Are You" and found it to be one of the very few shows from the 60's to have black actors. When I as a white 10 year watched it in 1961 I had no idea how far ahead of the field this wacky comedy was.Nipsey Russell, Ossie Davis, Mel Stewart and Frede

Corrections to existing series credits that should have had episodic credits

On many occasions I've tried to correct a credit that is in the wrong department by deleting the current credit and creating a new identical credit in the proper department, and it usually works fine.
