There are two entries on IMDB that could be easily confused with each other.White Boy - nm0924387White Boy  (aka Boy, White) - nm6878376 There are only three credits between the two entries. They may be separate individuals or the same.(I have just added two soundtrack items to t

Why are the external review links still "nofollow"?

I think it would benefit IMDB contributers a bit more, certainly for those sites who are sending traffic back to IMDB. In all those years I would have expected that you would change this.

Idea for submitting trivia items with option for verification

I recently had a trio of trivia items rejected that I had done some reading on before posting. Thanks to the board here that's been resolved, but it just gave me an idea.

When will IMDB support full Unicode?

Since 2014, the messageboards have supported the full Unicode set, so it obviously isn't that hard. Why doesn't the main site support Unicode? Right now it's still mired in a Western European-centric interface, where all names have to be transliterated to be posted, despite the transliterations bein
