Policy regarding end years of a tv series
According to a post in this thread (https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/why-is-the-sinner-showing-an-end-year-of-2018), IMDb doesn't add an end year to a tv series if the series is still airing, even if there is no doubt about the end year. I simply don't understand this and therefore ask to alt

"Episodic" sub-type needed for video games that are released like shows (Telltale games, Life is Strange, etc.)
In its current form, IMDb is unable to accurately capture the nature of certain games due to a lack of sub-categories. Most games are released all at once, like a film, in which case the IMDb system is fine. However, certain games (such as those made by Telltale) are released in seasons and episodes

House style for military character names when credits do not give them
Older films, especially B pictures from the 1950s and 60s, often list only the actors' names in the opening titles and do not have a character-and-actor cast list - because they don't have a closing credits sequence other than just a caption "The End".In this situation, IMDB uses character names tha

"An unreleased title should not have credits with 'as' attributes"
I find to be a major inconvenience the fact that we cannot use the "as" attribute at the same time as upgrading the production/development status from "completed" (or less) to "released". The submission interface should treat it as a warning instead of outright rejecting it. (With warnings, the opti
