If a content provider is

I was looking at the FAQ section for Photo guidelines. There doesn't seem to be anything listed regarding the following issues.

Increase amount of certifications in dropdown menu

When adding age certifications for films, the site only allows for five certifications to be added via the drop down menu.

IMDb should include allegations of sexual harassment and/or assault in trivia

Please give Fargo, American Horror Story and True Detective Season-Specific home pages.
