Data Issues & Policy Discussions

Normally the top of any IMDB page has a search bar that looks like thishttps://i.postimg.cc/rpd5nH52/Image2.pngwith a drop-down on the left hand side which allows you to specify where to search (title, episode, celebs [yuk - why not "people"?] etc).But after making a submission, the search bar chang

Some films are classified as belonging to 4 or more genres which I don't have a problem with but I think the relevant information could be better communicated. Genres are listed at the top of a page and again near the middle. The listing on the top of the page is restricted to a maximum of 3 items b

Make option to see who edits titles and how to contact them for imdbpro contributorsBecause lately i'm so tired of fixing shitty titles, i can't do anything else, i just fixing shit, what's the fun of thatSomeone using bots and creating empty titles with episodes and release dates and nothing moreNo

Alphabetic isn't good enough for 'genre' values. I like that people can set multiple values but what was a production meant to be primarily? everyone wants to know that. This evening we went to see "Into the Woods". I knew nothing about this movie except that it was a Disney production -- my wife wa

Any chance of you designating someone to whom profile photos of deceased / pre-1945 actors / actresses may be submitted? I have run across so many Silent film era stars who have no profile foto.

Suppose a person already has a Marriage entry which has a start date but no end date and just the "Present" box ticked (because the marriage is ongoing).If that person dies, you add the end date as being the person's date of death.

As far as I can tell, this is because two catego

Currently the Goofs page edit gives a list of options that doesn't have "incorrectly regarded as goof". So one has to first enter something as a goof, and after it is processed by editing team and to the page for all to see, then he/ she or someone has to mark that as "incorrectly regarded as goof".

I have a list of all the TV shows I want to watch someday. Many of the TV shows on that list are quite short and don't have a lot of episodes. Is there a way to sort the TV shows in a personal list by number of episodes? If not, could this be implemented in the future? I think this could be quite us
