Consider a system-wide keyword merge.
The keyword "big foot" should probably be merged with "bigfoot", which is the correct spelling (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dicti... and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigfoot). If "big foot" described a person with a large foot that's one thing, but all 17 instances refer to the legendary Sasqua

Primary image suggestion.
Darrell Larson (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0488970/) deserves an image. He's a veteran stage and screen actor. I could have sworn he had one at one time and now it's blank.

Changing the IMDB Development listing criteria: We'd like to hear your opinion!
I’m a producer who’s been having difficulty getting my development titles approved for listing on IMDB Pro. They suggested I reach out to fellow my IMDBers to see what you thought in terms of adjusting the development title listing approval criteria. A key impediment is the requirement that a develo

could the "Tracking Submission" button become standard (please)?
It seems that more and more of my submissions have been ignored, or partially ignored, recently. I'm not whining (not all of my stuff is gold!), but it would help me to know why this is happening, and unless there is a "Tracking Submission" button, I can't find any information about the items I have

Naming people in photographs
It is almost useless to list names of people in photographs because there is no means of knowing who in the photograph has that name. Surely it is common sense to list the names in the order from left to right of the people in the photo?! For example, in the attached screenshot, who is who? NO corre

Changing layout or word spacing after seeing the changes you submit.
It would be nice to be able to edit a change after submitting it, because afterwards you see it and it says awaiting approval, it's formatted and the spacing is all different.

Greetings! Issues, both regarding the "Miscellaneous Crew" and "Known For" sections need to be addressed. While I appreciate the many improvements made to this site, over the years and recently, there remains a glaring issue that needs to be addressed. Currently the "Known For" and "Miscellaneous Cr

We should be allowed to say why we think a review is inappropriate!
We are only allowed to mark off boxes on whether a review should be taken down, based on four criteria, without providing any input in the form of written feedback on the review. I feel that it is terrible that we can't say anything about how we feel a certain way. I tried to flag a review that had

contribution email needs Title (or Name) in Subject line
At the moment, the subject line for an email confirming a contribution looks like this: IMDb update receipt #180422-161454-071502It would be nicer if it said IMDb update receipt #180422-161454-071502 Dixie Days (1930) That way I can more easily find a contribution I want to check on without having t
