Can it be changed so genres can be added to individual episodes of TV shows?

There's a problem with IMDb posting inappropriate updates of genres to TV shows where some episodes might individually be described as being one genre that the series as a whole isn't, but IMDb lists it as this genre anyway. For example, "Tales from the Crypt" is predominately a horror series, but h

Separate articles from Miscellaneous Sites

On External Sites pages, many of the links listed under Miscellaneous Sites are various other movie sites with profiles for titles. Links to actual articles about a title can seem buried in such a list. It would be cool to have a separate subsection for articles on the same page. This would also be

The trolls even claim credit for their actions, and the IMDB user ratings do not line up with any other gauge of these movies' overall success & public receptions. IMDB, you risk

"Known For" algorithm choices

The algorithm used by IMDb for it's "Known For" choices... SUCKS! I have 35 years in the business and 68 credits to choose from and the algorithm selects "Stepford Wives"? You've gotta be kidding me. These "Known For" headings are the first (and sometimes only) thing seen on someones profile and sho
