Martial Arts Movies
"Martial Arts" should be a genre (I'm pretty sure everyone would back me up on this)

Can you add the number of photos as well as the number of titles with photos to www.imdb.com/stats? (note: the number of people with headshots is already listed on the stats page)

Change attribute "uncredited" to "No Screen Credit".
Hi IMDB community, I have a proposal regarding the attribute “uncredited”, change to “No Screen Credit” or NSC for short. I note the attribute “uncredited” discussion comes up from time to time and for different reasons and I believe this suggested change will also help with those others concerns. M

IMDB, please save your reputation: stop the user rating sabotage
The deliberate, politically motivated sabotage of movies like The Last Jedi & Black Panther is blindingly obvious to all. 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

Updating information (esp. via the app)
When updating info - be it trivia, or whatnot, and your info contains actor's names, or protect info, t you can't include this info the 'old' way; via 'qv' info. Now you must do it with 'links', i.e. ( link=...). If this is being done from one's phone, or tablet, this information isn't easily gleane

These "Known For" headings are the first (and sometimes only) thing seen on someones profile and sho

Export List: add column for Cast
When looking at Exported titles, either from a custom list, or from my Ratings, I often need help remembering what a particular title is. If you could add a column for the top-billed cast, that would be very helpful, even if it were only the top 2 names. 3 names might be even better.

American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace
IMDb, please list cast & credits separately for each new production of American Crime Story. Having the casts & other credits of each show all jumbled together is very annoying. I do not want to sift through all the credits for the O.J. story if I'm looking for info on the Versace story.

Public reviews - Wish the Review Info included their age range and approximate location.
Suggestion for improving usefulness of reviews: Along with the IMDB User's ID, include the age range of the viewer, and their location. For example, I am RWillis, 40-50, Canada. The movies I liked as a teenager are vastly different than the ones I like as a 40-something. I'm sure this is the same fo
