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

"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

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

Pasting in Links, Why only One at a Time?

Sometime there should be an update to putting in Miscellaneous Links and Official Site Links all in at once rather than one at a time, could save having to keep going back and fourth with finding more. If there was a way to see 2 pages at the same time.

Trailers Page

IMDb administrators could/should pay attention to the trailers/video pages, because there are trailers there that should be uploaded automatically to the IMDb page. EG http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078346/externalsites - Superman (1978) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096895/externalsites - Batman (1989

TV Special keyword should be added automatically from title form selection

Hi! I suggest that the keyword "tv-special" should be added automatically when you have chosen the (type Made for TV and) subtype TV special in the Adding a New Title form. Otherwise this separated selection seems quite redundant from the subtype TV movie since this keyword is (seemingly) the only t
