Editing Images - How to change stills to 'behind the scenes'

When editing images I have noticed some say 'Still of ------ in ------', some say '---- in ----' and some say '----- behind the scenes of ------' how do you change the categories of these images? One example is that this image http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4035560704/nm3389576?ref_=nmmi_mi_all_bts_10

Any plans to allow adult images (with strict rules)?

Hello, I worked and am still working on various movies and series that could be categorized as softcore and others as explicit erotica/adult movies. So I'm not talking here about close-up/hardcore/no-story-needed porn videos (even though I also work on some of those). At the moment, getting images a

Allow series-level release dates

Ever since the introduction of episode pages it has not been possible to directly add a release date to the main page of a TV series. I would like this to change: - It would let users easily find a list of the earliest release dates in the place they are used to finding them for other kinds of title

Non-binary actors on IMDB

Hello, I think IMDB should honour non-binary acting people with a relevant tag instead of actor/actress. Maybe another name, like "acting person" or something reflecting the fact that they're non-binary. As an example please see the profile of Asia Kate Dillon tagged as "actress" while they are iden

Credits not on screen but listed online

Many modern television programmes don't have on-screen credits and instead say something like "For full credits, go to our website", with the full credits being listed on the official website. It seems misleading to have to credit everyone (including producers, directors, editors, etc.) as uncredite

Why doesn’t IMDB add plays to its listings?

Yes I know its a site made for movies but there is no site that lists plays in any database format is there? Movie Stars do plays too don’t they?

Allow Em Dash in Plot Outlines and Summaries

Please allow for the special character of em dash (—) in plot outline and summary sections. Currently, these are automatically replaced with the grammatically inappropriate regular dash (-), or worse yet, manually transliterated as two dashes (--). The em dash is an appropriate character for plot ou

Could you prevent new users from making reviews?

One of many issues are fake user reviews. Recently I have went to read Thor Ragnarok reviews prior to seeing the movie. What I found out was that 90% of the reviews have 10/10 and almost all (maybe besides 1-2) are 2 day old accounts. Some of those accounts are from the same people, as they share re

More video game settings

As video games become more and more relevant in entertainment, it would be very helpful if they saw increased importance in IMDb. In particular, we can currently only choose from movie genres, which don't always comply with video game genres. Also, in distribution types we can choose from things suc
