Can you offer some clarification on the status policy for the Community Forum threads?
Is there a page on IMDb that defines the statuses for Community Forum questions. If so, can you point me to it? I'm asking because I've posted a few questions on the Community Forum recently that haven't been fully answered. The statuses that were determined by IMDb staff have been designa

episode title only reflected on edit pages
I added a title text to this episode 2 days ago: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5773674/ It was actually approved within a few minutes because I can see it when I press "Edit page" button but it's never reflected on the title page and episode list for 2 days. I added titles to other episodes too at t

Declined Goof additions
230520-040345-868000 I'm not sure where IMDb team members come from that approve or decline entries. I'm also not sure if you have access to the line above. I put a good deal of effort into adding content that is accurate. I have street experience in law enforcement and am retired with 43 years o

Actors' roles not showing up in chronological order anymore
Roles are split into Upcoming and Previous. The Upcoming section is showing older roles that are not in the future. This is happening on most of the actors' pages I've viewed. The only ones where it wasn't happening was when the actor didn't have any upcoming roles or only had 1 upcoming role.
