Can someone please add a series, I'm not fighting with the submission form that's designed to be impossible to fill in.
Source: Crime+Investigation UK https://share.google/aagvvHfZapbRVWZ3UI am watching Cold Case UK. It's not listed on here. Your submission forms are very obviously designed to make it impossible to add anything contributors didn't personally work on, and shows that weren't made in the US, eg. the res

Cast/Crew Updates Show Up On IMDB Pro But Not IMDB

It is also not updated to post-production. However, when going to view it on IMDB Pro, that info is seen on that page. How can I ge

Question regarding attribute: credit only
I update a lot of news programs. Often a reporter is credited but doesn't appear. With the new list of attributes there is no longer this option. 'Credited, but did not work on this title' is not appropriate. Do we now not care if they appear or not? Should I just list them as being in the program?

Change overview order?
On the website for IMDb Pro when I am on the Overview everything looks great, but I noticed on the app it shows a "Clients" list first, then "Credits" and so on. I am a Manager so do have some clients listed, but my primary work is as a Producer so I would much prefer to see my Credits listed first.

Web-series name got shortened for no reason
I've just submitted a Panamanian web-series "Low Poly Shorts" the other day and it was approved but shortened to just "Low Poly". The only logical reason I can think of is that either a person or automated script just deletes "Shorts" from web-series pages, but logically this is a bit embarrassing s

Item #251005-013314-631000 - declined correction without specific reason.
The reason for declining states to "Please review our submission guidelines." The applicable IMDb Guidelines are stated within the correction (i.e., text is copied from Section B, 1st and 8th bullets, and Section C, "Plot holes"), so it doesn't help to tell me to look in the guidelines. Please provi
