Hi everyone,
We are thrilled to announce we have published a new Help hub for IMDb fans, IMDbPro members and Data Contributors. This hub, available at https://help.imdb.com, replaces the help content previously residing on http://www.imdb.com/help/, http://pro.imdb.com/help/ and https://contribute.imdb.com/updates/guide/ and provides streamlined access to the most common customer queries, organized in intuitive themes, with improved navigation and mobile-optimized design. It includes completely new search functionality across IMDbPro, fan and contribution sections. With this update, IMDbPro help content which was previously available only to logged-in IMDbPro members is now available to logged out users and non-members.
The new help site is one of the projects under the umbrella of software upgrades our founder, Col, wrote about here: https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/upcoming-changes-to-several-imdb-features-du6man1opd5q0
We hope the new hub helps you make the most of your IMDb experience and solve questions you have about our features and services.
We will continue to work on improving our help content, adding more images where this helps to communicate more effectively.
Please feel free to reply on this thread with any feedback or any issues you encounter. We appreciate all your help and dedication to our site.

Hi Peter, thanks for these suggestions.
We will discuss with the data vetting team, to see if we can re-organize some things based on your suggestions.
Would it help if there was a page like an A-Z index of all the data submissions guides?

Regarding old help article redirects that ACT_1 pointed out above:
We have redirected a finite list of the most popular help links from the old sites (e.g. http://www.imdb.com/help/?adding/, http://www.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?photosremovephoto, http://www.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?addphoto, http://www.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?getsatisfaction, http://pro.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?youraccountcancel ) - as well as ALL data submission guides.
In the process of creating the new help site, we have removed a lot of outdated and redundant content and consolidated many articles, to provide better quality of help articles.
We have also made the tough choice not too redirect all the remaining help articles.
We realize this means that some of your bookmarked help links will now be redirected to the help hub main landing pages, rather than the specific location of the new article. The same applies for some links in GetSatisfaction posts - which means people will have to look through the hub or do a search to find the specific information.
We apologize for this inconvenience, which should lessen in time as bookmarks get updated and the new links are posted on new GetSatisfaction threads.

If only you spent as much time fixing problems we bring up, rather than spending time kicking them into the long grass, we wouldn't need to bring them up.

The page 'Companies data' appears in the Submission guides section, but appears to be a version of the old page about Special Effects Companies. If you want a page about company data in general instead of a specific page about effects companies, at least rewrite the text and include references to the other company lists (production companies, distributors, miscellaneous).

Where do we find the new "processing times" page?
On pages where users can add a review (example: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt7360186/reviews-enter?ref_=tt_ur_urv), there's a link to the guidelines (well, actually five) that leads to this page: https://help.imdb.com/imdb?commentsguidelines. I think it would be better if it would link to this page: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/user-review-guidelines/GABTWSNLDNFLPRRH?ref_=help...#. Can you change this please?
Also, this page: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/user-review-guidelines/GABTWSNLDNFLPRRH?ref_=help...# opens with the maximum number of words for a review, then goes on to the average number of words and for the minimum, it suddenly talks about lines instead of words. I think it would be more consistent to also name a minimum number of words for a review. Also, lines is more vague than words because depending on the device a user uses, the number of lines differs.

Hi Marco,
I've passed this onto the correct team to help with redirecting the "Guidelines" links to the correct article. I'll let you know when this is updated.
We appreciate your feedback regarding this. I've tested this out and when reviewing on a mobile device, you'll need to switch to the "Desktop version". Viewing on the "Desktop Version" will match the same format of the Desktop site, so it won't change the number of words/lines required, so the reviews written through a mobile device won't be shorter than those written on a desktop or laptop.

@IMDb staff:
The Lists FAQ for "How can I move list items without drag and drop?"
is horrible advice. Here's what's wrong:
Instead, after entering the new position number, I would advise:
'Click "SAVE LIST ORDER" and the page will refresh with the new order.'
If the user wants to exit, they can find the Done button on their own (or just leave Edit mode).
The Lists FAQ for "How can I move list items without drag and drop?"
is horrible advice. Here's what's wrong:
On the list you want to reorder, click the 3 vertical dots and select "Edit" from the menu. Once the page loads, replace the position numbers of those items in the desired orderand select "Done" and then select "Save" when the pop up window is displayed.
For example, to move an item that is currently at #5 in the list order to #1, replace the number 5 with the number 1.While the directions are "accurate", they send you OUT of list Edit mode. For people who want to change multiple titles, but want to do them one (or a few) at a time, this is a lot of extra time wasted. You provided a better mechanism; you should refer to it.Click "Done" at the top of the screen, then "Save". The page will refresh with the new order.

The page
https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/social/check-ins-faqs/GG59ELYW45FMC7J3?ref_=helpsect_cons_5_1#
needs work.
First sentence has a grammatical error ("Check-ins are a feature" has mismatched plural/singular).
Under How do I check-in?
On the desktop version, I would not describe the Share link as being in the upper right of the page. I'd say it's to the right and slightly above the title. The upper right of the page has the facebook/twitter/instagram icons to follow IMDb.
You can also add a title to Check-ins by hovering over the Add to Watchlist icon, waiting for the dropdown list of lists...
Under How Do I Access my List of Check-ins?
It's not on the Your Lists page any more.
I found it on Your Activity, or by clicking the double right-arrow in the Add to Watchlist dropdown.
Being on the Yours Lists page is state again elsewhere.
Under How do I reorder my list?
It says you can't. But you can now. You also have the option to make them private, which contradicts an earlier statement on the page.
Under How do I get my list to show up in one of the tagged sections, like "Horror"?
I don't know what a tagged section is. Is this something we lost on Dec 6?
There may be other problems; I got tired of reading it. I went there to learn what Check-ins were. Seems like it's just another list, but one you assign to every account. <shrug>

I don't see a grammatical error there as both "check-ins" and "are" are plurals. The fact that it ends with a singular, feature, is not a grammatical error. Like, "Bees are an insect." You wouldn't say "Check-ins are a features".
bderoes, Champion
@Adrian
I would say Check-ins is a feature, and bees are insects, or a bee is an insect, but not what you wrote.
But it's entirely possible that I'm being (not bee-ing) old-fashioned. I can't find an online grammar checker that objects to your bee sentence. But it makes me wince.
Check-ins, in this context, is the name of a list, a singular thing. It is a feature of the IMDb site.
If the sentence meant the collection of titles on the list, the plural noun would be apt. E.g., Check-ins are titles you want to share...
It's really not critical. The inaccurate How-to's and Where-to's are more important (but still not critical in the grand scheme of things.)
BTW, I might say "bricks are a construction material." I don't want to think about why I find that different than bees. Covered in bees. Ahhhhhh. (that was a small scream)
And doesn't this exchange go inside out if we talk about British grammar instead?

Check-ins (which is plural) is (which is singular) a feature would be grammatically incorrect.

Teletubbies was a TV show.
Teletubbies (seemingly plural, but actually a name of a thing) was (singular) a TV show (also singular).
BTW, back on the help page, the opening question was
What are check-ins?
They are a feature?
If it's correct, then blech on technical correctness.
Covered in bees.

Well, the Teletubbies are just as much a team of anthropomorphic anomalies as Teletubbies is a show. So, it is a matter of context. Mismatches in singular and plural forms are not always considered grammatical errors.
Note: I'm yet not entirely sure what, in detail, a Teletubbie (or a Teletubby) is :P
(Also, maybe no member of the Teletubbies is ever referred to in singular form outside of pronouns or by name.)

There are some dead links in some of the help pages because some of the company guide pages have apparently been removed, specifically the links for Production Companies and Sales Agents.
Look for instance at the links in the Submission guide overview or in the Miscellaneous companies page.
The pages may have been consolidated into the Companies data page, but this page also has the dead links.

When adding a too short mini-bio for someone, you get a red warning stating: "Mini-bio is too short.
Your mini-bio is not long enough - the minimum length for mini-bios is 50 words. Please see the guidelines." But if you go to the guide (https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/names-biographical-data/biographical-data-guidelines/GMT9...), it doesn't say anything about the minimum length. Can you add this requirement to the guide please?

If you click on Plot Outlines here: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/contribution-information/submission-guides-a-z/GWBAHK9SAM... you get taken to the Title FAQ page (https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/title-faqs/GERVRQ3SYG8FTJEG?ref_=helpms_helpart_in...#). Can you change this so it links to https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/plots/G56STCKTK7ESG7CP#summaries?ref_=helpms_helpa...?

I found that when I clicked the blue question mark in the update form to access the Title Correction guidelines, the first three links to other help pages were old links which were redirected to the main help page.
This is despite the fact that the Title Correction guide here has been updated to include current links.
One more thing, in the line, "General title formatting rules (how to distinguish between TV titles, videogames, movies, etc.) are here," the currently linked page is actually called Submitting a Video Game. I guess the title formatting rules are actually in the Title Formatting page, which is already linked in the preceding line.

Hey Peter,
Thanks for calling these problems out.
I've updated the in contribution help for Title Corrections now, the links have also been slightly changed for the title formatting rules to send you to the same title formatting page.
Cheers!
