IMDB as a source?

Please see Misplaced Pages talk:Identifying reliable sources#IMDB as a source? for a discussion about establishing a policy, guideline or central discussion on IMDB. Maurreen (talk) 03:40, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

IMDb Event?

The IMDb has tons of events listed , so should these be made to work in the template? Sure would come in handy for awards programs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.194.66.47 (talk) 22:16, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

IMDb Season?

There are numerous articles on specific seasons of various TV shows, but most if not all have an external link that points to the show entry for the entire series. Worthwhile or is there another way to link to a season? --SCalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 16:45, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

I am proposing here

…for discussion, @Maurreen:@NapoliRoma:, the removal of just the one template that allows easy linking to IMDB biographies. Reasoning: These are inappropriate personal, self-published information sources, rather than valid, WP:VERIFY-approved, independent, referreed/edited, and formally published sources of biographical information. We need to make the poorest manners of WP writing less easy to accomplish, not easier. Cheers. Le Prof 50.129.227.141 (talk) 14:08, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Why imdbname?

Why do we allow ] as an interwiki link. Doesn't this just encourage the use of IMDb as an inappropriate external link? WikiDan61ReadMe!! 12:33, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
