Getting started


IMDb is a collaborative site, which means we rely on individuals to provide us with all the content that users can see across both IMDb.com & IMDbPro.

The term "data" refers to information listed on IMDb, if you can see it on the website then it makes up the "data" in Internet Movie Database and can be contributed.

Looking at the title page for Tenet (2020) below - you can see some of the data types which can be contributed:


Examples of data to add

You can submit information across both name  & title  pages such as:

Title icon

and more...

Filmography

Release dates

Quotes

and more...


A full list of what can be contributed to existing pages is available by selecting  Edit page example  at the bottom of either name  & title  pages.

Additionally, users with an IMDbPro membership can also contribute company & contact information to all pages along with headshots to their own claimed name page.

Guidelines


To begin, you'll need to be registered with a free IMDb account before you can submit any updates. 

Also, our aim is to be the most complete and reliable source of movie, TV, and entertainment information on the web. In order to achieve this, we can only accept submissions which are accurate & verifiable at the point of submission. 

If an IMDb editor is unable to verify the information being added is factual, or the data breaches one of the policies listed on this help center, then the request may be rejected.
