In Progress

Broken literature link - Help Section in edit form.

1. Go to a name page, edit page, Articles in the Media- add 1 - continue, click "?" = "Action Articles in the Media Any sections you are currently working on have been temporarily hidden to display this help text. They will reappear when you leave this page by clicking the button below. This section is intended for print media; online publications should instead be sent to the external links section. (Please note that this section is independent of the "news articles" link; those articles come only from our various news suppliers, and cannot be added to by contributors.) An article is something that appears in a magazine or journal and does not fit the definition of an interview or pictorial, while still focusing primarily on a person and not, say, a specific film. (Articles focusing on particular films/programs should instead go to the literature list.)" The word "literature" is a link = https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/literature/GDC3LPWDUPQJBLQC but ends up in a 404 page. Can this be fixed? 2. Is it only possible to add info about printed articles on name pages, and not printed articles on Movie/series pages? Description says " (Articles focusing on particular films/programs should instead go to the literature list.)" So you would think data about a printed article containing info about a film should have a place to go ?

Hi kristin- Thank you for reporting! As per point #1, I've forwarded this information to the appropriate team for further investigation (Ref Ticket #V1860271200). We'll reply once we receive further information. As per #2, correct only on name pages. If there are articles of printed publications about the particular films or series and these happen to be digitalize, for example, this will have to be submitted as links on the Links to Other Sites section of title pages. Cheers!

Kristin: For additional background, the Literature section for titles was shut down in 2017. If you would like to support having such a section restored in the future, please go to the thread at https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/restoring-the-literature-section-for-title-pages/611026ce0188e87bcfa3862e and vote in favor of the idea.
