Wow! IMDb accepts audiobooks now?
I don't see anything about them in the submissions guide. What are the rules? Just that they need to be listed as videos and have the keyword "audiobook"?
Hi @Ozzy ,
I'll try to be really specific to avoid confusion:
I see Audiobooks listed as a title type at https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/title-formatting/G56U5ERK7YY47CQB#.
However, it's not listed at https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/title-formatting/G56U5ERK7YY47CQB#, though Podcasts are listed, with the closest style.
@Michelle's instructions are very helpful, but no formatting example is present under "Tips for Changing title type submissions."
I'm not comfortable with changing the title to "(V)," that seems like it would add to the confusion. I will add the keyword "audio-book" if it's not there. The most helpful thing might be to call it:
"Doctor Who: Dark Eyes" (2012) (Audiobook Series)
But I don't see any documentation that that is supported. I think I'll try submitting an update as
"Doctor Who: Dark Eyes" (2012)
I'm not sure how it's current title (without double quotation marking) is classified as a TV series, which is episodic by definition I think.
I'll also submit an idea post to add "Title name" (yyyy) (Audiobook Series as a title format that maps to title type Audiobook series.
My interest in this comes from the experience of finding the IMDB title and thinking "Oooh, there's a Doctor Who TV series I missed??" I got a little excited.
