Welcome to IMFDB

Before you do any editing please take the time to read the Rules, Standards and Principles. This is a very important document that explains how this website is setup as well as telling you what is and isn't allowed. If it is determined by an admin that you have not read these rules, your account will be suspended. Continued non-compliance may result in a permanent ban. After that you should also read the IMFDB Screencapping Guide and the IMFDB Style Guide to familiarize yourself with the image and formatting requirements for pages you create.

There are a number of pages that desperately need your help. You can find these Incomplete pages here.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here but make sure to sign your post by typing --~~~~.

Finally, IMFDB has a forum set up here that is only available to registered members. There is lots of good stuff to see there. If you would like to join the forum, please post HERE and an account will be created for you.

Now, HAPPY EDITING! bunni (talk) 12:22, 9 September 2018 (EDT)

File names

Please use more specific names for the screenshots. "Vlcsnap-2020-05-23-01h30m09s508.jpg" is unacceptable. Here you can find our rules for screenshots. Thanks. --Greg-Z (talk) 03:13, 23 May 2020 (EDT)

Got it thanks Paradox (talk) 16:26, 11 June 2020 (EDT)

AHS - Season 5

Please pay attention to the American Horror Story - Season 5 page. It is in very poor condition, and cannot exist for long. If there is only one gun in the whole season, and it is in hands of some unnamed minor character, then the page doesn't fit the rules. --Greg-Z (talk) 04:52, 11 December 2020 (EST)

Ah apologies, I'll have a look through the rules now. What is there to do (if anything) in this case of there only being 1 firearm or so, does it just not exist on the database then? Paradox (talk) 09:46, 23 February 2021 (EST)

Image file updates

When you update an image, it takes a few hours for the Cloudflare servers to update its preview. You can get instant results on a page if you change the resolution from 600 to 601px, for example.--AgentGumby (talk) 21:41, 20 July 2021 (EDT)

That explains things thanks Paradox (talk) 00:20, 21 July 2021 (EDT)

Boss Level

Are you going to add missing items such as photos of weapons samples used in movie, and links to their pages? We can do this, but in fact it must be your job, so which is not entirely correct. --Slon95 (talk) 13:45, 30 July 2021 (EDT)

The issue is I'm not great at identifying a lot of guns, especially down to the specific model or something sometimes, so I just do what I can and leave the rest to more knowledgable people. Paradox (talk) 13:50, 30 July 2021 (EDT)
