Many of those women are not "chocolate"... Why call an article "Beautiful Chocolate/Brown/Dark-skinned Queens!" and have 1/3 of the women pictured who are not even NEAR chocolate or dark-skinned in completion? Some of those women don't even look African American (or scientifically, "Negroid") - although that isn't saying they aren't. Its not insulting to categorize and recognize different skin tones within the Black race - but it is insulting to lump them all together as if you could care less about the difference. Basically we have Dark-skinned, Brown-skin (ye we call it that), and Light-skinned. Dark is chocolate, Brown is Caramel, Light is Blonde-wood... Recognize the difference and fix your article!

Which article are you referring to?

IMDb usually just link to articles, they do not write them themselves, so your criticism is probably better suited to be posted at the site that hosts the article than at IMDb's help site.

This is not an "article" on IMDB, it is a user-created list:

http://www.imdb.com/list/mAaC_ASWvkM/

If you have comments for the list then you can leave a message in the Facebook comments section at the bottom of the list and/or contact the user directly:

Some chocolate is white. Just sayin'...

Also, do you have a link to what you're talking about? I would guess the person who wrote whatever you're talking about would have pretty slim odds of seeing your comment here. Are you talking about a user's list? If so, you could leave a comment on his/her list.

You're saying it's insulting to lump them together but want to classifying them differently??? Doesn't make any sense...why not write your own opinion instead of giving someone flack for voicing his/hers?

Except that individual is almost certainly not reading this forum - it is for answering technical questions, so most IMDB users won't use it unless they have a problem. If you actually want to let them know what you think - then you'll need to contact them directly (through the comments or via PM).
