I don't think IMDb really gives a damn and I'm tired of resubmitting corrections only to have them ignored. I value my time too much.

Thank you. That makes sense. I don't live and breathe IMDb, so I missed that. Also, I don't know the significance of "avoid moving the credit to the 'Self' category" as a strategy.
Idea: How about numbering the paragraphs in the Guide and providing #x links in the Guide. That would make it a lot easier for your overworked folks to point the way to well intentioned but misguided people like me. :-)

Mark,
I like your idea. I posted your idea in a separate thread (Number the Paragraphs in the Updates Guide) and gave you credit.
Legal and technical documents frequently have numbered paragraph and/or lines. For that matter, The Bible numbers chapters and verses. This makes is easier to reference a specific paragraph.
IMDb's updates guide encodes IMDb's policies for updating information on IMDb. It functions as a quasi legal document.
Since this suggestion affects multiple staff members and contributors, it would be very useful to have a discussion in this thread about the pros and cons of implementing this idea, and the most productive method for implementing this idea.
