[QUOTE="fforde, post: 941988, member: 52082"] That change happened over four years ago (about one month after Moving Pictures was launched). As I stated above, the purpose of the field is to assist the importer and ideally the auto-approval logic. We switched from votes to search result order in the IMDb script [I]in 2008[/I], and we made this change because it produced better results. This field wasn't even made available to the skin until about a year ago. In IMDb+ if you want to populate Popularity with votes that's fine I can see how that could be useful for some people. But like I said just be aware this is not the intended meaning of the field so do not expect these values to be consistent across other scrapers. [/QUOTE]
