[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1275044, member: 18896"] After you've experienced walking into a room and going "ugh, what was I doing/looking-for?", then a lot of things stop being criticism and instead become friendly reminders :whistle: I'd happily make you (or others) a contributor on the GitHub project, so you can edit the master file yourself. Just the whole "with great power comes great responsibility" ordeal then, because if you forget to XML-encode & into & or break functionality in another way and not test/verify then it impacts all IMDb+ users (editing the file in Notepad++ with XML-language verification active helps a lot, but I often edit directly in the GitHub editor). And I've got hundreds of custom edits that will never go into the master file, because I do not deem them community worthy and are more personal preference. It is difficult to please everybody sometimes, and I never got around adding multi-rename support yet for the whole "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" vs. "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" issue that bugs me between UK/USA, let alone different languages.
