is it possible to add more information to providers, like: homepage and description?
I am responsible for seeking this information and sending it to be added to the database of you guys.

Hi @dhiogoacioli, we don't have that information stored for the watch providers at this time.
I suspect what you're looking for would be related to what I have down here on ticket WEB-207. And if it's not 100% that, it's very related since what that ticket is kind of really about is connecting more company info together.
You can watch and/or follow that ticket for updates.

would solve in parts, but there would be three problems: 1 - not every provider would link to some network; 2 - network has only homepage, not description; (this is easily solved by getting the description metatag found on the homepages); 3 - this suggestion is more than 6 months old, I think it will take a while to come out.
I'll resolve this until next week at the latest. I will not wait. if you want to implement it, you will have the data ready.

Yup, no doubt some of this can be added at some point in the future. Unfortunately though, this is not something currently on the roadmap.
