The Movie Database Support

On our site's movie and t.v. Overview pages, it's shown partway down the page if there is at least one discussion thread so far created. On our celebrity Overview pages, there's no such indication whether any thread(s) exist.

I don't know if most people here are like me, but, as things currently are, I normally don't have it even occur to me to check whether any discussion(s) has been created for this or that celebrity (since, more so than not, so far nothing yet has been - particularly where actors/actresses of decades ago are concerned).

If it could be shown on celebrity Overview pages, like how it already is on movie and t.v. pages, that one or more discussion has so far been started, that would help generate additional discussion, plus, of course, simply help make people aware that those "out of sight, out of mind" discussions actually are there lurking, ready to be chimed in on.

If there's not the right type of available area on the layout of celebrity Overview pages (because of the filmography list filling much of the screen) to show links with the Subject lines of the three most (if any) recent threads, then at least somewhere showing that 1, 2, 3, or however many, discussions have been created would be helpful, IMO.

I guess that might be nice to have, but probably not a high priority. I don't usually go to a person's page unless I want to post something. When I go there I automatically see whether there are any other posts/threads at the same time I am going to create a thread.

If there are a limited number of people you want to do this for, just create bookmarks for the person's discussion page and save them into a common bookmark folder. Then you can easily check from time to time until posts begin to appear.

I'm not sure a section or area will really be located for this but I have some planned work to add a little number up next to the sub nav item, so you would get a glimpse as to whether there's any discussions that way.
