Can Stage Productions (plays) released as videos get some standardization in naming.
posted by Theli93STAFFMOD on jūlijs 11, 2020 at 6:34 PM
Since it contravenes TMDb content guidelines to create collections for stage companies (plays) that regularly produce videos of their productions*, can there be some type of standard naming convention employed; at least for everything by common Stage Company productions that is consistent across their own releases?
For example, Stratford Festival has been producing such videos since 1984, but the naming of such videos is inconsistent. I.E.:
- Play Title - Stratford Festival of Canada
- Play Title (Stratford Festival)
- Stratford Festival: Play Title
and very likely some with no such identification whatsoever.
Or should such productions instead be converted to "series" with each "season" representing everything during a stage production year?
Thank you for your consideration.
*as evidenced by recent DM from TMDb Support dated 20-07-08, regarding deletion of "National Theatre Live Collection"

Hi, while I can see how adding the festival name as part of the title can be very useful, are those really part of the original titles? What is a typical on screen title, for example? Or how are they listed on their website?
No, these belong in the movie section set to video:true.
Edit: I should also add that users are often mixing up the stage director with the director (of the broadcast).
