Forum:IMDB as a source in MW3 articles

IMDB should not be allowed as a source in Modern Warfare 3 articles, because it is not reputable and it is edited by random people just like any wiki. As long as you're registered, you can add virtually any information to the database and it will be approved by their administrators. In the past, I have knowingly put false information on the MW3 IMDB page as a little experiment. Just to see if it would go through. It always does.

I once added an obscure actor named Jeffrey Pierce to the cast list and no one questioned it for around two weeks, until I took it down myself. If you don't believe me, try it for yourself. You can add any ridiculous bit of information to the summary, the cast or crew and it will go through. Yet there are still a few articles in MW3 portal that have IMDB as their only source (Eddie Decker Raymond, Brian Lynx Ross. IMO, we should be more discerning when it comes to sources.
