PLease add for Malaysia

Nowadays Italy does not have a well-defined (TV) content rating system as written in the Wikipedia guide, there is the dot system and the label system. According to Wikipedia and summarizing:

  1. Green Dot = T
  2. Yellow Dot = BA/VM12/VM14
  3. Red Dot = VM18

I suggest adding the dot system (most used), but the best would be to add both. Thanks for your attention.

For the Dutch "Kijkwijzer" system the ages 14 & 18 should be added. (This is also used for movies) They were added in 2020. See https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/5fbe7ac717505100411144d1 & https://www.kijkwijzer.nl/en/news/kijkwijzer-renews-and-refines-with-more-ages-and-more-information/ (link in article is dead as the website structure changed)

Belgian TV uses 2 systems (as it's local law instead of country-wide)

  • TV stations in Wallonia use 10, 12 & 16 (from the French system)
  • TV stations in Flanders use 12+ & 16+

I would like to add India in tv show rating

How can I do that

Hi. I'd love to see Israel added to your database pool for content age ratings.
Info of Israel's TV content rating system can be found here, and also here.

In the guide have for Malaysia location, but not in your list,.. please help to add for Malaysia

I'd like to see Greece be added. Content translation is increased now, so we need to add content ratings as well.

I'd like to see Croatia be added. Aside from 12, 15 and 18 there should be like 7+ and all. It's not showed on Croatian TVs but is available on other streaming services.

There are 3 topics dedicated to Certification of Countries (Movie and TV) and Genres (New and Translation).
Certification Countries
https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/534413860e0a263a0200229b
Genres New
https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/51b5fe1a760ee359996a0e62
Genre Translation
https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/508aa4f619c2951bd00002a8

The work of changing and/or implementing New Genres or Translations and Certifications has been stalled for a long time.
But I believe that if and when this work is resumed, the data that users have posted in these threads will be used.
So I suggest you post your question there.
And be patient because the To-Do list is long.
