Filming dates on IMDb – Where are the sources?


You can often find information about filming dates in the Filming & production section of IMDb. Sometimes the dates are very specific, like “Oct 17, 1993 – Feb 30, 1994,” while other times they are more vague, such as “2006” or “October 2006.”

However, there is no source provided for this data, which raises the question of whether users can input arbitrary information or if these details are verified before being published.

imdb is a mess.

I would be satisfied with a source citation for each date. Especially entries like “October 2006” appear to be merely estimated and automatically taken by the program without verification. Does IMDb require references for entries, or can anyone freely edit them? (I’ve never been registered with IMDb).

Unfortunately, I don’t know of any other site that provides the exact shooting dates for a movie ...
