Contents
Usage
This template is intended to be put at the top of biographical articles which rely primarily or entirely on the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) as a source. It places the articles in Category:Articles sourced by IMDb or an appropriate subcategory. If a significant amount of material is attributed to sources other than IMDb, but there is still unreferenced material, consider using {{BLP refimprove}} instead.
Parameters
This template takes three named parameters:
|date=, to add the date manually|only=, if IMDb is the only source, then add|only=yes– the default is "no". The{{BLP IMDb-only refimprove}}template is an implementation of this template with the|only=yesparameter included by default.|living=, if the article's subject is not alive, then add|living=no– the default is "yes". This parameter set to "no" will omit the final sentence of the template, and the first link will then go to WP:BDP, which explains that WP:BLP may still apply to non-living persons under certain conditions.

{{BLP IMDb refimprove|date=December 2025}}- Paste-ready version for an article which relies primarily on IMDb as a source; the month and year are added manually.
