We don't use it here. It has no value whatsoever. The coin of the realm in Misplaced Pages is Verifiability, Notability and Reliability. Citations are the only thing we rely upon. If someone writes a citable article talking about how Kirk and Spock make creepy monkey pon-farr in the backseat of 65 Buick, then we can include it. The litmus for inclusion is citability, not truth. Fortunately, there are other sources which overwhelm the other citable info and thus can be removed under the argument of undue weight. Imdb is not a reliable, citable source. - Arcayne () 15:49, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
