This is a documentation subpage for Template:BLP IMDb-only refimprove.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

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. It is a wrapper for the {{BLP IMDb refimprove}} template with the |only=yes parameter included.

If the article relies primarily but not entirely on IMDb as a source, use the general {{BLP IMDb refimprove}} template instead; 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 one named parameter:

|date=, to add the date
