Hello,

I was browsing your API for an essay on the semantic web and noticed that quite a few articles (729 and counting) use IMDb film IDs. I was wondering why the use of "imdb" was not listed as an acceptable string to pass to "show-references" in the API documentation.

The query I used:The documentation's list of acceptable references:
  • author
  • bisac-prefix
  • esa-cricket-match
  • esa-football-match
  • esa-football-team
  • esa-football-tournament
  • isbn
  • musicbrainz
  • musicbrainzgenre
  • opta-cricket-match
  • opta-football-match
  • opta-football-team
  • opta-football-tournament
  • pa-football-competition
  • pa-football-match
  • pa-football-team
  • r1-film
  • reuters-index-ric
  • reuters-stock-ric
  • witness-assignment

Regards,
Kit

Thanks for updating the documentation. If I'd noticed the reply sooner (didn't get an email) I'd have saved you the time and submitted a PR.
