Most of the actor/actress profiles are very short, and only seem to cover the first few years (ex. an actor active from 2010-2018 will have a profile that covers 2010-2012 or 2013). Some profiles are long, and cover entire careers.
I attempted to post a profile for an actress covering 2010-2018, but only 2010-2012 was actually posted.
Is there now a current size limit for profiles, a limit that didn't exist when the longer profiles were originally posted?
A huge chunk of the database was posted around that time (the site was launched in 2011) so unless someone has gone out of their way to update it then that's all the biography will show.
Biographies are meant to be concise, long ones may be too bulky.
Updating their biography with crucial information is important but too much information is generally unwanted from what I've seen. After all, the dramas, movies, and shows they've starred in tend to tell most of the story already.

Also, do note that edits are not posted automatically. They have to be first approved by one of the Approval Staff before going live, which from my experience can take a couple of minutes to about 2 days.
