MAL Content Rating Collections
The content_rating_mal Default Collection File is used to dynamically create collections based on the content ratings
available in your library.
If you do not use the MAL-based rating system within Plex, this file will attempt to match the ratings in your library to the respective rating system.
Requirements & Recommendations
Supported Library Types: Movie, Show
Recommendations: Use the
Mass Content Rating Update Library Operation with mal to
update Plex to the MyAnimeList Content Rating.

Template Variables
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to make your own local copy.
Note that the template_variables: section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.

```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
collection_files:
- default: content_rating_mal
template_variables:
sep_style: tan #(1)!
use_other: false #(2)!
append_addons:
"R+ - Mild Nudity": #(3)!

2. Do not create a "Not Rated Movies/Shows" collection
3. Defines a collection which will be called "R+ - Mild Nudity", this does not need to already exist in your
library
4. Adds the "de/18" content rating to the "R+ - Mild Nudity" addon list, "de/18" must exist in your library if the
"R+ - Mild Nudity" content rating does not
