Many times I give good documentaries a 10/10
I tend to avoid that stuff since documentaries tend to be more of the 'decent enough for a viewing' but don't leave any lasting impression on me. I would tend to use the 6/10 or less scoring for a very high percentage of these with a very high percentage being a 5/10 since it's okay enough for a viewing but ultimately has no re-watch value as the small amount I do like and could re-watch is generally going to get a 6/10 for me as the only exception to that rule of me is The Iceman Interviews which contain the 1992/2001/2003 interviews with him, which I gave a 7/10 as it's definitely my most re-watched documentary which are basically the three things at the following link listed under 'Self'... Richard Kuklinski ; basically it's one large file I got which contains all three interviews.
in fact, while I have seen some documentaries I am generally not in a rush to see more random ones because they generally don't have much re-watch appeal and that's my ultimate goal when watching movies in general is to find ones I want to re-watch here and there as the years pass.
basically when I rate a movie/TV show (and the like) I tend to rate it in relation to ALL I have seen. it makes the most sense this way otherwise your artificially inflating a movies etc score if you try to rate by genre etc which ultimately makes no sense as it's more accurate to rate in terms of all stuff you have seen since it accurately portrays how much you like something. because I think that's a problem with at least some people who rate stuff on IMDb as they use 7-8-9-10 scores a bit too often and it starts making it more difficult to see what they truly like a lot vs just another movie etc. because I don't know about everyone else but I tend to assume scores in the 7-8/10 range or higher should be reserved more for ones higher tier movies, not just some movie someone gives a 8/10 or something and then quickly forgets about it and moves onto the next movie which makes it more difficult for someone to see what the viewer truly likes quite a bit etc.
the only rare exception to that rule (as in rating movies/TV shows/videos games etc on how much I like them and the further they get away from that the lower the rating) for me might be a small amount of video games that I might rate a bit more on nostalgia than my interest in them to this day. because normally ill adjust my ratings (higher or lower) depending on my interest in something as I replay/re-watch it over the years. but there is only one video game that's a legit 10/10 for me to this day... Mafia (2002) (on PC) which I first played in about Aug 2002 when it was new and replayed here and there over the years since with my most recent replay on it's 16th anniversary in Aug 2018.
Too bad you can't filter only feature films, etc etc..
But you can... www.imdb.com/search/title/ 

just make sure to select 'Restrict to Titles I've Seen' under 'Your Ratings' on the bottom area of that page before clicking 'Search'. I would assume 'Title Type' is where you can remove Documentaries from the search results
