I've noticed several newer titles are missing in the manga encyclopedia, but when I try to add such titles as for example Vinland Saga, Team Medical Dragon, Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar, AiKora etc
I get a message saying it already is in the database. Some clarification please?
And when it does work to add them, for example with "Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar", they just dont show up. (I've tried adding this title several months ago)

And I've also seen an error in the database, the French manga-publisher of Wingman (by Masakazu Katsura) is stated as Pika Editions. But in fact it was published by Manga Player Editions, but they dont exist anymore and they only published Wingman up till the 6th volume.

This means that they have already been submitted.

Users cannot add manga, they can only submit them. Also:

Title Submission Page wrote:
Please note:For the submission of new anime titles, the information must be verified by our editors to ensure it is valid and unique. So you might have to wait up to a few days until the anime is actually added to the encyclopedia. For this reason also, it would be very useful if you could provide an URL where we can check the validity of the title.


I'd edit the few days part to a few months, since as long as I've been here, a few days hasn't existed. A recent list of submitted titles can be found here. There are 470 manga titles to work through and Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar is towards the bottom of the list. So it'll be awhile, unless someone decides to do you a favor.

Submit an error report, through the error reporting system found at the bottom of every encyclopedia entry.
