I'm adding the info for the manga of Little Snow Fairy Sugar but I'm stumped as to the proper catagory. The book lists "BH SNOW+CLINIC as the Illustrator and I originally listed them as a company. However, they're probably not a real company, but an artistic group like CLAMP and therefore would be merely staff, right?
So does anybody have an opinion as to which catagory they should be listed as? |

Gahhhh! Why did you list her as a company?!
The reason why the "art:" part of staff is still vacant because the current system does not allow special symbols (the plus sign in this case) within a name, even if it's a penname. By the way, for most manga titles there are only three possible staff positions: "story," "art," and "story & art." For adaptations, there are "original creator" and "original character design." Please don't use "author," "illustrator," "artwork," etc. |

You may have noticed (or not), but I spent a lot of time compiling duplicate tasks for staff and for companies in the ANN database. For companies, there was no task “illustrator” one month back (see Dan42’s post). So it seems that you also created a new task for this.  
I don’t want to reprehend you or anybody, but next time you have a non-existing taks, please take a minute to check if there’s not a similar task already in the database. All these different task names for an identical job don’t look very neat (and it take a lot of time correcting them). 
The task “illustrations” already existed, but as Dormcat indicates, art was a far better choice. |
