I think I messed up the submission I made... I haven't seen an email so it may not have been reviewed yet... dunno

The submission was for "Blue Gender (manga)"
and a url to some scans I made of it... forum it was posted to was members only until recently (oops Embarassed )
http://forum.exp-ext.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=146&t=341

I'd love it open it for release dates, page counts, artists, etc... but its never read and sealed in a collectors wrapper.... I don't intend to open it... ever... well.. ok, maybe I will LOL

EDIT---
from eBay auction:
BLUE GENDER MANGA COMIC BOOK

pages : 170 all in b/w
Languages : Japanese
Size : approx 8.2 x 5.8 inches

Condition : Excellent

When something is submitted the staff must check all sources provided to make sure that the imformation that they put in the encyclopedia is relevant. Since they have about 500+ titles waiting to be checked on, it's usually a process that takes anywhere from 1 to 6 months. Depending upon when you submitted it, it could take a while. I submitted a title several months ago and it was just added last month.

Added, but only because it fits the criteria of #1 priority.

See if you can find the official romaji of the artists name (加崎 善彦) on the book cover (or on the copyright page, if you want to open its shrink wrap). It can be spelled as Yoshihiko KASAKI, but I can't find any source to support it.

That wouldn't cut it. They need some kind of Romaji or source to read it and be 100% sure.

I already know his kanji name (加崎 善彦) and a possible romaji (Yoshihiko KASAKI). I just need a reputable and verifiable source.

It's not official, and maybe not reputable, but it's the only decent (i.e. not mentioned in a forum) source I could find.

Yesasia suck at romanizing.. e.g. they always ignore the size of katakana leading to screwed up titles like this
