I was wondering why it is so hard to get a page made about these four different series. I want to have manga pages for all the mangas in the game Jump Ultimate Stars (All Serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump). I have requested pages for them before but with no results. I will explain the cases of each series.

Jungle King Taa-chan
There is already an anime in the database for this series. I think it is pretty old. (anime#119)
Now, the game Jump Ultimate Stars is based on MANGAS, so a manga for this series must exist. (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/ajuj/character/chara_13.html)

Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro
This is a fairly new Shonen Jump Series. It so far has 8 volumes. (http://jump.shueisha.co.jp/neuro/) It has a wikipedia page with a picture of the cover and a plot summary. It also has many other facts about it. More than enough to deserve a page. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majin_Tantei_Nougami_Neuro)

Muhyo to Rouji no Mahoritsu Soudan Jimusou
Another fairly new series in the same boat as Neuro. It has 8 volumes as well. (http://jump.shueisha.co.jp/muhyo/) It has no wikipedia page, but it is mentioned on the wiki for Jump Ultimate Stars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_Ultimate_Stars#Represented_Series). I have read scanlations of this series so it must exist.

Taizo Mote King Saga
This is another new series. It doesn't have as much information on it as the other three, but still. It deserves a page. It is on the popjump page in the upper right hand corner with the riceball shaped head. (http://jump.shueisha.co.jp/home.html) It is mentioned on the JUS wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_Ultimate_Stars#Represented_Series). It is also on the JUS site (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/ajuj/character/chara_17.html). I did find the volumes on Amazon though (http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/4088742540/ref=nosim/accessuporg-22).


I think all four of these series deserve a page. And also, the page for Tattemo Luckyman should be linked to the Weekly Shonen Jump Page, because it is also in the game. (manga#4687), (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/ajuj/character/chara_22.html)

There's several things that may attribute to why these aren't in the encyclopedia yet. One, none of the people here at ANN have gotten wind of these yet, therefore have not had the chance to review or preview them. Two, they have been submitted to the encyclopedia for adding, but given the long list of manga titles they have pending for adding, they just haven't gotten around to taking care of those titles yet. Only thing I can say is be patient. If the title you wish to be in the encyclopedia has the undying interest of one the encyclopedia staff members you may be able to coordinate with them and you might get the title in there quicker than you think.

Yeah. That's what happened with Puyu to Fuku Jaguar. I made a topic about it and the administrator made a page for it. Maybe I should message the contents of this to one.

The thing that would make it better to be noticed would be to post it in the actual encyclopedia forum. That's where the encyclopedia staff normally hang out.
