I was wondering if it possible to add manga or anime to "my Manga/Anime" that does not have an Encyclopaedia entry so that it can be rated?

I ask as I have quite a few manga series that are not available in the Encyclopaedia which I added for approval earlier last year. These series are still amongst the list waiting for approval, that's not a dig as I don't know the process and I know the team are very busy, there are also many titles on there that have been on longer than my suggestions. As well as the former I have "supported" (I think that's the term used) other series that I have read or I know are genuine but they are also on the list.

If adding a title that is not in the Encyclopaedia onto our personal lists is not already possible I was thinking that users could manually type an addition that would only show on said users list, thus not needing an encyclopaedia entry. If the title is added at a later date the user can remove the line the created and replace with the linked entry created by ANN. Would something like my suggestion be possible?

I appear to have asked a couple of unanswerable questions; that's a first for me Laughing

Sorry, that would be a nice feature but it's not one that we have. Or have the time to develop at the moment. But we'll try to see what we can do about speeding up those manga submissions...

Thank you for responding and I understand the frustrations of time constraints. With the additions, is this something that is already or can be created by the number of supports a title is given? Then in tern leaving "us" to add in relevant information within the encyclopaedia page? This may sound completely ridiculous as I guess someone would have to create a page for the entry rather than it auto creating.

Tsuna, if you PM me which submissions are yours, I can look into getting them approved quickly.
