Reviews of Currently Airing Series
Previews are reviews of an ongoing series written before the final installment has been released. Previews written within the first few episodes/chapters of a series are typically commentaries on the writer's feeling of what they have viewed so far and where they hope the anime/manga will go, which is really text that belongs in an episode/chapter discussion post. After some episodes/chapters, these previews can become useful for users deciding which currently airing/publishing series to view; however, they lose this purpose upon the series' completion. A reader who is interested in viewing the completed series will find more credible information in a conclusive review than a preview. Thus:
Review text should not be submitted until the:
4th episode has been viewed for TV series one cours (~13 eps) in length;
6th episode has been viewed for TV series two cours (~26 eps) in length;
10th episode has been viewed for TV series four cours (~52 eps) or longer in length.
OVA and Manga reviews will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis while taking the time between subsequent releases/chapters and total expected length into account.
Previews will be removed from currently airing/publishing series upon their completion, unless:
the series was dropped by the user past the half-way mark; or,
it is less likely that complete reviews will be written for this series because of demographics, number of users, etc.
These incomplete reviews will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, striving to keep credible reviews for the userbase without eliminating all reviews present.
