Ability to show only TV and movies in the list

Hello.

I like to reference like everything I've seen in my MAL, just in case, but sometimes when you show your MAL to someone, all the specials, the musics, all the quite unnecessary things are there and it's quite a mess in the list, not very readable for the visitor.

I thought it would be a nice option to be able to hide all those "unnecessary titles" without deleting them from the MAL.



“Read as little as possible of critical or aesthetic works. They are either products of a close-minded spirit, petrified and devoid of meaning in their lifeless hardening, or clever verbal games [...]. Works of art are of an infinite solitude; nothing is worse than criticism for approaching them. Only love can grasp them, keep them, be just toward them. Always give precedence to your own feeling against these analyses, these reviews, these introductions. [...] You must let every impression, every seed of feeling, ripen within you, in the dark, in the inexpressible, in the unconscious, those regions closed to understanding. Wait with humility and patience for the hour of the birth of a new clarity. Art demands of its faithful followers as much as of its creators.”
— RAINER-MARIA Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (letter dated April 23, 1903).

Well Idk about hiding, but you can arrange anime in your list by type(meaning tv, movie, special, ova) if you have the type column on your list.

Added it to one of my existing userscripts:
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/169670

Since that script mostly deals with top list, the "setting" to turn on the type filter box in anime lists is on anime top list page (enable "Type filter on anime lists" from there, then a select box will show up anime lists after that). It appends the selected type to the URL of anime list when you select something from the select box, which automatically selects that type if used by someone with the script installed.

Although it won't help much if you want to share the list with others, since they'd have to install the script too, which would probably be a bit of an overkill.
If you generalize, you're wrong.

I didn't just change it to that, but that's my avatar from like a year ago, about 5 or 6 avatars ago, so it is a MAL glitch. I still see my Chiho(green background, nodding head girl). That's still funny every time I see it.

My anime list's primary purpose is to track your anime/manga, not to watch or stream it, you need to buy, subscribe to streaming services, or use sites and other illegal means to watch them.

well, there are a few extensions and list designs specifically made to hide those 'unnecessary titles' lol. You can find them in Shisio-kun's club

It’s time to ditch the text file.
Keep track of your anime easily by creating your own list.
