| there gonna be an update? I have 6 manga in que. |
| It seems Loxaris, eL_marco and adamantine are no longer mods. On the other hand, svaax has rejoined the manga side, so the effective number of manga database mods has actually gone up. |

| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| As far as I can tell, svaax has recently had an active presence on the manga side (mostly rejections), so I guess it's official now. In any case, here's what's been approved in the last week or so: Fushigi Neko no Kyuu-chan Samenai Machi no Kissaten Sarashina Subaru-kun no Meirei wa Zettai!! Subete no Jinrui wo Hakai suru. Sorera wa Saisei Dekinai. Subete no Jinrui wo Hakai suru. Sorera wa Saisei Dekinai. Flow Saikyou Tank no Meikyuu Kouryaku: Tairyoku 9999 no Rare Skill-mochi Tank, Yuusha Party wo Tsuihou sareru Sarazanmai Even though I generally don't read them, I'm glad that a manhwa has been approved. I don't remember how long it's been since the last one was approved, but it feels like it's been a while. |

Anime-Planet added more than that just today. Watching A-P's "recently added manga" page update and watching this thread is like night and day. |
| Hopefully this will get better with new mods. I received a message about the competition to be a new mod since I was a volunteer but I refused since I couldn't do that anymore. It's probably going to be a long process as from what I saw is quite a difficult process to submit things as a mod and the testing is long. But yeah, in a few months this issue probably will get much better |

The battle is over.  Show respect for the fallen who fought so bravely. |
| Well, good luck to the future manga mods. |

| They should start by paying mods, and make it a regular job. Then this problem will be solved for sure. |
Napok said: I've thought of something similar, hiring some temporary mods to work through the backlog, but I know that'll never happen. I can already picture some of the reasons they'd give to why they wouldn't want to do that. They should start by paying mods, and make it a regular job. Then this problem will be solved for sure. |

In order to pay staff, the company needs to be selling a product that creates a steady source of income. MAL, Anime-Planet, Anilist and Kitsu are all free-to-use platforms, thus the staff are all volunteers. |

I thought because they've been acquired by Media Do they had something figured out. |
| Now thinking about it, volunteer work is really stressful when there is a lot of pending work that's not in your field. |

| Can someone finally approve USCA? It's an English anthology, but was published in Japan by a Japanese publisher. https://myanimelist.net/manga/113827/USCA_English_Edition |
| There seem to be a few more Manga Mod posts on this thread than there were a few days ago, without anyone actually posting in that time... |

| @Maora Thanks! There's a long way to go before anything's official, but I'm personally glad to be here. Anyways, since manga_db_nerd is presumably on vacation, here's what has been approved in the last week or so: B's-LOVEY Anthology: BL of the Dead Sanshoku Mazareba Kuro ni Naru Eden no Uragawa Kaitai Zanuff Hanarai Zesshaka! Shiritsu Yotsuwa Joshi Gakuin Zetsumetsu Kigu-sha Gakka Soredemo Suki desu Kasahara-san Kono Hoshi de Ichiban Akarui Tokoro Noda-ke no Oshie ni Yori Nanimo Iuna Douluo Dalu 3: Longwang Chuanshuo I: Itou-san 2 Kuzu Seito to Stalker Sensei Jawbreaker Omae no Koi wa Ore no Mono Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory Sabi no Yume Bokura wa Nandomo Koi wo Suru Kagaku to Mahou no Kakutouka-tachi Barairo no Jidai Killing Stalking Haguruma Drive. Zenra Otoko to Shibainu Otoko: Keishichou Seikatsu Anzenbu Yuugeki Sousahan Rumspringa no Joukei Ookami wa Nemuranai Koko wo Isekai to Suru! |

| I don't find these titles in the list of newly pending : https://myanimelist.net/manga/112478/Tokyo_monogatari https://myanimelist.net/manga/116244/Maou_no_Kizahashi It's been over a year that they are waiting^^ |
spyda89 said: does anyone know why some manga appear in author Published Manga section but they're not approved? for example https://myanimelist.net/manga/117676/Rappa_Rendan https://myanimelist.net/manga/104259/Kung-Fu_Master https://myanimelist.net/manga/115935/Apollo_Naba_Fusai I mean, a mod must have approved it, but only for the author page and not the database? It's because someone requested to add the author to the entry. These author requests used to get approved all the time without actually approving the entry (I'd say about 25~30% of unapproved entries have an author credit). |

spyda89 said: Denji said: It's because someone requested to add the author to the entry. These author requests used to get approved all the time without actually approving the entry (I'd say about 25~30% of unapproved entries have an author credit). oh, i see... but in the process of adding the author doesn't the mod research it to make sure that the information is correct and the manga is actually made by this person? if so, what's stopping them from just approving them and adding it to the db and be done with it? they already acknowledge that the entry is accurate, how many more steps are needed for it to be added to the db? Confirming if an author credit is correct takes very little effort, and since it is a modification request, it is processed separately from the rest of the approval process (which takes more effort). I can't speak for the past decisions of the mods, but this practice has stopped for the moment anyways since we're focusing on approvals. I'll try to keep your submissions in mind, though I'm juggling a lot of different priorities of what to approve right now. |

T3Deliciouz said: I just submitted several modifications to backgrounds. How long do those take. Currently, manga approvals are the one and only priority. Until the queue has been dealt with, modification requests will be put on the back burner. |
| Nice, everything is coming really fast lately. Great job guys. |
smh this is like the most popular manga on here. No wonder it takes mods a long time to approve a series when people who doesn't know how to use the damn search function are submitting manga. Also, shout out to the mods, approvals are picking up the pace lately, it's nice to see. Thanks for your hard work! |
manga_db_nerd said: I updated the pending queue here: https://myanimelist.net/comments.php?id=7574892 In almost every single post in your list, save for the last one, the final entry are absent or have the wrong links, it's probably a BBcode problem. You might want to see that. |
| If people think things are actually going to be approved they're more likely to submit. Even though at current speeds the average entry will take almost a year to be approved at present, that's a big improvement on what it was, so for some people that's enough to start submitting stuff again/submitting more stuff. Personally I'm still waiting for it to come down further. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| While the number of total submissions has increased, the percentage of non-eligible entries/duplicates is still the same (around 2/3rds). In fact, excluding the new Jump manga, there hasn't been an eligible non-dupe in about 30 submissions or so (the last eligible one being a webtoon, ironically). I wouldn't call it a trend yet since you can tell it's primarily a single group of users making submissions, but it's only a matter of time... P.S. If any of you are worried about submitting duplicates, this search is probably your best option for checking. |
