If this results in nothing I'll make the step and delete everything and anything from Anime I have never seen.

I don't know what Dan has planned for the next encyclopedia updates, but there are already other sites that have a character database with pictures you could contribute to including Anime Planet, Kitsu.io and My Anime List.

I'll add aniSearch (formerly aniSearch.de) to that list.

Can someone post an ANN entry for the Japanese and Korean and Chinese staff for The Boondocks, as well as the Japanese seiyuu, please? Thanks.

It would be nice if 'isekai' was added to the genre list.

Isekai would be a theme, not a genre.

I would like to suggest that on the following Sailor Moon pages (anime: 363, 213, 811, 80, 812, 280, & 813), that the English cast is split up into different tables.

English (Canadian) cast:
and
English (American) cast:

Now that there are 2 different English dubs (of the above listed Sailor Moon TV series and Movies) the English cast table is getting very hectic and hard to tell who played who for which version. I suggest to separate them and have each cast list re-arranged to A-Z (by either actor's given or surname) to give it more of an organized look.

If you require any help, I am happy to do what I can. I'm currently in conversations with at least 15 of the original Optimum cast - slowly gathering confirmations on all of them to what roles they played (by sending them video clips to confirm; I spent a month creating the clips from all 159 episode and 3 movies) so we can finally kick all the rumours to the curb. The complete cast list I have been typing up is filling up quickly, and I'm sure soon enough we'll have at least 90% of the character roles officially covered.

Again, I am happy to discuss this more and help wherever possible. As an avid fan of the Sailor Moon series, I feel it's time to give the Canadian dub a little more attention; especially because it's the 25th anniversary this August!

Why doesn't "Altered Carbon: Resleeved" got an encyclopedia page until now?
I mean, it's an actual anime, produced in Japan with japanese staff and with japanese being the original audio.

I agree It does surprise me that this film isn't featured on the site despite having articles based on this.

You can always submit it to the Encyclopedia yourself and (in theory) an editor will review it and approve it (eventually). (My ad blocking/privacy software interferes with my seeing that part of the site, so I can't do it myself or even check to see if it's waiting in the "to be approved/denied" list.)

Would it at all be possible for the Encyclopedia to change how the following tasks are displayed?

"Packaging" should be displayed as "Packaging Design"
"Menus" should be displayed as "Menu Design"
"Project Translator" should be displayed as "Translation"

Lastly, can the Encyclopedia stop displaying "Menu Design" as "DVD Menu Design" when adding a company? Over the last decade, combo pack releases have been very common, and if a separate company is doing the menus, rarely is it different for the Blu-ray and DVD, so "Menu Design" works quite well rather than doing a separate "Blu-ray Menu Design" and "DVD Menu Design" every time, they should be separate only when they actually differ. Additionally, Blu-ray-only releases are now quite common, Blu-ray has effectively replaced DVD when it comes to anime. A few months ago I added this company for 2 different things, one is a combo pack release (The Tatami Galaxy) and another is a Blu-ray-only release (Strike Witches 501st), and it was a bit annoying to see "Menu Design" turn into "DVD Menu Design" when "Menu Design" would work much better, and also, to my knowledge the task "Blu-ray Menu Design" didn't already exist, it only exists for people.

While I haven't been deep enough into editing in long time to have encountered the problems BigOnAnime mentions, all the suggestions in BOA's post make sense to me.

Another suggestion, if anyone puts down "DVD Menu", have it display as "DVD Menu Design". I've found in some rather old entries people that down instead of "DVD Menu Design", like with Kino's Journey and Ghost Stories. It'd probably also be a good idea to have "Blu-ray Menu" and "Blu-ray Menus" get displayed as "Blu-ray Menu Design" if someone ever enters that, though I've yet to encounter that.

Another suggestion, when it comes to companies, "Dubbing" and "Dubbing Studio" probably should be displayed as "ADR Production". I've found that in multiple entries.
company#3931
company#38
company#421
company#358
company#628
company#558

I notice the encyclopedia page for the new Higurashi anime has been changed to show the "secret" title. Should it also be changed to list it as spoiler[a sequel rather than a remake]?
