Is there any way to list a theme song without knowing who sang it? I assume the reason we can't is because we can't edit other peoples work, but maybe there could be an a option to add it later by anyone? Seems like there's a lot of anime out there that is so obscure that no one has record of the performer, just the name of the song itself.

Yeah, that's very weird. I just download the Rurouni Kenshin song "Heart of Sword" and there wasn't any information on it beside the name. BTW, who sing it?

You have a pretty good point, Emerje. I was about to change it to make the artist's name optional, but then I thought of a better and simpler way. I simply added in the instructions:
Quote:
If you do not know the name of the artist/group, use "???"
That way people will be more inclined to submit an error report if they know the correct name. Otherwise they'd be just as likely to think the name was omitted on purpose.
