Since ANN is a public encyclopaedia just like Wiki, is there anywhere you can check where as to which manga/anime you have contributed information to?

If you click on the encyclopedia tab, then you'll see the main index for the encyclopedia. You should then be able to see the "contributors" link, which will take you to contributors to the encyclopedia. There is no feature to show what everybody has contributed, but you can see how much you have contributed. If you're curious about a certain information entry in one of the titles within the encyclopedia, you can check to see who contributed that information.

"but you can see how much you have contributed. "

I can't see my name :S.. The lowest one is 25 contibutions... I probably made 3 or 4.

Is there anywhere I can check which anime and manga that I have submit contribution to? Let's say, add a plot summary, theme etc...

A blue (i) ..."items added by me"

Right now only Encyclopedists can check them out, however it is indeed a good idea to allow users to check and track one's own contributions, as long as technically feasible. On the other hand, high volume contributors executing such command might crash their computers and/or ANN's servers. I've crashed mine twice. Neutral

Our Chief Encyclopedist Dan might add this feature to his to-do list, but I can't speak for him how fast shall this feature be implemented.
