The encyclopedia is great, I love being able to go through and check and submit info. It's certainly growing to be my favorite behind the scenes database. Only thing that I think it needs to be perfect though is character bios. There's been several times where I'll be going through a series and I want to know more about the characters in it. Or maybe I'll be reading and not remember a character and want to refresh my memorie on just what that character's role was. Any chance of adding bio contributions to the Encyclopedia?

Ah... character bios. Sooner or later I'm going to have to add this feature. There have actually been a few submissions of "other information" that contained character bios but we were forced to discard them because the encyclopedia is simply not built to deal with that. But if, like I said in my first letter, we truly hope to hold the sum of all anime knowledge, I really have to add this feature. But in the meantime let's use this thread to store character bio information.
