Hi there!
Can i suggest you to include a field to fill the CRC32 of each release?
We all know that sometimes, we can't be 100% sure we got the original version of almost all the releases we get on the internet, for a bunch of reason like, when we can't be sure if the file got corrupted while downloading, or if the torrent had the files changed, or if the aggregator reduced its size to save bandwidth, even sometimes when corrected versions of some of the releases are out, we could end not knowing if we have the newest version etc, etc...
Very few groups use or have that custom at the moment, and most of the times, the ones that use them are anime fansubs as well, were including the CRC32 number in the name of the file is an uncalled standard.
I think if you guys have the initiative, little by little, all the groups of the manga community could accept this custom as well, to assure the durability and reliability of all the releases over time.
To check the CRC32 of a file is extremely easy with a lot of programs available.
Thank you in advance for your attention 😉

We will not be doing this. It is not feasible or necessary for scanlations.
