I wonder whether it is tab where I could find if my manga submissions are still waiting for acceptance
or they have been rejected and why.
Also if somebody added manga which I plan to add, but this manga is waiting for acceptance.
Can somebody tell me there is something like this here and where I can find it?

Thanks and sorry for my english xD

All sorts of open requests, including submissions to add a series, will appear in the Pending Additions/Changes section of your User CP while they are under consideration.
I always got a request denied response, sometimes with a clear reason, when a series i submitted fell through. The submitted content needs to be of Asian origin, it also needs to be available in English in some form (you can submit the scanlation at the same time) and it can´t be a duplicate as let´s say an entry in an already present manga anthology. Webmanga with no official publisher could also be a hard sell.

A "worthy" submission can also stay in limbo for quite some time if it is complicated enough but new manga entries are processed within a day. Thanks for trying to contribute to the database .

Thanks for info


oh, so if there is no English version, but I read it on other in another language I can't add this manga to datebase/my complete list?

Eh...
Ok, nevermind...
Thanks for help

Only novels, doujinshi and oneshots need to have an English release; manga/manhwa/manhua series of 1 volume or longer can be submitted even when there's no scanlation or published version. See here.

Contrary to residentgrigo's experience, I rarely receive any notification when they reject (or alter/correct) information I've submitted.

I only got notes for rejected manga to clear things up. Most were pretyped X has been rejected with a link back to holy`bell.

The whole needs to be in English part is something i got from lambchopsil himself.
I specifically went over Azumi 2 and the series entered the MU pantheon an entire year later without involvement from me. The ones that get through the system may be exceptions or maybe not (trying doesn´t hurt) but the site sort of changed over time to a deeper scanlation focus and the direct tie-ins to a manga we already have were all rejected if they had no English arm on my end.

Someone should clear it up soon enough and i will add that the FAQ should be more frank in that regard if hahhah42 straight out cracked the code. I for example wanted to add Innocent Rouge (someone added in in the last 24 hours) for a few months and am interested to know under which direct conditions such series get approved.

I've had 18 series submissions rejected over the years, I believe I've received a pm about the rejection for 3-5 of them. The last two series I submitted were rejected without comment, and they have both been published in English. One of the series turned out to be part of a larger series, hence its rejection; whoever rejected it did update that page accordingly.

(The English publisher wasn't in the database yet either, and was also rejected. Incidentally, there's no pending publisher info in the User CP - the only way to check if it's been rejected is to check if a series listed under that publisher has [Add] by the publisher name.)


Well, a cursory look at the series most recently added to MU's database suggests otherwise, given that the first half dozen I looked at have no English releases. I certainly hope they wouldn't reject all such series, especially without announcing such a drastic change in policy.

We have site personal that adds stuff for us too (someone has to keep the lights on) regarding that function and the What's New! section is an enigma wrapped in a mystery anyway. Let´s just wait and ask a question if you get rejected the next time. I tend to get answers after all and MU isn´t quite the mystery it appears to be if one is willing to do a bit of legwork. Don´t be afraid of doublespeak though (and some decision can actually be reversed if you give sound logic).

Oh, now I understand
Thanks
Kinda bad oneshots need scanslations...
Most of manga I read are oneshots... :/

The auto-PM after a rejection is automatic and will list the person who rejected the series. It's up to you to go contact the person if they don't offer an explanation.

The rule about needing English releases only applies to novels, doujinshi, oneshots, and other alternative media. Doesn't apply to manga, manhwa, and manhua.

Let´s assume that someone wanted to fill our KOIKE Kazuo or TEZUKA Osamu library with manga of 1 Vol. or more that never left Japan. Or professionally published hentai to go in the other end of the spectrum with seemingly endless possible content.
Should we fell free to submit away?
Edit: I tried it out and now had luck where i failed before despite identical conditions. Hm.
The more you know...

I think I've only ever received one of those. I certainly didn't get one for the things I submitted the other day.

I added manga with volume and it was in my "Pending Additions/Changes",
few hours later...
I can't see it anymore in "Pending Additions/Changes"
and I can't find it in datebase...
Rejected?

Are you sure you didn't get a PM?...

I don't get PM, maybe I have something marked as "don't allow message from adm" that's why messages don't come for me...
eh.. I have lot of accounts on other sites and is easy to understand/find something on them and where is MU and I am lose...

I didn't receive the messages too. I get only one message. So I think it's exceptional case. I'm little suprised to know auto-PM was exist.
