I have seen this everywhere and to be honest
it's pissing me off. No one is getting their facts
straight. Twilight is not a manga! In Japan they
made the series into separate parts and put
in illustrations that are sporadically placed throughout
the books. Don't believe me? This website is proof
enough along with links to the illustrations -.-

The Site itself

Links to the Illustrations for those that can't find
them for some unknown reason >.> It says very
clearly above all of the illustrations that it's not
a manga. Hopefully everyone is now well informed.

Also if it's allowed to be an artbook then so should
Dr.Seuss
-.-

Twilight Illustrations

New Moon Illustrations

Eclipse Illustrations

Breaking Dawn Illustrations

I take it you are referring to this page here (Twilight)?
You could've just used the "Request Change" button and asked for it's removal...?

I tried that once before at another site
but no one believed me so I figured I'd
make a thread just to be safe.

Is it really that big of a deal?

I'm sorry, I found your seriousness on the issue kind of funny, but I guess I can understand your frustrations. If people want to believe that it's a manga then let them. As stated above me, it was added as an artbook. I knew that it wasn't a manga and I know some people who knows this as well. But there will always be someone who's dense enough, you know?

It was bothering me a little that people keep thinking the Twilight entry here is a manga, too. It's definitely a translated version of the Twilight series that included manga-style illustrations, much like light novels that are in the MU database. Personally, I think it should be classified as a novel. Actually, I might've changed it once... laugh

I for one, have no objections to this. Dr. Seuss was freakin' awesome.

ETA: Ah, I didn't notice akaruihotaru wrote the same thing I did basically. Never mind then

C'mon, that isn't even an artbook. A book with some illustrations isn't an artbook, otherwise we could be having all manner of books turning up in the database.
An artbook should be a book that collects various illutsrations and drawings from a particular show/film/manga.

I suggest the entry be removed.
