I think I remember there was a tag 'Collection of Oneshots' which I found useful to tag manga with different story in each chapter. Did it disappeared for a particular reason, redundancy with another tag or function that had escape my scope of vision...?

Not really a bug, but might I suggest implementing some kind of system where if you started typing a word, not only will the pull down suggestion will show existing words beginning with said word, but also phrases where the word shows up in the middle or end.

I think this would be especially helpful in decreasing the amount of duplicate tag suggestions that are pretty much the same but with different phrasing.

For example, if you wanted to add a 'restaurant' tag to series, it will look like it doesn't exist. But if you start typing 'cafe', 'restaurant' will suddenly show up because it is included at the end of the phrase.

Another example, is the extra 'bar' tag, which was probably added because the person didn't know 'bar' was already included in 'cafe/bakery/bar/restaurant'


Thank you.

I know I tagged several manga with something similar to this, maybe "One-shot collection" and now they are no longer tagged and there is no such category. I thought maybe they were merged with "Anthology" tag, but they weren't. Would a collection of one-shots be considered the same as an anthology?

Some of the manga I remember tagging are Haruyuki Bus, Caramel Milk Tea, Ringo Hoppe no Koi, Seishun Survival, and Penguin Prince.

Is there a reason these tags disappeared?

(Edited for space)

The first category was Collection of Short Stories, and it was merged into Oneshots Collection (though, Collection of Short Stories/Oneshots would have been better).
As for what happened with Oneshots Collection, it was removed... I don't know why though.

The problem is... some people fail to find out what the term 'oneshot' means >.>

Thus we have not only the collections of stand-alone one-chapter stories (that appeared independently of each other and were later collected in the same book) tagged as such, but also full-lenght manga that was serialized in the same magazine under the certain title, but seems to be composed of unrelated episodes. Like Majo, that is not a 'collection' of separate stories, but a witch-themed manga series, Haruyuki Bus, which was also serialized (Japanese Wiki), Mangaka Chou Zankoku Monogatari (Shogakukan), Subarashii Sekai (Comic Natalie), etc. Although there is already an 'episodic' category -.-;

I believe that 'Collection of Short Stories' was originally meant for Tanpenshuu (短篇集 - lit. 'short story collection'), but even if it wasn't, there is going to be considerably greater confusion after its merging with 'Oneshots'.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think there's something wrong with the Ronin category.

In Usagi Yojimbo this tag means "a samurai without a master", while in Love Hina it's "a student who failed an entrance university exam". Shouldn't these meanings be separated somehow?

Then how do you propose to separate them?

It should probably be "Ronin Samurai" and "Ronin Student".

I changed them all to Ronin Student now. Either give me list of series that need to be corrected to the samurai one or do it yourself

Ronin Student needs to be removed from these three:

Saraiya Goyou
Tenpou Ibun Ayakashi Ayashi
Hi no Matoi

Not right now... there were only four series under that category, and Love Hina was the other one... which stays under Ronin Student.

It's not exactly a bug, but I think this better to ask this question here than in "random questions"...
There was an "over 50 volumes" category, but it seems that it doesn't exist anymore. Could you tell me why it was deleted? I'm just curious.

Not a bug but a suggestion - somebody's created a category for 'romance'. Given romance is already a genre, it seems pointless to have a tag for it as well. Perhaps it should be removed?
