Adding Naver manhwa to database

I'm wondering why some of the good manhwa were not present in the database. Does this site have some restrictions to add manga to database like myanimelist?

Which specific series are you asking about? In general, if a series is missing, then it's because no one bothered to add it here. There are some restrictions though, but I can't think of any that could affect Naver manhwa

Here are some I couldn't find
I love Yoo
Miss Abbott and the Doctor
Hokey
Where Tangents Meet
Siren's Lament
Rice from Ashes
From the looks of it I'm guessing if the author is not Asian, then manhwa cant be listed..

You know, at least in the case of a couple/few of those (that Tangents one and the I Love Yoo one), I'm almost positive those are actually OEL's....... as in original English language webtoons......... not translated manwha/web comics, which would mean they wouldn't be listed here at all.
You're saying Naver but I think we're actually talking about LINE Webtoon, which doesn't exclusively carry translated Naver titles.
No clue about all of them, but that might be what you're running into.

Hmm. yeah i guess so. Given how through the database is I thought there is some kind of restrictions preventing them from added. Thanks.

svines85 is correct. Most (if not all) of the titles you listed are OEL webcomics, which we don't allow. I think the series I've rejected the most is unOrdinary

Quick question... since you say OEL type of webtoons aren't allowed... then why was Age Matters approved? o.o

The site is weird like that. The Rise Of Ultraman made it into the database, not that I mind, but it is a traditional monthly 5 issue US comic that seems to be set in the regular 616 Marvel universe. Good luck when those sequels hit.
I also read EU/US comics and am a librarian.

I've removed every series by Enjelicious (which includes Age Matters)
The Rise Of Ultraman is OEL, but it's not an OEL webcomic, which is why it's allowed
