Editing Suggestions

So that's why it disappeared! I thought I remembered wrong!  I always find it sad to not being able to add co-productions to my list (like the head , snowpiercer and Giri/Haji for example), so I get how you feel. >..< 

Guess Skye got reports from someone and he deleted The Head.

Giri/Haji is a British series directed, written, and produced by non-Japanese people, that is why we can’t add it, just like Memoirs of a Geisha.

Though I believe this was probably wrongly approved in the first place (due to the co-production thing), if in similar situations users could at the very least communicate more about and vote upon editing rules there could be some sort of discussion opened regarding said situation. There's always a grey area, even in the rules and guidelines here on this site. In my mind, transparency goes hand in hand with the respect you mention regarding the handling of your edits.

Same! Haha. I was very happy when I found this site.

It was not wrongly approved. Co-produced content are allowed per rules, but the admin may delete them if they deem them too western. Even if users vote for a co-produced title, in the end, it is the admin’s decision to kerp or remove it, so users’ opinion would not matter just as it was deleted in this case.

So the decision was made by a single admin and not by the majority vote among all admins?

It's co-produced by BBC UK and Netfix. There are already a lot of Netflix series here. Just the fact that it premiered not on Netflix, doesn't make it less of a Netlfix series in my opinion, but I get it that since the director is British, people may deem it less Japanese despite the Japanese actors, Japanese dialogues, Japanese title in posters and so on. I guess this in one of the case when I would prefer to hear the majority of user's opinion.

To semi quote an old american movie "The is not at a cheerocracy, it is a cheertatorship"

I think you can see what I mean from that, Skye and Ji-N have the final say and we are grateful for this awesome site they provded us with, in the end this is their baby and their money maker.  "Transparency " the new catch phrase for this generation, is not always a good thing, because someone will always be upset about something.  And I dont like Grey areas....only in my dramas.

No one said it was rejected because it did not air on Netflix. You can google the title and it would say British series, it doesn’t say it is co-produced. Having asian cast, doesn’t mean it is co-produced.

I've read on different headlines it's a co-production...Like since 2017. 

@keebs777 you have a point , but we also need to prevent the system from being abused by people who spam even with multiple fake accounts or bots (even illegal websites, 18 + stuff, advertisement , links ect), so I think that automatic approval should still be a big no :/ 

It is true that they own it, but without the contributors and people using it they would like... talk to themselves and use all their time to add all that huge amount of info, right? It's not like they HAVE to listen to the people they invite in "their house", but if they want to make the most of their guests feel comfortable, it is important to listen to their opinions. That's why they created the suggestions page in the first place and they can be voted , don't you think?
