Submitting albums / translation for composer, etc.
I was thinking of adding the Magic Knight Rayearth soundtracks from the anime, and, maybe it's just me, but I would actually like to see VGMdb with a lot more anime soundtracks, but that's just a person preference.
I actually would like to know if there will be anyone to take some time if I scan, which I probably will.. (well, I am doing it now.. what am I even saying..), to help translate the composer info for songs I can't find info about, or whatever they find necessary, really. It'd just be more helpful to know if someone will help out, but I'll be scanning and adding them regardless. (wow.. I forgot to hit submit.. at least this was saved in the browser) |

Hmm.. yeah, well as long as there isn't really a problem to add them. There are at least 900 listings in the video/animation section.
Also, is there a specific way to have the artist link up to the artist page? Maybe a staff has to do it, but the artist name does not link up to his artist page. (edit: forget it, it showed up... maybe it just takes some time after submitted) Alssso, all thanks for any help here. I will scan and slowly add/submit album info, the only thing is.. the tracklist/album title will be somewhat accurate, but not an entire accurate representation of what is listed, so I suppose I will leave that to you, if you will or anyone who wants to edit for a close-perfect reflection.

We are expanding our coverage to include anime albums. There are really just two things that are holding this back:

Ahh, I also was wondering what this means when I was looking のみ作曲. It was listed for someone, but I just found it strange. I have a couple music-related kanji down, but I didn't understand what のみ is adding to it.
I just remembered, too.. also to butt in with an edit, the bad thing in how I am adding tracklists it is probably a fan translation (well, it's not to english, but there could be errors. I noticed sangoku/san koku for one track), which may or may not be a huge case for most anime soundtracks (then again, same for vgm albums in japanese). It just depends who might take the time to translate them when added here who is trusted with being well versed in Japanese. I guess the good thing is those who add and have scans to provide, someone else can verify or edit, which is also my case, but up to whoever is willing to do that work.

Oh, I can't wait for it. I'd love to have my anime music collection also added to the database. I also agree that a general filter is really needed before getting started with it.
Tough, I wouldn't be able to translate anything and could only do (so-so) transliteration which is pretty sad. Well. At least, I could provide some scans. |

Interesting link, I can always try it to check.. too bad I wouldn't have the original title track to have checked, heh, but for the future, I suppose it could be useful if I add, but I may as well just post it in the forums for someone else to help. Especially with various kanji having different readings, it's best to just ask for help.
Also I appreciate having had the composer info for the rayearth soundtracks listed, so I guess I feel that adding scan requests that Myrkul bombarded me with is a small thanks, in someway. |

just to clarify, does this mean we have the "go ahead" to add anime-related releases to the database now? there's a few that i feel confident enough to add, and i could contact two or three other knowledgeable people to help out. i've noticed quite a lot of anime releases appearing, which is great. just wanna make sure i'm not jumping the gun or anything.

Even though I'm clearly in no position to say, I'm sure it's more than okay. More anime soundtracks are always good anyway, right?! Plus, Revoc and seanne are always there to help out, it seems.
Slowly, slowly.. VGMdb will surely be a great db for anime soundtracks... someday.. Just to say, I've added a few (very few, like 11, maybe) and they were more than welcomed, I'd say. I'm pretty sure there's no high priority on them being added, but they are a plus since vgm and anime soundtracks have a close relation. |

Over the weekend I'll be making some minor changes to the site and forum structure in preparation for anime albums -- our tagline and mission statement, for example. Other than that our site name and address will stay unchanged.

It will be interesting to see what kind of things the Anime Music community will want. One thing I suspect is that they'll be less inclined to filter out game music than the VGM fans are to filter out anime music. I think they might already be used to seeing game music mixed in with anime.

Well, the only reason I raised the issue was because of this tweet. As for me, I'm a fan of both and so, it's not really much of a concern for me.
Also, if this fosters the actual creation of an anime music community, all the better. To my knowledge, such an entity doesn't really exist. I've been saying that the VGM community is years ahead of the anime music community in terms of organization for some time now and I'm hoping that the database will allow the latter to play catchup.

There definitely doesn't seem to be a comprehensive database for it.. at least not that I've seen. Hopefully people pick up and help out here, though it will take a while for it to be really there.

I need the function "Edit Summary" such as Wikipedia.
Because I always feel the need to reveal the reason why I edited like this. I'm always in trouble with submitting albums from Korea because of the language. Its pronunciation is too complicated in Romanization. Korean in Latin script makes hard to write and complex to read. Also, the Korean language has two writing systems (Hangul, Hanja) except for braille and Latin script. Therefore, I have to persuade administrators, trusted editors and staffs every submission on account of texts like titles and names of artists. In addition, I removed all hyphens in the Korean texts that I romanized by myself today. Because hyphens are prescribed to be used for limited use in "Revised Romanization of Korean". https://vgmdb.net/album/91862 https://vgmdb.net/album/92095 https://vgmdb.net/album/92113 Last edited by Tunable; Oct 28, 2019 at 10:01 PM. |
