Anyway this, Sono Otoko and Kazeoh aren't games or anime, looking at 'publication', are they manga, light novels or something? I'm really not familiar with these titles and not in the mood to do the searching at the moment, that's why I ask. However, if there is no game/anime connection, that leaves artists. As Cedille already said in the other thread, is Seikou Nagaoka mainly associated with game/anime music or not? If he isn't then why should we accept these non-related works? Not to mention the entries are very empty...

I didn't edit further because I don't know if those albums will be kept just because nagaoka is implied
and I used publication because those albums are comics image albums only released for paper works (comics novels etc.)
my guin saga submissions (for gs comics) had been deactivated, so those ones could be

On Phonographs note, is why I made it publication as well. Since its not in animation form. My guess is that these albums were made in an attempt to launch interest in the respective manga works. Ah! My Goddess got picked up right after the image album. However, the rest are left in the dark. The reason I started putting these up, is because I seen Kenji Kawai's Mech-30011. So then I started filling in the rest of the Mech series.

I don't mind keeping these albums if Phonograph or someone wants to fix them up. Technically, we can cover manga image albums as part of "Visual Arts", and I think there is value in it.

However, I want to be clear on this. Anime and game are our core coverages, so that's where our staff and editors have the most expertise and interest. I don't think it is fair to ask them to fix up a bunch of incomplete album submissions every day in areas outside their interest. We'll accept peripheral music from submitters who are subject-matter experts and who are good at providing the album details, but we have reserved the right to reject the same albums when submitted by someone who leaves too many of the details for someone else to finish. I'd rather people work on the important albums rather than burning themselves out on these.

Also, we have standards for what make a good entry. If I wanted to just fill in all the missing numbers in a catalog series, I'd write a Python script to scrape the universe. We want to do a better job than that, and present complete entries with researched accurate information.

I realize there are two copies of these entries. The only difference is by the Series in the album name between the two. I'll leave it up to you to delete one...
