Bug: Ratings don't match

My dashboard profile header shows that I rated 119 books and finished 120:

but when I check my list of the 120 books I read, I can see that I did not rate 5 of them (this is the end of the list, sorted by rating descending):

I also checked the other book groups (owned, stopped, …) to see whether I maybe rated a book before finishing it, but to no avail…
What’s going on here?

(Also, regarding sorting by rating: If the unrated books come last when ordering by rating descending, I would expect them to come first when ordering by rating ascending… i.e. I’m expecting a complete mirror of the list.)

I found the 4 missing ratings. It’s not just book ratings but book+ audiovisual and you have rated exactly 4 videos.

Oh wow! I did not even remember I added videos to Natively :rofl:

Ok so to continue with this bug report, in that case Natively should also add videos to the dashboard profile header, I think. I know that I watched these videos with non-Japanese subs, so they don’t count as „properly watched“ but still… maybe they should be listed separately, just to avoid this kind of confusion?

Well I was gonna say that desktop lists everything on your profile, but it looks like you are actually on desktop? I wonder why it doesn’t show videos, then. (Mobile used to have everything too, but there were spacing issues on narrower screens, and instead of fixing them, Brandon just removed half of it. Which is why I assumed. Also I overlooked that your screenshot of the unrated books is clearly from the desktop site lol)

If it doesn’t include them just because they’re not no-sub or same-language-sub, that’s kind of misleading? It should either include them or not include their ratings and reviews in the count.

Agreed as well that unrated (0 stars) should come before 1 stars when sorted by rating ascending.

(Also, that’s your profile and profile header, not dashboard. The dashboard is the homepage with the feed and currently-read/watching, etc.)

since I already have them, profile header comparison

Yes, I am on desktop. :thinking: I probably don’t have any videos that qualify as “finished”, that’s why nothing shows up.

I think it is sort of consistent because one can rate unfinished things (which then counts toward the total “rated” number but not towards the total “finished” number) so if those movies are not considered “finished” because I watched them with English subs, they would count towards the “rated” number but would not display as “finished”.
But I agree that it’s confusing (that’s basically why this thread exists :laughing:)

Ah, thanks for the explanation! I never know how to name these things, sorry :crazy_face:

Do they show up under the “Finished” status in your library? If so, they absolutely should count toward your “Watched” count in your profile. After all, watching with different-language subs just means that you can’t grade it, and you can’t grade textbooks either but they still count toward your “Read” count.

If they get a different status, then not including them in the count would make sense to me, but finished is finished, regardless of subs.

You mean like “finished” for books? No, they don’t; the My Videos page looks like this:

Huh. And yet there’s no distinction between no subs and JP subs except for a little box below the cover image that says either “audio” or “subs.” Okay then.

On the one hand, it makes sense now why they’re not counted, but on the other hand… watched is watched.
