Lists discussion

I’ll probably add it after the level tag, but sure makes sense.

Interesting… good catch

Interesting

All these & your subsequent suggestions are absolutely on my mind. I was mostly just waiting until we had a sizeable list selection where it made sense to do.

Yeah I need to do this for general search as well :tired_face:

Interesting thought

Ah good call

FWIW, to you all here, I know there’s a massive amount of things we can do with lists that will be really cool. I can’t say I’ll focus on it all now and with the number of these suggestions, quite of few of them will get lost in the noise :sweat_smile:

It will just have to be an iterative process and many of these things will grow in priority lists grow in length and in number.

Considering you mentioned it twice, it must be really interesting :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m just teasing.

I was also quite impressed by that :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::rofl:

The BL club will provide a large quantity of lists to meet that criteria, no worries. o7

Ah, with the anime link and talk, I had figured it was just anime.

award winning manga to boot :wink:

Small question: for 北海道 you add 道, but e.g. for 山梨県 you don’t add 県. Why not add their type for all 都道府県?

2 Likes

because 北海道 is the only 道 left
there used to be others but now they turned into 県/都/府 type prefectures and Hokkaido is the only one left as is

has to do with the history in governmental and territorial management etc

No, it was a more direct question to @DIO-Berry as to why they wrote 北海道 but everything else without the 都道府県 marker (e.g., 東京, 京都,…)
For consistency, it would make sense to write 東京都, 京都府, etc instead.

@DIO-Berry I have a suggestion for the “Manga for each Prefecture” list: しまなみ誰そ彼 is set in Onomichi in Hiroshima prefecture. It has a lot of beautiful scenery and little tidbits about local foods and places that made me want to visit when I was reading it!

Because 北海道 is the only one that isn’t shortened to 北海 anywhere I’ve heard in daily conversation. All other prefectures I only hear 県 added to if people want to specify that they didn’t go to a capital city of the same name. Like 先週福岡県に行きました。(went to places other than Fukuoka City)

I’m also tempted to see if I can find a questionnaire with all the prefectures. I want to say that I only see 県 written on ones for mailing specifically :thinking:

Nice, thanks! I’ll add it. For some reason I had thought it was a ln.

It would be nice if there were options to easily see the following on the lists page :

  • my lists (creator or collaborator)
  • my created lists (public & private)
  • my public lists
  • my private lists
  • my saved lists

ETA: I’m getting the server issues page when trying to access https://learnnatively.com/list/1a6d0236fe/. It’s set to public afaik and appears on the list page. Tried refresh, but no luck. :thinking:

Ah, I finally figure out these server issues! I wasn’t properly handling merging of books / deletion of books with the new list items… so those list items were pointing at deleted things which caused errors.

I know you’ve been having server issues sometimes with lists. If there are other server issues outside this one you’ve been experiencing, or that you do experiece, let me know!

Also @araigoshi, one of the issues was your WK Absolute Beginner nominations list. Somehow, Crystal Hunters got added to the platform and I had to delete that, causing the issue. I’m not sure if you were one of the ones that got an email, but for more info on why, please see my blog post..

Crystal Hunters will be auto blocked in the future.

Are you talking about in the list search or your profile ‘lists’?

If it’s the list search, I was imagining that’s more for list discovery, rather than personal list management. My goal is to have the default view be ‘swimlanes’ of lists more like:

  • Trending Lists
  • Popular Lists
  • Lists from people you follow
  • Recently Added Lists
  • Recently Updated Lists

This view would be wiped once you applied any filters. Like the AniList search I keep going on about :joy:

Yay, thank you! Hopefully it’s solved, but I’ll let you know if it happens again. :smile:

I was thinking about the list search, but it would be useful in your profile, too. It seems like a given that there should be a way to see your own lists if you visit list search, even if it’s just a direct link to that part of your profile.

I like that :slight_smile:

i’m not entirely sure we need something more for your profile view (all that separation you’re describing). At least, not until people get a lot more lists?

Yeah, it’s probably not necessary at the moment, but I can see it being useful in the future.
(Has 20+ list ideas just waiting to be implemented… :rofl: )


ETA: Can we have some sort of history for changes made to lists (for those with collaborators)? Something like discourse has for wiki posts?

Would it also be possible to have the wishlist (+ etc) button so you can add directly from the list as opposed to visiting each item page? Like Goodreads, for example:

This may have just been a glitch, but when I went to edit a list, the numbering started from 2 (it corrected itself after a different item’s position changed).

Not a big deal since items aren’t numbered on the list itself, but maybe displaying the numbers would be a useful option for some lists?

Why does this list

just show the first of eleven entries? Are the others blocked? Is it a bug?

I can see all the manga in the list
