Thank you. I suppose there’s no way to retrieve lost reviews, right?
No, not really. I could try to scour through past database saves for reviews with comments, but there’s no way to tell if they were legitimate deletions or not.
If someone thinks they’ve lost reviews let me know and I may be able to find them for you… but going through in a general way would be really hard and time intensive.
You could certainly make a case for logging all changes to reviews, but I haven’t done that.
There may be more, but two reviews I’m positive I’ve lost are of these two books:
I got this today on ダイヤのA 2 | L25
It shows the gradings on vol 1, but not 2 onward (or at least 2-7; I didn’t check beyond that). I checked later volumes of a handful of other series, but they all worked fine.
Update 10/31: It’s doing it on 夏目友人帳 2 | L27 and onward now too. Don’t remember if that was one of the ones I checked yesterday or not, though.
I know that people already complained about the choices of stuff being compared, but that one is a bit wild
Level 52 novel versus level 25 manga…
Ah, I didn’t think about this use case .
Basically, I’m prompting all comparisons between items where we have ‘no clue’ (i.e. no range on it). However, that set of ‘no clue’ does include items where we only have a ‘bottom’ range.
Also, I would assume that i’d prompt you to grade that level 25 item against things around level 25 first which you should have many of… so there’s a prioritization issue there as well, hmm.
When data export finally happens this, it will be easier to recover, because you could always have a backup of your library backup in an csv/xml/xls file, so maybe throwing in a reviews export would be handy too.
Granted a vast majority won’t be exporting the data, but I like to keep a copy of some services at hand, just in case.
Tags are here! At least, only for books. As I said, this is only a v1 to quickly get things into your hands, i’ll continue working on this for the next week.
Things to note
- This is essentially a copy of Anilist and the prepopulated options for genres & content tags are from there
- Search filters has not yet been implemented. Movie & TV has not yet been implemented
- By default, when you add a genre or content tag it opts in to adding it as a series tag (if a series exists), but you can uncheck this option
- Any tag you can click and vote on, indicating if you think it’s a main / major / minor / not relevant element to the story. The percentage is simply a weighted average score… where ‘main’ = 100%, not relevant = 0%, major = 75, minor = 25
- Spoiler tag options exist when creating, but do not have any report if you think an existing tag should be marked spoiler
- AniList has a lot of NSFW tags. NSFW handling probably needs to be handle within this bucket of work
In general, since these are AniList tags, there’s no focus on language learning. I think i’ll probaby quickly add an ‘Accents’ and / or ‘Language’ tags section pretty quick. Pacing / mood tags similar to Story Graph will require different handling, but also on the agenda.
All in all, exciting times! Come join the discussion in the newly created Tags, Tags, Tags [Official Management] thread!
I noticed today that despite the page acting like there’s something to scroll horizontally on mobile, the one thing you’d expect to be able to scroll doesn’t actually:
Especially with tags now, I think you should actually be able to scroll the headings list so you can jump straight to the bottom sections too.
Actually, “Tags” should be between “Gradings” and “Activity,” but it’s not there at all. Still stands, though.
Hmm… I can scroll horizontally on mobile. What’s your browser & OS?
Agreed. I do intend to do that
I’m on iOS 16.6 on Safari
Update: Since the headings list is supposed to scroll, I tried again a few times in case I was just fat-fingering it, but no dice. All it does is move the whole page over, cut-off headings and all, even when my finger is definitely smack dab on top of it
In other news - I know some parts of the website have been slow the past hour or two. I’ll try to diagnose tomorrow.
Could it just be all the people adding tags at the same time?
That’s been the case for me as well, for a long time. Android 13 & new-ish Chrome. I never said anything bc Activity is the only one that’s cut off, and it’s the last section anyway
Can’t see aggregate gradings for https://learnnatively.com/book/b26291e5b3/.
(Also that link isn’t formatting)
Noted
So, I have a suspicion that these formatting issues are because of the slow initial speed on book pages right now… which I’m in the process of fixing. TBH, it looks like we’ve been having these issues for a while now, which I think has been contributing to the link formatting flakiness. We’ll see!
VOLUNTEER OPENING - I’m looking for 1-2 volunteers to help manage tags!
As you can already see, tag management can be quite complicated and I think it’d be a massive help if a few of you are interested! Your duties would be focused on approving tags, editing tags, deleting / re-assinging duplicate tags. Let me know in a personal dm or comment below! It’d be a massive help and you’d really help tags moving forward.
Ok this is fixed! I’ve also improved the page performance of quite a few things (search, book pages, others…) so hopefully nothing is painfully slow.
Also auto formatting might be working better now with the faster pages? Still might be spotty… we’ll see. Remember there’s a day old cache on the link formatter too. Ex formatter: 本好きの下剋上~司書になるためには手段を選んでいられません~第一部「兵士の娘2」 | L30
What this? Did I miss a new feature?
Probably data admin features?
