🧠Tips, Tricks, and Troubleshooting
You may see something like this when writing for an anthology
Sometimes there are a few one-shots in anthology collections that don't have titles, so just list them as Untitled, just as the database does, and write as you would for the others.
If you see an entry that has Included one-shots like this:
The main entry should be the regular average word count (around 150 words), as usual, but the included one-shots should follow the anthology format, and will only be updated in the More Info tab. However, sometimes these included one-shots are not available to read anywhere, so this is an optional process.
If the anthology you are writing for has three or more separate stories, the titles will remain on the entry page, and the synopsis will be added to the More Info section.
If there is more than one chapter for a specific story, you can merge them together like this:
However, if the anthology has less than three entries total, not including the entries that carry on the same story, you can merge them together and put Series after it.
Examples
Jekyll de Hyde na Kare and Jekyll de Hyde na Renai Jijou would be written as Jekyll de Hyde Series if there was only one other different chapter in the anthology. But since there are more than three stories total, it all gets put in More Info.
Double-check names. There are so many characters in such a short span of time, so let's be sure our individual entries are accurate.
Use the romanized title on MAL for the title of each entry.
