2012/12/12 | 2,094 | 8,875 | <issue_start>username_0: Better read as: **Sticking to Canon Questions.**
Suppose that an anime has a manga correspondent to it too, and the anime has a fair amount of filler that builds up season after season. Some fans of the manga whom also watch the anime may not wish to be bothered with all of the filler, and wis... |
2012/12/12 | 806 | 3,336 | <issue_start>username_0: The main motivation here is [this question](https://anime.stackexchange.com/q/156/20) asking where to find a list of currently airing anime, including date and time. It can be seen as a polling question (well, really, it is) and might come a cross as subjective, as there may be multiple valid a... |
2012/12/12 | 678 | 2,622 | <issue_start>username_0: Since just "ending" can have both meanings, we should differentiate questions about the actual anime ending (maybe tag with [plot](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/plot "show questions tagged 'plot'")?) and the ending song / theme / ED ([ending-song](https://anime.stackexchange.... |

2012/12/12 | 359 | 1,432 | <issue_start>username_0: I think we should include a faq on how to use the spoiler markup in the faq or somewhere more accessible for new users, as anime contains a lot of spoilers and many new users don't use the advanced help link when creating a question.
Just looking for a better way to inform users about the mark... |
2012/12/12 | 740 | 2,698 | <issue_start>username_0: We really need to agree on this one early on. What do we do with questions who by nature are spoilers? I mean, not part of the question, but the entire question.
For instance, asking about a character who's identity is only revealed later in the manga (but not the anime). Even the question's t... |
2012/12/12 | 773 | 3,031 | <issue_start>username_0: I think we need a tag for questions about differences between anime/manga versions and even TV series/movie versions.

2012/12/12 | 1,646 | 6,947 | <issue_start>username_0: People might want to ask about anime / manga which are similar in style / story to the one they just watched or liked. Should they be closed as "not constructive", since they are by-nature were preference-based and you can't objectively say which anime is truly similar to which other one? There... |

2012/12/13 | 1,027 | 4,229 | <issue_start>username_0: Some questions may require a clarification that the OP wants an answer related to only the manga, or only the anime. This can be useful in cases when manga and anime plots are slightly (or not slightly) different.
