MDL's 2025 Challenge FAQ and Discussion

 JulyMoon:

Hm, I have doubts on that since the MDL Watch Challenge for this year was prepared last year, before Singapore was added to the database, but wait for an official answer to this. 

Adding anime to MyDRAMAlist makes no sense to me, because there's already MyAnimeList, which is a site like MDL especially for Manga and Anime. That makes it pointless in my opinion when MDL is including anime as well. 

I'm absolutely supporting the idea of adding more Asian countries though. India would also be wonderful to have. 

India also has plenty of databases like on imdb, wikipedia, etc. It would be better to add countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, whose titles aren't as well known perhaps.

I think I got lost here, but if the vischan is moving and someone is looking out it counts. 

As for spys secret agents,  historical context works too. 

As for hide and seek are they playing and somone is looking the other hiding go for it. 

 JulyMoon:

I agree with the other countries but IMDB is not exclusive to Asian shows like MDL is. Wikipedia is an online encyclopaedia so can hardly be compared to MDL. I just think a site like MDL should include all/or at least the most common Asian countries and not just a selection of them. 

Do you know how many countries there are in Asia? You also have to consider how much hosting space that would require. It doesn't matter if imdb is not exclusive, it has a good database as does wikipedia which many other Asian countries do not get. So it makes sense to first provide something that doesn't already exist.

Yes yes yes!!! Thank you so much 😄
