If you don't like it, you don't have to click on it. It's really that simple. If everyone wrote an article about every upcoming drama, i'd be happy and users could find out about their favorite actors potentially starring in new shows much faster.
Love the new design--great job, guys! And yay for screenwriter/director possibility! I get tired of checking asianwiki…
Yes, if the actor or director or screenwriter isn't in the database, you'd need to first add them via the Add Person button ( http://mydramalist.com/add/person ). However, while you're adding the new person, you can also fill their roles on that same page. You don't need to go to each individual title and add them like that. You can do all the Director roles or screenwriter or actor roles from the Add Person page.
