Fan-Made live action is not professionally produced and is not allowed in AniDB. If there are some live action scenes that are incorporated into an anime that otherwise meets the requirements and when looked at as a whole they can still be considered animated, they may be anime. Check the forum before adding anything like this. Examples are D.C.~Da Capo~ and Hanaukyo Maids.

you got banned to prevent you of possible adding more shit. on various occasions in the past tards added simpsons, family guy and heck knows what. as a basic rule people who add such stuff get a-banned.

anyway i unbanned you. have a look at our "anime" definition before you add stuff in the future.

That section really needs to be edited. Whether it's a professional production or not doesn't matter if it's not animated and doesn't qualify as one of the exceptions.

it's a wiki yo. go edit it yourself

@Der Idiot: Thanks that you have unbanned me, and i will don't do such things anymore in the future.

I'm not a mod, so unless you really want me setting anidb policy...

Yes, actually, we do.

And anyway, your suggested change is just to clarify the not-very-good-english. For any *really* controversial changes you thing should be made, you can propose it on the talk page first, if you're feeling scared.

It's not a matter of clarification at all. Anyway, if I were to edit it I'd kill all the exceptions.

Yes, then someone else might edit them back in, perhaps justified a little better. Wikiprocess. Fact is we don't do live-action stuffs, if the wiki isn't saying that very well, then obviously you editing it to make it clearer is a good thing.

I'm not a mod either, and I more or less wrote the original draft. I also believe that pelican knows more about Anime than I do... What I wrote was a compromise at the time between the existing mods/documentation writers. It wasn't a masterpiece, but it was a workable document at the time when we didn't have anything. Feel free to hack away, but if you make radical changes you need to expect that people will disagree. As far as the exceptions section, I felt that it was necessary to clarify and demonstrate what was OK in some of the gray areas. At the time people would keep bringing up those and that would more or less just be a place where we could point them for the info. Later on though there was a thread for animes to delete, so that made it a little bit redundant.

I like to think that anidb doesn't have mods, just exp and a bunch of pet monkeys. Anyway, the borders of this are fluid, obviously there's not going to be a complete-and-perfect state, egg need not feel his contribution is in any way inadequate, just 'cos stuff changes.

Actually I felt it needed more contributions when I posted it. I eventually did because people failed to say there was anything wrong with it... Edit away.
