Motivation[edit]

I'd like this property because AniList is a fairly prominent, comprehensive website that covers most anime and manga series'. And I think it'd be a good step toward improving Wikidata's coverage of anime content. Nicereddy (talk) 05:05, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

Also I should mention that there's a GraphQL API that can be used to list all anime records on the website, e.g. this query. Nicereddy (talk) 05:08, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
