• @RPI2026F1, Laftp0:  Done: Kitsu manga ID (P11494) and Kitsu anime ID (P11495). Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 19:22, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

  @RPI2026F1: @Laftp0: I discovered that these properties use strings (e.g. spy-x-family) when Kitsu also supports numeric IDs (e.g. 54448). Since the properties aren't used very much yet, could we potentially restrict it to numeric identifiers? I'd be concerned about kitsu anime/manga names changing and causing churn in the identifiers, which is a common problem with video game properties. This is also the format that MangaDex exposes for Kitsu IDs, fwiw. Nicereddy (talk) 02:02, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

  It looks better! I agree to change. Laftp0 (talk) 02:15, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

  I figured out how to convert slugs to numeric IDs:

  Make a request to https://kitsu.io/api/edge/manga?fields%5Bcategories%5D=slug%2Ctitle&filter%5Bslug%5D=<alug>&include=categories and access .data[0].id. For example https://kitsu.io/api/edge/manga?fields%5Bcategories%5D=slug%2Ctitle&filter%5Bslug%5D=spy-x-family&include=categories gives us 54448 as expected. RPI2026F1 (talk) 03:16, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

  Can I replace the id values? Laftp0 (talk) 12:27, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

  I'm going to code the import bot to automatically take care of this. RPI2026F1 (talk) 13:27, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

  Thanks I change the constraint for now. Laftp0 (talk) 13:38, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
