Does this mean that these boxes there you select an album from a dropdown box and then the tracklist and other information about the album is shown, isn't allowed anymore?

And if this is the case,

How many albums is "lots of albums"?

Duki3003:
This rule will mainly apply on anime/manga descriptions.
OSTs are not covered by it for the most part...

CrystalKaeru:
Yokatta. :D
For one second there I thought that I needed to completely rewrite the description for a torrent I'm going to offer.

When I wrote this, I was thinking that the usual OST+OP+ED offers should be compact enough to not require tracklist-hiding. Anything longer than that can probably justify the use of dropdown-lists, show/hide buttons or album-selector menus. I am also of the opinion that OP/ED tracklists are really too short to need any hiding, and I will advocate it only for OSTs or albums with more than 4 tracks.

This is just from my point of view, so other staff members who look at offers might have their own ideas on certain offers.

Of course, the final aim is always to make things easy for the reader, so don't go putting tracklist-hiders if you already have an album selector menu in place, lol.

Like the rules. Was a bit scared though, as I planned on redoing my two Aria music collections in the same format as my Aria Drama Collection so that more Album information can be presented when viewing each album, but not have to feel like you are scrolling 30 pages down to see all of it, or to get to the stats/comments section.

As for all the other offers I have (and future offers of small size) where it's just OP/ED/OST or a few more albums, simple is good  ;D
