I've posted this in the general discussion as well, but I feel like scanlation groups who read my post will be able to help out even more:

 

I work with Cyan-Steam(Sherrif Evans Lies, Saotome-senshu, Rokudou) as their proofreader. I'm currently working on a repository of scanlators/their websites/series they're actively working on. It's almost impossible to find every active scanlator without asking around. My list does not include: non-English scanlators, inactive groups(8+ months), or any other form of translation(games/anime/LNs/etc.). 

 

This is my current spreadsheet, I've enabled it to be edited by anyone and everyone. I have a backup saved every two minutes in case someone decides to mess with it. What I need right now is the communities support in adding to this. You can save this for your own records, use it for your website, etc. I've had ideas of creating a lite website that will allow users to search for series in relation to the group that works on it and vice versa but that's still just an idea.

 

You can view an edited list of what I currently have here on reddit and the actual spreadsheet to edit right here. I know people have backed up a lot of this sites data, but what I'm looking for as I stated before is active groups, active series, etc etc.

 

I'm doing this because I love the manga community and I feel like this medium of entertainment is getting more and more popular every year. If the community could help me out a little bit it would be greatly appreciated.  Cheers.

 

Again, this spreadsheet is available to all. Save it, edit it, integrate it into your website however you like.

mangaupdates has a greasemonkey script for this.

 

If batoto allows it, I can can post a complete list from batoto. Any list is big enough that you'd have to search it anyway so inactive groups won't make much difference.


Can't get enough Isekai? Check out the Isekai list for every manga on batoto. Follow for updates.

Thank you for this. I'm doing the same thing for my favorite manga's and their scanlators. I'm already looking and adding to the list.

Looks like they're time for me to add up stuff regarding my group, even though I just made a comeback.
