    Hello,

    I just have a little question. Who is this bad girl, that removes yaoi tags from novels? It's already second one that I found! (The Reborn Otaku’s Code of Practice for the Apocalypse). Wtf?! Stop it!

    I dont read yaoi novels but it has shounen AI in it already. A novel in most cases can either be only yaoi or shounen ai except for special cases. Yaoi if contains more mature content. I'm not expert ask @LaDyViL

    Edit:same principal applies to yuri and shoujou ai

    Make sure you know exactly what the tag is for; yaoi and shounen ai are slightly different and if you're not a BL fan you should just exclude both and leave figuring out which is which to the experts.

    *smh* there's a shounen ai tag, if a BL novel doesn't have an explicit sex scene, its not yaoi, so there's no yaoi tag. *facepalm*

    This was closed yesterday before I got to it, so I refrained from answering.
    Reborn Otaku has no explicit sex scenes between two males afaik. Therefore, the Yaoi genre has been removed and locked so users won't incorrectly edit them as this novel stays Shounen Ai until the end.

    Thrive in Catastrophe has explicit sex scenes between two males in its later half of the story iinm Chapter 76. Therefore I have add back Yaoi genre to it and locked so unknowing users won't remove it in the future. This might be caused due to the lack of foreknowledge regarding future chapters or because the translation has not reached that part yet.

    There is no Bad Girl/Guy here. It's just a misunderstanding due to lacking information on future plot. Please do not edit or change the details on NU without a legit information to back it up or influenced by your/others beliefs.

    Thank you.

    @Vvibulo I summon you here to read why you can't add Yaoi tags on certain stories.
