"Micro Comic" or "One Page Comic" tag? :rejected:

[KiTA]

A new tag for the Format field -- "One Page At a Time" or "Micro Comic"? For stuff like "The Otaku will Date the Gal in 100 days" or "The Gang Leader Who I Thought Was a Boy Is Actually a Girl" which are 1-3 page, often daily, web manga?

Why? I can somehow understand "4-koma" tag but 1-page?

What next? "Standard chapter" (aka 20 pages per chapter) tag? "Long chapter" (30 pages) tag? "Super long chapter" (40 pages)? "Short chapter" (5-10 pages)?

That makes no sense IMO.

> web manga

But there's already tag for this - "Web Comic". If for some reason it wasn't tagged properly that's another question.

Well, yeah. I mean, what else do you call stuff like...

https://mangadex.org/title/47398/a-kind-world

This? Where each chapter is 1-2 pages.

Or these, where each chapter is usually just 1 page:
https://mangadex.org/title/44625/this-croc-will-die-in-100-days
https://mangadex.org/title/46520/these-two-will-be-married-in-100-days
https://mangadex.org/title/46541/this-gyaru-will-date-the-otaku-in-100-days

Even if you don't think the 100 days meme comics count, what about stuff like Wonder Cat Kyuu-chan?

Every so often you see people complaining in the comments about these types of 1-2 page per-chapter comics, I just thought a format flag for them would be nice.

Probably not, seems odd to have a tag indicating one page format and not having a tag that indicates... well, not one page formatted length series

@AbyssalMonkey 4koma is one of the most popular formats in Japan, completely deserving of having a tag. Long strip is an actual feature that forces long strip mode onto people's reader so they don't have to change the setting themselves

Having tags strictly for length is just an indicator thing, would be better fit by counting the number of pages in a chapter and having it displayed. If we ever did that. But we likely won't anytime soon
