These are usually the most easy creqs to make, as you generally do them if you have the file at hand, and notice that things are wrong/missing in the fileentry. It should be enough to autocreq files with [[Avdump]] in most cases. There are however some fields that is not handled when autocreqing. These are specified below. | These are usually the most easy creqs to make, as you generally do them if you have the file at hand, and notice that things are wrong/missing in the fileentry.

{{eyecatch|Warning|It is considered "bad manner" to creq fields that can be handled by avdump. You should have a very good reason for doing it.}} | |||
:If you do not know whether you have files like this or not, you should check your [[mylist reports]]. There are a number of reports made specifically for the purpose of finding missing information. | |||

#The group that released it has to have listed the official CRC. This can either be in the group's IRC-channel '''topic''', their '''website''', their '''forum''', or the '''filename''' as long as you got the file directly from the group. | #The group that released it has to have listed the official CRC.

===Source=== | |||
|When creqing this field you should provide some sort of proof unless the old value is obviously wrong or set to ''unknown''. This means that you should be sure about the change and not just base it on assumptions. | |||
{{eyecatch|Warning|Do ''not'' creq this field based on ''resolution/quality/filesize/etc.'' only.}} | |||

===Quality=== | |||
|Although there have never been any written rules; ''quality is usually bound to source''. Ie. DVD -> very high, DTV -> high, VHS -> low, etc.. It is generally ok to follow this scheme, but don't go about creqing just because of it. There are many good reasons for not following it. | |||
If you want to request a change, check the history of the file first. It might have some useful information (discussion) about why the current rating was selected and save you from a humiliating deny. | |||
{{eyecatch|Warning|This field should '''not''' be used to rate releases from different groups. Use anime-group comments/votes to express opinions about such.}} | |||
{{eyecatch|Warning|Feel free to discuss the quality system in our forum/channel, but '''never''' start a personal creqing spree to "reform" it.}} | |||

===Censored=== | |||
|If a file is censored, you should make sure this flag is set. Censored does not mean that there are bleeps instead of swear-words, it means that genitalia or extreme guro is mosaiced/blurred out. | |||
