+This feature allows you to
-If you have a list of [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]], they can be added to your [[mylist|anime list]] or be identified in a batch operation.
+:*(mass)add files to your [[mylist]]
+:*(mass)identify files for which you only have an [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k-link]]
-Make sure that you're logged in and then select [[ed2kdump]] from the [[main menu|menu]] on the left.  Copy the text links into the text box and press either the "ADD" or "IDENTIFY" submit button.
+{{eyecatch|Note:|For using this feature you need to generate [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k-links]] first.}}
-If you are adding to your list, you may specify [[mylist:watched|watched status]], [[filestates|file state]], [[mylist:source|source]], [[mylist:storage|storage]] and a [[mylist:comment|comment]] to be applied or attached to all files in the operation.
+==Adding files to your [[mylist]]==
+Make sure that you're logged in and then select [[ed2kdump]] from the [[main|menu]] on the left. Copy the text links into the text box (50 at most at the same time!)
-Text other than [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]] is ignored, so you can copy the source of HTML pages which contain [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]] in the href attribute of &lt;a&gt; elements, or the like.
+Before pressing <b>ADD</b> you may want to specify [[mylist:watched|watched status]], [[filestates|file state]], [[mylist:source|source]], [[mylist:storage|storage]] or a [[mylist:comment|comment]], which will get added to all files in the operation.
+{{eyecatch|Note:|Any text other than [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]] will get ignored. So you can copy the source of HTML pages which contain [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]] in the href attribute of &lt;a&gt; elements, or the like.}}
-On the next page it shows a list of all the files whose [[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k links]] with [[file id|fid]] (which acts as a link into the database), [[CRC status]], an automatically generated AniDB [[automatic filenames|filename]] and the current or resulting state of the file in your [[mylist|anime list]], or just the ed2k link provided if it was not found in the database.
+==Identifying Files==
+This works analog to adding files with the difference you don't have to set any options. Just copy the text links into the text box (50 at most at the same time!) and click <b>IDENTIFY</b>
-If one or more files were not found, you should consider [[adding your files to AniDB]] (unless you have personally corrupted the files).
+==Status Report==
+After you have clicked <b>ADD</b> or <b>IDENTIFY</b> a new page will load, which will show a list of all the files used in the previous operation. Furthermore various other info about the links you used will get displayed:
+:*<b>state</b>
+::*<i>added</i> - the file was added to your [[mylist]]
+::*<i>already in list</i> - the file was already in your [[mylist]]
+::*<i>not in list</i> - the file iss in your [[mylist]]
+::*<i>file in list</i> - the file is not in your [[mylist]]
+::*<i>unknown file</i> - the file is unknown to AniDB. Your file is either [[Files:CRC-verified_files|corrupted]] or just not added to AniDB. In the later case consider [[How_to_add/remove:_Files|adding it to the DB]].
+:*<b>[[ID:fid|fid]]</b>
+:*<b>[[Files:CRC-verified files|crc status]]</b>
+::*<i>valid</i> - the file matches the crc the group provided. meaning it's 100% ok.
+::*<i>unknown</i> - the crc of the file might be right, but might also be wrong. The [[fileentries|fileentry]] is missing a confirmation if the crc is valid or not.
+::*<i>invalid</i> - the file does NOT match the crc the group provided. This might just be a bitflip (minor error in the file, which is not visible), but might also be majorcorruption, which makes the file unwatchable.
+:*<b>[[anidb:ed2k-links|ed2k link]]</b> with an automatically generated AniDB filename
