Purpose

Suggestions for usability improvements of the AniDB web interface.

Grouping pages together with tabs

The idea is to group similar pages together using tabs, allowing a smoother experience and bringing obscure features from the dark corners they lurk in.

Example of some groupings:

Pros

Makes some otherwise obscure features accessible in an easy way

Cons

Disables the possibility of utilizing tabs in other ways on those pages. Such as My Wishlist currently does.
