A "Default" Author's Note

Add a dropped and finished reading list

Introduce a way for authors to give announcements too their readers without them making a chapter that could mess up bookmark progress if you just want to read the announcement without being up to date with the book.
Basically introduce a type of chapter (or a separate place) where authors can make announcements about their book, many authors do this currently by making a chapter called announcement/important and generally it pertains to the future of the book (something like “don’t worry if I don’t post I’m not dropping but I’ll be out of state for a few days” etc.) currently unless the placeholder is made to also detect jumps of more than one chapter forward this can screw up where you are in a book if you just want to find out what’s up on a book that you haven’t been keeping up to date on. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve clicked on a announcement chapter from the bookmarks tab on a book I’m not caught up on only to never go back because I can’t find my place.

The ability to arrange Read Later
I think it could be useful to have an ordering feature on Read Later so that it is easier to find novels in it months after having added them to the list. These lists can be large and so I think an system which can order the read later section similar to the Advanced Search criteria would be useful. In particular:
- The Status of Complete, Ongoing or Hiatus.
- The Order By Functions; Last Update, Release Date, No. Pages and Popularity
- Genre Selection - Although this might be a bit clunky in the form it is
These would enable people to use Read Later as more than just a jumbled pile of books which you thought the covers looked interesting and would allow users to use Read Later as a way to keep track of Fictions they weren't ready to read/bookmark straight away, giving the option to wait until a books completion before reading it or alternatively not putting the time into books which have been on hiatus for the last 4 years.
(Downside is that it could potentially promote a culture of waiting to see if a novel flourishes before interacting with it which may reduce the views new fictions get. I might be overthinking though)

Add a Read option for when you finish books

Adding a "Finished Novels" List for Novels Like in the "Follow List"
Right now, we only have "Follow", "Favorite", and "Read Later", lists but no "Finished" lists for novels. Currently, all the novels that I've finished reading are simply sitting at the bottom of my "Follow" list and are just adding to the time it takes to scroll all the way to the bottom of the list.
I don't want to place every single novel I've finished into the "Favorite" list because that should be reserved for only novels that I consider my favorite novels.
So, my suggestion is to add a list where you can move novels to after you're done reading the entire novel. To make sure a reader doesn't miss any updates from a novel in that list, any novels within that "Finished" list will be moved back to the "Follow List" where they can read the update and move it back to the "Finished" list in case it's not an announcement for future chapters.
This new List can be added to the Statistics if people think it's a good idea to do so.

Sort comments by popular, oldest, newest
Author's be able to answer on review

Do not remove deleted fictions from follow / favorites / read later

Collaboration features

Add filtering for "not interested" to Advanced Search
If someone decided they don't want to read a story by clicking "not interested", they almost certainly don't want to see that story show up in a search. Or at the very least they should be able to specify whether to ignore such stories in any given advanced search.

Glossary/Fandom
The idea is simple. Add a glossary next to the table of content where readers can check the names of major organizations, how certain characters look, what is their personality. Basically, stuff that would help both new and old readers keep up with the story, especially when the latter becomes bigger and bigger.


way to access "not interested" list
pretty sure i accidentally clicked not interested on mobile layout more than once and now i do not remember what story i cant see anymore...
way to access not interested list with chance to remove the tag would be awesome.

Show the STUB, HIATUS, etc. Status Tags in Search Results

comment sorting
I believe it'd enhance the general experience on the website to have comments be sortable in different ways. I suggest:
- Chronological (current)
- Reputation (all time)
- Reputation (weighted)
- Responses (general)
- Responses (author)
This would promote reader discussion and would drive engagement on the site.
The default setting should be controllable by the author and (maybe) overridable by the reader.
Projected issues and possible solutions:
- Sorted by reputation would have successful comments gain more and more (and more still) points. -- Solution: Introduce a hard cap on the amount of reputation a single comment can earn. (Or a hidden hard cap on how much a single comment can contribute to levels.)
- It might improve the system to a degree large enough to change the experience overall.

I would love it if readers had a way to quickly rate individual chapters without having to rate the whole story.
I posted this on the forum yesterday and was given advice to post it here.
Maybe it's something that a thumbs-up or thumbs-down system, it would be extremely helpful as both a reader and a writer on the site.
As a writer, it would help me know when a chapter isn't well-liked even without readers having to put in the effort to write comments, all they would have to do is simply click the button it also would help me know when I'm improving. As not all readers will comment, but many would press a like or dislike button if they saw it.
As a reader it would be nice to express that I really like or dislike a chapter without having to review the whole fiction or write a comment, I may just dislike a chapter but not enough to leave a comment about it.
It gives authors even more information about what their doing wrong or right with something to watch other than views and follows, something specific to the new chapter.
(and also a feeling of validation)
A like could also replace the normal thanks for the chapter comment. I don't know it's just an idea
They definitely shouldn't affect ratings or visibility at all and just be a tool for feedback, so people like honestly and not just to support new writers and authors don't end up begging for likes

Let me see suggested edits while I'm in edit mode.

Be able to delete history
I use the history page to continue what I read but there are some fictions which i don't want to see after reading the first couple of chapters if possible I would like to have an delete option because the Not interested button doesn't help me with that

MIGRATED: Half Star Ratings Suggest Reviews
I understand why it can't be required that people write reviews if they do half star ratings, but can it be made so that it suggests that you leave a review, possibly redirecting to another page like if you do an advanced review with too few words, but you can deny it. It would potentially be able to either guilt them into explaining it or removing their review if they don't really know what the book is like or if they are just being haters
