for a while a korean kept up this side:
---> starme.tistory.com/2239
(just as an example for January 2013, in korean)

Slightly off-topic, but if there were an English wiki or wikia for JAV performers I would be a major fan and can contribute quite a lot.

IMHO Wikia would be ideal EXCEPT for their Term of Use that bans pornographic content. In general I haven't found any non-commercial or few web publishing sites that allows adult contents. Well yes I know Blogger/Blogspot allows adult contents. But blog format is poor for what I have in mind. Anyway I think Google (owner of blogger) is evil and I would not want to be a owner/contributor for a blogger blog on adult content.

Oh yes I know about http://sougouwiki.com/, but I doubt we would be welcome to contribute English contents to it or its host (http://wiki.seesaa.jp/).

And about how I would contribute: I can write scrapper (based on my scrapper for XBMC) that (1) mass-grab data from JAVZOO (which I suspect gets its data from scrapping DMM) and (2) capture daily/weekly new vids/DVDs and basically have a live-update of each performer's filmography.

Doesn't that fit into this topic ?

Certainly it's related, but actually it fits better here than there. The database provide some data for the wiki, but the wiki should certainly be more than a JAV database. As most of us know, there are plenty of JAV release sites (including Akiba, although we are more of a community) in English. But we lack an actress-centric website where we can find and share info and updates on the actresses (and even a few of the actors, if there's interest). And I like the Wikia approach to presenting info about a genre of arts and entertainment (e.g. Wookiepedia). In addition to filmography, we should have vital stats, career details (contract/studio) and brief bio (based on availability of course). There might also be room for some user-contributed review/commentary/opinion piece in addition to hard objective data. For example, we could add info/speculation/debate on various actress's boobs being real or fake.

My fav JAV data site is javzoo.com which (I think) get most of their data from DMM. javzoo provides mainly JAV release data but it also has the most basic vital stats (face pix, measurements, birthday and importantly reliable English names) for many actresses. So if I (or someone) would only spend a couple days coding we can instantly generate wiki pages for hundreds of JAV actress with vital stats and filmograpy. The data is not, presumably, complete, but it will be a damn good start we can throw out there on day 1. Then any contributor could manually add data obtained from other source such as Wikipedia.

Actually the DMM ranking would be a reasonably attractive and usable home page for the whole wiki. Imagine if the site could run for a few years we can even track each actress's rise and fall in the monthly ranking and place that data in parallel with her filmography.

I've inspected the webpages of DMM monthly ranking, it's quite easy to mine data from them, with the caveat that DMM is annoying to access from my region (to say the least). BTW instead of going to google.jp why not just directly access these links?

DMM ranking 1-20
DMM ranking 21-40

...

DMM ranking 1-20
DMM ranking 21-40
...because in my country (and other countries),
(or with) my provider
that leads to
---> http://www.dmm.co.jp/en/top/-/error/area/

...
if anybody has problems browsing dmm.co.jp (like me, with the direct method) -
don't use strange proxy sh*te sites, extensions or apps
- simply do it like this:

1. go to google.co.jp (=for better results)
2. search for those terms:
dmm dvd ranking monthly actress
dmm dvd ranking monthly actress 21 40
dmm dvd ranking monthly actress 41 60
dmm dvd ranking monthly actress 61 80
dmm dvd ranking monthly actress 81
and chose translate
from the results of the websites - you get the actual site translated
and it's even possible to switch back-to-original
(google translation right top corner)

p.s.
yes,
i have read

i just

for new releases info etc.
i use, beside akiba-o,
many english written forums, blogs, libraries and else, we all know. :)

And it works perfectly. ;) But maybe some countries allow their citizens not to access all websites. :(

In first case it ...was Japan/DMM that doesn't want to be browsed ( or 'raided by gaijin (外人)' ;) ),
as we all did see often those last years of "xxx". ;)
The problem (and -curiously- the main attraction) is indeed the censorship of JAV mainstream/mass releases.
This causes on the one hand more creativity (an additional plus - to the beauty of their girls/women)
- on the other hand it did prevent (the censored mass of mainstream) JAV to be a strong worldwide sales item.
But:
Otherwise things change and did change already.

At least a -proper- JAV ranking today should be splitted into

1. JAV favorite actresses and movies (downloads) from outside Japan
and
2. JAV favorite actresses and dvd/bluray/downloads by sales and number IN-Japan
(The problem for many fans outside Japan is that their taste often differs from what the Japanese customer is willing-to-pay-for -
what did push many girls favorited by fans outside Japan (Maria Ozawa, Rio Hamasaki, ...for example) out-of-business.
On the other hand those women do not like to do porn in the western porn industries,
they usually get paid better in Japan or Taiwan anyway - for just lickin' icecream in front of a camera.
)
But, again:
Otherwise things change and did -partly- change already.
Remember Anri Okita and HITOMI in Las Vegas early 2015, etc. ... :)

View attachment 368567

I was gonna disagree with you somewhat... and then I saw this pic and your caption. In Las Vegas... of course... I was actually getting curious about Anri Okita (cuz I am a tits man) but thanks to your post, I'm gonna give her a pass. The makeup, the pose, are all wrong, so wrong.

Yes... if gaijin fans would dominate the JAV economy, we will all save a lot of sperm. Already happened to Europorn, since they become more Americanized, I've watch Europorn less and less.

I had a couple vids of Hitomi from earlier but nowadays I'd rather look at real cows than her udders.

Welcome, brother. :) Booooobs!!! :D

Are Hitomis recent movies really that different to her earlier works? How about Anri?
I guess I will wait and see what happens. :) I hope JAV won't change thanks to the American market. That would be very bad. We don't need just some more Asian actresses in American porn. :(

I too live in a country from which DMM doesn't want to be browsed (my English teacher should be proud). My awkward solution is to refuse (or clear) cookies from DMM and hit ESC (stopping Firefox) as soon as the useful data has been streamed.

Anyway... failing to find an adult-friendly free web/wiki host. I am testing the waters of English Wikipedia with 2 pages created by hand:
JULIA (AV idol)
Nana Aoyama

Considering the Chinese and Japanese Wikipedia are allowing some very racy (text) contents, English Wikipedia might serve the purpose until someone (or some company) decide to create an AV idol Wiki and let me upload data.

...i didn't realise
there was no English Julia article so far
at English wikipedia... (じゅりあ gives better results than ジュリア, when searching for 'our Julia' ...elsewhere)

.
.
.

(The following goes
'to ...other readers' here -
who have interest in creating wiki entries at original wikipedia
)


...for example
Anri Okita ( 沖田杏梨 )
Japanese Wikipedia: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/沖田杏梨
needs an English entry too,
see her appearance in that Hongkong movie (she's even the girl in the background, on the cover)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_Ambition_2

...


Search for the Japanese Wikipedia entry of the JAV actress (= if there is any, already)
( English Wikipedia articles may be expanded with text translated
from the corresponding article in the Japanese Wikipedia )



English wikipedia pages of JAV actresses:

Yuma Asami
Yuma Asami filmography

Akiho Yoshizawa
Akiho Yoshizawa filmography

Sola Aoi
Sola Aoi filmography

Maria Ozawa
Maria Ozawa filmography

Rio Hamasaki

Tsubomi (actress)

Hikari Hino


as great and exhausting examples.

Once a new English Wikipedia JAV actress page is created,
other 'pedians will start to add content and make corrections (hopefully).

The thing in need is proof of facts (weblinks to relevant sources),
not the slightest personal opinion -
citation, citation, references orgies and proof of facts again ('Filmography', 'notes', 'references', 'external links', 'sources') ...until you guys drop or puke. ;)

By the way
"they" love to delete/remove even whole entries if not proven by (better) more than just 2 or 3 relevant facts (for example a list of dvd releases (including company (citation), directors of those movies (link to japanese wikipedia etc.) , dmm.co.jp actress link, additional company links like Japanese Playboy, Graphis etc.

Thanks for the creation ! :)


Heh, it's so cool to open Wikipedia and start typing "JULIA (" and my page appears in the auto-complete.


Why don't you correct my mistake and talk about it. I have the feeling that having more edits and views will increase their acceptance of the contents and also all the contributors involved (you and I).

Q:"What can i fill in, over there?"

Names, Japanese and English, real name (if known), former stage names.
Birthday
Measurements and height/weight
Bloodtype (I don't understand Japanese obsession with bloodtype, but hey that's just my personal opinion)
Agent/Studio
No. of Gravue/Image videos
No. of Censored videos
No. of Uncensored videos
Years active (debut to retirement)
Filmography

Linking to Japanese wikipedia is pretty important, I think the existence of a Japanese wiki page will encourage the mysterious they to allow our JAV idol pages.

IMHO, citation isn't a huge problem assuming DMM etc are acceptable references. I'm only hesitant to cite DMM etc because DMM is clearly pornographic and I notice some talk page mentioning (opin?) that's improper. Anyway like I said it's only water-testing.

We posted a bunch of videos and pictures from Las Vegas on the R18.com blog with Anri and Hitomi. Both girls were very nice and Hitomi is very bubbly and tiny. Though still in planning stages...next year's AVN might just blow your socks off!

But it will be in Las Vega / the US again, right? :(

Which means you have a whole year to get your plane ticket ready! ;)
I guess I prefer buying a ticket to Japan than to the U.S.. ;)

I share the worries of ding73ding that JAV movies become more like U.S. porn. Maybe some people will think that JAV has to become like U.S. porn to conquer that market. But I switched to JAV because it is different. Going there would maybe intensify this trend. Maybe visiting some DMM events in Japan would give a different signal.

lol.
Maybe because 'bloodtype' is (maybe) one of the few 'real life' informations we get from the girl(s) -
beside height, bust hip and waist size to a certain date in their life.

Name: artist name
Birthday: fake
Birthplace: fake
etc.

It's (usually) '...allowed' in the country were it matters.
Japan is a special case anyway - other countries don't like 'loli' stuff, we know. Et cetera, yadda-yadda...
If some of the moderators think ...something isn't of 'international interest' (and English wikipedia is most internationally, their showcase).
...people will face ...blockades... and ...Talk... at the (closed) page.
Especially if lots of anonymous-just-ip-contributors start to flood those entries.
'New' and 'just registered' wikipedia users will be watched closely, too.
'Pr*n' isn't wikipedias main business.
...
IMHO, citation isn't a huge problem assuming DMM etc are acceptable references. I'm only hesitant to cite DMM etc because DMM is clearly pornographic ...
Another important thing about this is
that DMM is a company who sells this stuff
and if new entries about actresses just refer to DMM it simply looks like advertising.
And if they think it has been done by secret (paid) contributors for a company, many pages will be history soon.
Etc. etc.
Better contribute JAV actresses first, who have done (some) MAINSTREAM releases (like trivial movies, drama movies, gravure movies and tv shows).
Better citate sources like IMDB and (at best official known) newspapers, or articles from tokyoreporter
and as many as possible not-so-commercial sources...
(weblogs/blogs are often suspected as hidden advertisements, too, of course...).

.

EDIT
at March 4, 2015

As i thought about it
---> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JULIA_%28AV_idol%29
is at the moment 'no mainstream topic' for English wikipedia.

The page is deleted.

One mod did move it somewhere,
another mod or even admin did delete it, ...wow...
(/me did not think to be that right with my ...guessings,
but wiLLipedia ...IS ...a ...'living encyclopedia',
no softcore boulevard bbs.
An entry has to be of 'inter>>national interest'
...in their international (=english) wiki.)


But, hey... *heads up*
if you like the girls of JAV /w large bust ,
why not use the BOOB-PEDIA:

http://www.boobpedia.com/boobs/Category:Asian
(as long as) they have -a bit larger- BOOOOOOBS our japanese pornstars are all there -
with data and movies - and you can help EDIT... ;)
