What is the Monthly Vote (月票榜) ranking?

Qidian's Monthly Vote ranks novels by reader-cast monthly votes, a currency tied to paid subscriptions — it reflects active reader spending, not just raw traffic.

How often do you cover the rankings?

We track and explain movement on a regular cadence rather than a one-off snapshot, since these boards update continuously.

Does a high Qidian ranking mean an English translation exists?

Not automatically. We note translation/licensing status separately — a chart-topping novel on Qidian can still be untranslated in English.

Where do you source ranking data?

Directly from Qidian's public ranking pages, translated and cross-checked against community discussion for context on why a title is moving.
