Hi, I see you've been making edits related to seinen manga, and I would like to point out a few things. First, on the English Wikipedia within WP:ANIME, manga are classified under 4 main demographics determined by age and gender of targeted readership: shounen manga, seinen manga, shoujo manga and josei manga. These are essentially catch-all classifications to give readers a quick understanding of who a given manga is targeted towards, as each of those demographics have particular styles that they generally conform to. In short, seinen manga is a catch-all term for "manga marketed toward men old enough to read kanji" as stated in the first sentence of that article. Some Japanese sources may refer to a given magazine as "男性向け", but that falls under the "seinen manga" umbrella as far as the English Wikipedia and WP:ANIME is concerned. If you want to discuss this further, I would recommend starting a discussion at WT:ANIME, as these types of edits are very controversial and are likely to get reverted as I and another user have already done in this case.-- 11:20, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the detailed message - I've posted my comments and proposal at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Anime_and_manga#Demographic_labels. Do take a look if you have the time. -- Creamyhorror (talk) 15:54, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
