No. Requests and their upvotes serve only as a guide to help developers discover
131+
which extensions the community wants most.

Your request is much more likely to be selected if it meets the following criteria:
141+
142+
- **Uniqueness:** The website offers content not available elsewhere.
143+
- **Quality:** The website is reliable, fast, and has good image quality.
144+
- **Justification:** The description clearly states why the website should be implemented.

Extension requests are never certain to be fulfilled. The requests are there to
129-
help extension developers discover wanted extensions.

Common reasons for a request being overlooked or ignored include:

If you want your extension to be added, your best chances are:
155+
- **Redundancy:** Most titles are already available via existing extensions. Developers
156+
rarely build new extensions for websites which have little new to offer.
157+
- **Language Barriers:** We have a small team of active developers who primarily
158+
speak English, so non-English websites are less likely to be implemented.
159+
- **Justification:** The request description did not provide a clear reason why
160+
the website should be added.

Most titles are already available through existing extensions. Creating a new extension
138-
simply to avoid waiting a short time for another site to update is not worth it
139-
for most developers. Since there are only a few active extension developers, foreign
140-
language extensions are less likely to get added.
169+
Yes! The fastest way to get an extension added is to create it yourself. Check out
170+
our [extension development guide](https://inkdex.github.io/development/extensions) to get started.
