Add a search filter for showing empty series
This one is mostly for moderators, but it would be nice to be able to see empty series in a search. I've found empty series before that need to be merged into existing ones while searching in the Collects/Reprints box while adding to TPBs, but can't get to them in the search. If they're not in the first 6 returned on the search screen, they're hidden from the final results.
Also helps for finding series that already exist but happen to still be empty when trying to add books or to give to users trying to add that series.

Ran into this issue with the Image Comics series 'Skinners'. I searched for "Skinners" in both the iPhone app and Microsoft Edge on my PC. In both cases, it comes up as "we couldn't find anything"--and I can submit a screencap to that effect if needed. So, I submitted a new series and it got denied because the series was already in the system (albeit with no issues listed). The link that the mod (Befilement) sent me went right to the series entry in the database. So the series IS there, but it can't be found through a search.
