I have found the Description box useful when creating series to make clear (hopefully) what I'm doing. Can we have one for the Publisher series too?

I second this, especially in the case brought up in the previous thread with the numbered Penguin books. It would have made it a lot clearer that even though it was just called "Penguin Books", it meant something other than "all books published by Penguin Books."

Yes, I would like that very much.

I just added one publisher's series and wondered why there is no description field. I hope that such a field will be added.

Posted a request for this at the "recommended improvements" thread. My main need for the field would be to add a link to an authoritive list of all memebers of a series.

lquilter has set up a wiki page so you can make a note of what you would put into a description box:
