Other notes

 * How does Category:Graphic Novels differ from Category:One Shots?
 * Do we want TV and Film Realities in Defunct and Existing, or should those be reserved for comic book realities?
 * Should Elseworlds/TV Realities be listed separately in Hypertime Realities or just left as subcats?
 * How is Cnst different from CnstNL?
 * Ditto for CtzenCat and Ctzen


 * Does Character Template duplicate Character Template and if so, why?
