 * The way the Hypertime thing is structured - that template should only be used on ONE page, and nowhere else - is shitty in general. I don't think we should be adding things to that category anyway. A note (possibly in the form of a text-only template) would do the trick.
 * Pre-COIE Reality Category is also poorly structured (you should never be typing the phrase "___ reality category" into a universe field). If anything, the category should be added manually. Looks like these categories and their templates are The Paradox's fault. There ought to be - and probably is - a better way of categorizing, and a better name for the categories.
 * Reality Category is for categorizing realities in general. that one's important.
 * TV and Movie Reality Category should also be got rid of. We have better ways of categorizing these things.

NEXT.


 * I can't think of any defunct realities that have stopped being defunct, I agree that the autocategorizing should go.
 * Yes, kill Hypertime.
 * Don't we just have Category:Elseworlds? Isn't that enough?
 * As I said above, I don't think pre-COIE should be automated in the way that the template says it should.
 * TV and Movie should be destroyed like the garbage it is.
 * You want a category to collect the realities that the New 52 Multiverse "realities" are? This seems like more of ye olde "Categorizing for the sake of categorizing even though nobody's ever going to use these categories for anything, ever."
 * As far as Vertigo and Wildstorm - everything that is creator owned (Like American Vampire or Zero Girl) should have its own universe designation = reality. Everything that is work for hire like Hellblazer or Animal Man should exist somewhere in that complicated place between New Earth and Vertigo Universe (or Wildstorm Universe, in that case). I'm not too picky about which (except Hellblazer). As far as shovelling all of those universes (creator owned and work for hire) into another category, sure, I suppose you could do that. Or not. It's just more - and quite probably fruitless - work for you.
