Suggestions
If I've asked for your opinion on this categorization, feel free to leave your suggestions in this section. Say whatever you like, dislike, want to include, etc. I don't mind constructive critique. Just keep in mind I won't implement this categorization without a wiki-wide discussion (probably in the next daimyō-kai). This is just me drafting something up. :) Thanks for your input.

Proposition
In light of the fact that the wiki is mainly written with an in-universe POV, I find that categories such as Characters (which classifies them as fictional) take away from such an angle. Also, the categorization could be better organized so as to find certain characters by different traits. Thus, I propose the following changes:

Current categories New categories
