For one, they both have "universe" at the end, meaning they're covering singular universes, and not content in general. And second, the Marvel movie universe is literally called the Marvel Cinematic Universe by everyone, those movies you listed aren't apart of the MCU, and the name specifies that it only covers movies in the MC.

The same goes for the DCAU Wiki. Those are both terrible examples you gave. As far as the Lego Games Wiki goes, it covers the majority of Lego Games, and the games you listed that they don't cover are rather minor, this wiki doesn't cover all DC TV, and we have a lot of DC Television shows coming, so it would be a potential problem.

Also no, the admins take in consideration the majority, but in the end make the best decision for the wiki. The admins wont necessarily "take in consideration the majority, but in the end make the best decision for the wiki." They have said that they will go with whatever the majority vote turns out to be. Also, I think what SeanWheeler means is that even though the DCUA doesn't include all DC cartoons it is still called the DC Animated Universe. So by that logic, there could still be a DCTV Universe that didn't include all DC tv shows. I know exactly what he means, DC Animated Universe means DC Animated Universe, a wiki for a "universe". The only way he'd have a point if it was called the DC Animated Wiki, and didn't cover all DC Animated stuff. Secondly, yes that is what they'll be doing. I chat with them all the time, so I think I'd know. Also, that's what happens in all cases. Things are up for vote, but the admins make the best decision for the wiki in the end result. I'm glad the admins will be making a decision based on the vote because I hear they are in favour of Arrowverse. The only reason I though they would be making the decision based solely on the vote is TimeShade's comment above which read "Unless DC gives an official name, we will go with what majority voted for." Also, would you be in favour of the name DCTV Universe wiki? After all that does have the Universe tagline.
