Marvel Cinematic Universe and DC Animated Universe are two terms that could sound generic when taken out of context but are so associated with one thing that we'd immediately think of the thing. The X-Men, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, Daredevil, etc. films are their own Marvel Cinematic Universe, but we don't call them that because it's the official name of the series with the Avengers and Iron Man and related films in that continuity. And there are a lot of DCAUs, just the prominent one is the series that started with Batman: The Animated Series and lead up to Justice League Unlimited. A lot of super heroes fits this trope too. If DC didn't trademark "Superman", a lot of heroes (and some Nazis and overrated celebrities) could be Supermen, but DC made sure that "Supermen" always refers to the Kryptonian man named Kal-El. And the Marvel Animated Universe Wiki covers all universes that are animated with Marvel characters and not just their main universe. I suppose DCTV Universe wouldn't be so bad as, like you say, Marvel have done something similar. I would still vote for "Arrowverse" Wiki becuase it is used most commonly among the fandom ( and even the producers of the show. ) Whatever the wiki is named I think it should stick to this universe and not include other DC TV shows like Constantine and CBS Supergirl.
