I need to find the reference, but a Marvel-published 2014 spider-verse tie-in showed an interdimensional traveler enter a videogame to kill and absorb the essence of a Spider-Man. The next panel had an person in front of an arcade game looking very confused. My point is that if a material cannot be specifically tied to a known universe, we give it a temporary universe id. We already mark them as not being part of the well-known mainstream universes, so adding this is redundant. edit: I also I feel that adding this to a page defaces the content; it adds a possible prejudgment to a work that was signed off by Marvel Studios - which could detract from a readers objective viewing of the article. I'm not proposing we say they're non-canon, I'm proposing we add notation that indicates they contain elements which may or may not fit into accepted canon.

Let me put it this way, what do you propose be done for articles where the authors themselves say they're not sure the story should be considered entirely canon?
