I'm questioning the relevance of creating categories just for the sake of adding categories. Especially when it comes to such specific details that are -- at best -- trivial. Especially considering the fact that this information is listed in the character profiles/pages themselves.

Additionally, most licensed properties don't have pages here -- with the exception of issue summaries --- in the majority of cases any links refer readers to other Wiki pages that centralize on that info (Hasbro properties being the big one) or even now that they are a former licensed property that is now owned by the Disney umbrella of franchises (ie: Star Wars).

Frankly, unless these characters are featured in a mainstream Marvel book (examples: Godzilla, Rom, the Micronauts) they shouldn't have profiles on this wiki. Or at the very least if they have their own universe designation (again the Hasbro stuff). The creator owned stuff from past and present imprints (Epic, Icon etc.) are creator owned, and I am of the mind that they should not have character profiles on this Wiki because they're not tied to Marvel and can go elsewhere (Groo has, Powers came from Image and although Bendis has a good working relationship with Marvel, he still could theoretically have it published elsewhere in the future, same with Kabuki, Kick-Ass etc.)

As for the Strikeforce stuff... Until there is some kind of deal made or a court decision, the ownership of those characters is hearsay. To date, its not like Strikeforce has been published elsewhere. It's a property that has been dead in the water since the late 80s. Why even split hairs on who owns it when its a matter before the courts. We're not an official site or anything, we have Fair Use law that allows us to write whatever about these things. But to be making statements one way or the other -- or worse -- creating arbitrary categories over sticky ownership issues like this is not our place.

Adding a category for a handful of characters who land in this criteria is academically useless. It's splitting hairs and repeating the same info ad nasuem.
