Since I've kind of started this discussion, let's presents my position: I don't really care if each invocation of God, Hell, Randac or Odin are listed among a new category (let's say it could have some kind of use if you're specifically working on religion or magic categories) or not.

I'm just opposed to having them among the mentions. Mostly because I use those while editing on some pages (including on some blank or awfully-badly-completed). While other mentions' subdivisions would only be subjective, the invocations I am referring to are something clear: A character say something as a prayer, or something that could easily be replaced by a swear word. In other words, it has nothing to bring to editors, nothing to bring to readers. At best, it gives a little information of the culture of a character (and that's not even sure).

When I've tried to remove such useless mentions, my edits were reversed (on the basis that if we listed God's evocations as mentions, we should list Randac's, but I was then in favor of listing none of them), so I guessed a debate was needed.

So my point:
 * If the majority don't want to list invocations as another category, that's fine for me (and it's fine for me if they are), but as Nausiated said "Is someone really going to want to [...] how many comics that Agamotto is evoked", I think it apply even further for "God", who isn't even evoked for a spell but only for something a swear word would have covered. If I wanted to work on the Hell subject, or on Yahveh, let's say I won't until the system changes, because there's no way I'm going to read about 400 issues only to find out than only a handfull actually bring the tiniest information.
 * Concerning the mentions in a general way: Nope, still useful. Maybe it's irrelevant for Wolverine, but I use it for a lot of subjects who aren't overused like Wolverine, meaning subjects that have a lot mentions (containing information), sometimes more than appearances on some periods...
