That went way more smoothly than I thought it would. Anyways, since everyone seems to be fine with Milk Wars profiles and there were no disagreements thus far, can I post them or should we wait a little more?

It just boldly states
"Milk Manipulation"

Already did. Although, does anyone have a suggestion as to how the footnote should be written?

Thanks.
Would "Do not cross-scale "Milk Wars" characters with the regular DC Comics continuity, as the two have incompatible internal powerscaling structures." be sufficient? I am open to improvements of course.

Well, considering that the Eonymous have the DC Multiverse as a map on a table, and the fact that one of them spilling coffee into it damaged all of existence, I'd say we can indeed scale Milk Wars characters to those of Mainstream DC to a certain extent, but not vice-versa. I mostly took Matt's suggestion to mean that we shouldn't take Milk Wars characters into account when dealing with the higher-end powerscalling chains of the verse and such, so basically treating it as its own isolated thing statistics-wise, but not necessarily in terms of canon.
So, basically:
"Although characters from the Milk Wars crossover storyline are to be scaled to ones present in the mainstream DC Continuity, the reverse does not necessarily hold, due to the its status as a metafictional joke which clashes with certain aspects of the main continuity. However, it should be noted that that events of the storyline still happened, and so can technically be considered canon to the overall verse"

Does anything really show that realm to be the Eonymous' realm though? From what I remember they existed in a void with a TV and that was it. Not that scenery Rita saw.

It's shown to be a living room with a person wearing the same clothes the Eonymous have been shown to use (black astronaut-like suits with tubes connecting to one another) watching a scene from Crisis on Infinite Earths in a TV, it's pretty clear who we are supposed to be seeing.

Would something like this be acceptable?
"Although characters from the Milk Wars crossover storyline are scaled from ones present in the mainstream DC Continuity, the reverse is not allowed, due to the its status as a metafictional joke which clashes with the hierarchical structure of the main continuity. However, it should be noted that that events of the storyline still happened to the Doom Patrol characters, and so can technically be considered canon to the overall verse."

I take it that Resistance to Conceptual Manipulation can be added to Superman's profile as well?
