Rename

The purpose of this template is as it describes, for use on subpages or pages covering non-valid material per my T:SUBPAGE proposal. I've named it "NC" based on the ancient MediaWiki:Tardis.css "type-NC" which it uses, and also as a pun: NC can stand for either its original meaning of "non-canon" (now "invalid") or the modern category of "non-covered", thereby naming both potential uses of the template. However, this is neither obvious nor easy to remember, and "non-valid" is the actual preferred umbrella term for invalid and non-covered sources.
