User:Chubby Potato/Sandbox/List of realities
This is a rough idea for a page of a list of realities (parallel universes, alternate timelines, dimensions, etc.). But of course, it's tricky to differentiate those. It is not intended to be in-universe in order to provide clearer details. For now I am including things from reference sources even though they are not currently valid sources. (Admittedly, this is mainly for Marvel stuff.) Also, for now it should be in alphabetical order excluding N-Space. For things without official names (e.g. Parallel universe (Auld Mortality)), let's alphabetise by story dab.
This is very much a work in progress. If you want to add or edit something, feel free.
