I'm still not sure why Moon Cancer and Alter Ego were lumped together in the first place besides said BB-theme; it makes the main Extra page the de-facto Foreigner page with a very small blurb about other Extra classes.
Why not move Moon Cancer back to the Extra page until/if there's enough Foreigner/Moon Cancers to split? That'd keep the current numbers of Extra Servants per page roughly equal (7 Rulers, 6 Avengers, 7 Alter Egos, then 3 Foreigners + 3 Moon Cancers). By character count, Extra has only 55k, this Alter Ego + Moon Cancer page has 140k (only 40k of which are the Moon Cancer section), and Rulers/Avengers are healthy at 80k/98k each.
The FGO thread literally saw just the Sakura-faces, ignoring the FGO-original Alter Egos and went "these mean they're the same class lol"
so yeah I'm in favor of moving it back to the Extra page.
Thanks for doing the bulk of the work! I went ahead and edited the main Characters page too, I think that's everything.
Can we agree on a proper name? Meltlilith is listed as Meltryllis repeatedly but her name should, in keeping with all the Sakura Five, be a reference to a flower. And while the amaryllis is a breed of flower, its common name is "Lily", which also draws its name from Lilith, the evil goddess/demon famed for her sexuality and depravity much like Meltlilith. Further, she's referred to as "Meltlilith" everywhere I can find, even google searching "meltryllis" turns up results for Meltlilith.
I could go through and change it all I just don't wanna overstep my bounds or step on anyones toes (or incurr an edit war) if there's already been an agreement on this and I just can't find it

Previous examples have always used the official English localization, which is, as of today, Meltryllis.
tbh I'm pretty sure her name in Japanese is supposed to invoke all three (amaryllis, Lilith, and Lilies) but English isn't really equipped to do that so best to go with the name that actually fits in the Floral Theme Naming
With the reveal of Ganesha/Jinako, do you think we should create a separate Moon Cancer page yet? (Was under the assumption we lumped Moon Cancer with the Alter Egos primarily because it was BB-exclusive, but then there's this.) Otherwise I'm under the understanding we don't make separate pages until the Servant count surpasses a certain number (like the Foreigners who are still under the main Extra page.
