The only problem I have with a solution is removing the "Ongoing" section, it's an unnecessary split that requires constant maintenance.

^ I've honestly had the least issues with the Ongoing section, partly because it's always been there, partly because it's something The Other Wiki does too, and partly because upkeep should theoretically be straightforward. However I do agree that it's got problems - the legend is pretty much useless, the upkeep is overcomplicated by this Adaptations section, and the Ongoing folder suggests we're doing the same for all the other sister mags too which I doubt is even happening (also it only calls further into question how to actually handle said other mags).

I think a lot of the page can be cut down to just listing the works we already have pages for, like we often have on Creator/ pages.

We list works we don't have pages for on Creator/ as well though.
