Companions list is ready. (Redirect left from pagemove could also be deleted.)

I have filed some uncertainties which I decided not to touch because of my huge lack of in-depth game knowledge. I'll report these here, so that you, or other seasoned users, may deal with them appropriately.

  1. The following companions are marked both as Hallowmas and Fate on category page; but they are not marked as Fate on their own item pages. If I understand things correctly, for each of them there are Fate and non-Fate ways to acquire during Hallowmas. So I assume this actually means [Hallowmas + optional Fate]. Though, it looks more like [Hallowmas + mandatory Fate]. I've left both qualifiers just as can be seen on category page -- I don't know whether Fate should be removed or not.
  2. The same matter's regarding Election companions. Seems like they are both Fate and non-Fate obtainable. Still, there's ambiguity with Fate tag: would it be interpreted by readers as optional, or as mandatory?
  3. These few companions have several options to be acquired, all Fate-locked: one during Feast of the Rose, and the rest via some other year-round options [[Rose + mandatory Fate] OR [Fate elsewhere]]. If they would be marked both as Rose and Fate, that would logically conflict with those companions which are Fate-locked as well, but accessible ONLY during Feast [Rose + mandatory Fate]. On the category page they can be seen as Fate-only, and I've flagged them so. I don't know if Rose should be added.
  4. I have not flagged any companions as Retired at all, because I don't yet understand exactly how this status is determined. There's simply no way I can be sure about it. (I'm a real newbie, sorry, can't help with that.) Probably you'd have to check them yourself. Some of them tagged with Retired on the category page, some other categorized as Retired Items on their own pages. It could be that I missed a few, though.
  5. These I'll comment individually.
