Recently, The S gave me the go-ahead to start placing Template:Teen and Template:Mature on appropriate articles. I've been on a massive editing spree (as the Wiki Activity page today can show), adding templates at the tops of articles. I've started on Mirage articles, and I've been treating the entire Mirage continuity as a whole entity, so I've been putting Mature templates on all of them.

Then came the complication that some articles cover more than one continuity, so I started putting the template under the specific section. But then...there are some articles that don't even divide the continuities into sections, and discuss the multiverse topic as a whole. When they still reference Mirage publications, I am unsure whether to give those articles the Mature tag as well.

I mean, this entire effort was to help inform content boundaries so that parents can parent their little kids who read TMNT sites, etc. But sometimes the dividing line is an ill-defined blur, and I honestly don't always know where to mark it&mdash;whether the err on the side of caution (add the template) or on the side of inclusion (don't add the template).

Also, though many templates have already gone up and continue to go up, conceivably some of them can be removed if there's a dispute and a consensus to take it down on specific articles. I'm not going to pretend that I alone have perfect judgment in this matter. It's just that there already seem to be so few active editors working on these particular articles at all.
