There are a lot of NPCs on this list that aren't altererers. Is there a way to easily fix this or is it a matter of going through every single NPC that isn't one and changing their tags?

I did a quick spot check and it doesn't look like all NPCs on this list are actually flagged as Alterers. Is it just pulling the data incorrectly? --TEVESHSZAT (talk) 10:39, 13 June 2014 (CDT)
