Well, the thing is, we're calling them individuals instead of characters because the articles themselves are written from an in-universe POV. Since we decided to make all the infoboxes colour coded and defined by universe, it made sense to do the same for navboxes. But major and minor do not seem a very in-universe way of sorting names to me.

If I could figure out a way to make the subheaders have show/hide links, I would totally create a template for the books universe individuals. But I haven't managed to do that yet without breaking the template. There is a way to collapse the whole template into the header bar (just put "class = mw-collapsed" as one of the parameters). So that is also another option we could use if we feel the templates are getting too long. I do want the different universes to have similar to the same kinds of templates (individuals, places, animals, societies, etc.), because it makes it a lot easier to navigate the wiki and the portals.

You could check out the RtA transcripts on Avonlea Vignettes if you think you might have trouble with the accents. The transcripts are not perfect, but they're quite good.
