[edit] Tomes

I'm sort of sorry to see you editing out the word "tome". While "text" is not really a problem in these contexts, I've been thinking of trying to get the awkwardly named Category:Fictional books within the Cthulhu Mythos to be renamed Category:Cthulhu Mythos tomes, which would follow the form of other Cthulhu Mythos subcategories. In that case, "text" (or "book") wouldn't work, because it would seem to apply to the real-world writings of Lovecraft etc. Even "fictional books" is problematic, because it's easy to misread as "fiction books." I thought "tomes" was a word people would understand as meaning "those made-up secret books", but if you're editing it out, apparently as being too obscure, then I guess not. Any suggestions?
