Neverthelss, I find it pretty funny that Hans and the Duke are said to be "Arendelle Characters" that is blatantly false. The wiki is giving inaccurate information about characters to its viewers.

Hans should be a "Southern Isles Charater" and the Duke a "Weselton Character", because they are directly stated not to be from Arendelle.

Ideally, the characters of these kingdoms would be "Nordic Characters" or maybe "Frozen Movie Characters", but I understand these are really ambiguous.

But Hans is simply not an Arendelle Character. I am sorry, but Frozen is NOT Canon to OUAT. as you said, the creators explicitly stated that the characters are the same as the film. And really, even that is only true to an extent. The characters started out the same, and don't have a lot of the twisted backstory, but they have changed some as they have adapted to the new story (and surroundings in Elsa's case). But the events of "Frozen" can not be considered canon, unless they are specifically mentioned in the show.
