Lords of Shadow Timeline

I decided to get my own take on Castlevania's timelines. I've tried to piece together which games would fit in certain timelines, of course the non-canon timelines contain entries of the classic and even the IGA timelines, I'm just trying to make more sense of it so that sequels or fangames can find a good place to fit in the timelines
