Re:Kyletheobald - Like Iris West, I don't think Jackal and Mala's case is all that similar. "Jackal" is (at least as far as I can gather given the scant information on those pages) an alias. We're not expecting those characters to be related, and the Roman Numerals denote the order they assumed that mantle (as in Tally Man I (New Earth) and Tally Man II (New Earth)). So, in short this is my mental process - If two or more characters have the same name, either: I know I'm losing on this, but I thought I'd make my point anyway. One a somewhat related note, shouldn't pages like "Mala (Earth-Two)" and "Iris West (New Earth)" be "Mala I (Earth-Two)" and "Iris West I (New Earth)" to conform with the style and to denote that there is another person by that name out there? I see it with aliases (like Jackal) but not so much with real names. That, or some message like "This article is about the Kryptonian criminal.  If you are looking for the Amazon of the same name, see Mala (Earth-Two)" at the top of those pages? Re:Hatebunny - I'll try to do better to remember to add something to the discussion page. In fact, I'll try and go back and add as many as I can shortly. I've got a solid block of classes from 1PM EST, so I'm using a loose definition of "shortly".
 * 1) Denote the difference between the two characters via Roman Numerals if either a) the two characters are genetically related, or b) the two characters go by the same alias and no real name is provided.
 * 2) Denote the difference using as succinct an identifier as possible if the two characters share the same real name but are unrelated.
