- So, residents of Earth-38, Earth-1 and Earth-BL/73/whatever now believe they've always been the same Earth, and only the Paragons know different? That sounds like how we're dealing with Dakotaverse.
- I'm not sure if we should differentiate between Arrowverse: Earth-1 and Arrowverse: Earth-Prime. While it is accurate, it's a SEO and UX nightmare for people like Weather Witch or JJ Diggle. I think it makes more sense to let them keep (Arrow) (or make it Arrowverse), with a multicont note.
- I vote against moving all the other series and movies to (Arrowverse: Earth-Whatever). Since it didn't create a single Universe but a new Multiverse, it'd make more sense to just call them by their series name - while (Arrowverse: Earth-9) will be the same pre and post-COIE, (Arrowverse Earth-2) is not (Stargirl TV Series). Same for Earth-19.
- Old series... still open on whether we should treat Earth-66, 89 et al as separate from their original series, see the Joker alive discussion.
- Did they use actual footage from the GL movie for Earth-12? The esthetic looked the same, but it's been a while since I saw that.
- Looks like we're going to have to split Titans and DP.

<p>It's not inaccurate.
</p><p>And SEO is not about people.
</p>
(Edited by Tupka217)
<p>Isn't it more confusing to not have a uniform naming system. Why bother with earths like (Arrow: Earth-2) if your not going to do it for every earth

<p>What else would we call the old Earth-2, Earth-3, et cetera?

Why use a placeholder name when we have an official designation?
(Edited by TheDemon08)

<p>Because Earth-19 and Earth-19 are not the same, and because (Arrow: Earth-19 Post-Crisis) is actually three disambigators in one. None of which mention the actual series it's from. It means absolutely nothing. We shouldn't have moved Supergirl to Earth-38, and we definitely shouldn't move any of the other series universes. I don't care about anyone's OCD, SEO and UX are way more important.

Leave it until it gets an official designation.

<p>I think at least Earths 96 and 167 should be treated as a duplicate universes due to sone inconsistencies with Donnerverse/Superman Returns and Smallville respectively and have new pages created for Earth-96 Superman, Earth-167 Clark and Earth-167 Lois. In Earth-96's case, that Superman seems to be a mixture of all four Reeves movies and Returns, the latter of which only has the first two Reeves movies canon.

<p>Treating the universes, in the crossover, as the real deal would open a massive can of worms. They only showed Earth-89 (supposed Burtonverse) for a few seconds, and had the Joker be alive. Treating Earth-89 as the actual Burtonverse would cause problems. Have they retconned the death of Jack Napier? Or is this a separate Joker, who've emerged in the years since? No doubt, it would probably cause a lot of bad edits, by editors who assume one of the two scenarios to be the case (without definitive proof).
</p><p>Then, of course, is the Darkseid issue. He is mentioned in the <i>Justice League</i> movie. However, Darkseid was also on <i>Smallville</i>. <i>Chaos</i> establishes that there is only one Darkseid (him), in the entire multiverse, who travels between different realities. By treating Earth-167 as the actual <i>Smallville</i> universe, we'd end up in a scenario where any mentions or appearances of Darkseid in the DCEU (and any other continuity, that this crossover have placed within this one multiverse), would have to be considered a mention or appearance by Darkseid (Smallville).
