I'm asking this question here because I don't think it will be noticed on the Dr Strange page. Since the Cloak has a character folder on the Dr Strange page, should we be creating folders for variants of the Cloak? I only ask because unlike Cap's shield the Cloak clearly has a personality and does a fair amount of stuff in episode 5. Plus plenty of characters get variant character folders even if they don't have that big of a role and don't necessarily need folder (such as Tony Stark from episode 3 who could just be mentioned in the Alternate Self topic).

Should the shows characters have folders on the multiverse character page?

I think this is a better way. Either that or just give each episode it’s own character page

It was decided that not all variants warrant a separate folder, for characters who are not really different from their main counterparts (like Bucky) or have a minor role (like Peter Quill) we just add a single Alternate Self entry to their main folder. And it is easier to look for, say, Thor's variants, when they are all on a single page.

Variants who got separate folders are highlighted in bold script, there are 8 of them so far + the Watcher + two tropes for the monster from ep1.

We might to adjust a few things in light of Sharon Carter and Kurt getting more substantial roles in the latest Zombie episode. I think it'll be a pain to scroll for the variants for characters in larger character pages.

Yeah, any ideas how to do it properly? I think, on very long pages we could list variants immediately after the main character. Something like: "Sharon Carter"; then "Variant: Survivor Sharon Carter".

For the Zombieverse, I think it would be better to group the zombified variants under one folder since, they don't really have much characterization beyond the snarling ghoul. And we move the zombiverse into a specific What If?-verse page.

Why isn’t John Flynn on a character page yet? He’s had enough characterisation and screen time to be included.

Is he in the first episode? Just add him yourself then.
