Help needed with renaming the DC Comics profile pages

[Antvasima]

Hello.

We have a bit of a problem.

Almost all of our DC Comics character profiles most likely refer to the Post-Crisis incarnations, unless explicitly stated othervise (Or, in the case of the Anti-Monitor and Superboy Prime, it is intended to be the same character in 2 different continuities).

However, they are generally not properly named as such, which causes confusion for our visitors and members/editors.

I would like to request help with renaming the pages. I have already done some work in this regard, but do not have the time and energy to handle all of them on top of all my regular work.

If you are willing to help out, just rename them like this: "<Character Name> (Post-Crisis)"

In case you are uncertain about if a certain character is Post-Crisis or Post-Flashpoint, you can mention it in the thread below.

Vertigo character pages should obviously not be renamed.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I can help in a bit.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you.

I'm doing some editing, but it's worth noting that some pages have completely Unknown Stats across the board, and / or have Post-Crisis and Post-Flashpoint as Keys.

 

[Antvasima]

You can list those pages within this thread. Then we can evaluate what to do with them case-by-case.

Should we also add Pre-Crisis?

 

[Antvasima]

If you find pages that are clearly Pre-Crisis, or Post-Flashpoint, but not mentioned as such, you can mention them here first.

 

[Gwynbleiddd]

New Earth characters are Post Crisis, right? (i'm not too knowledgable in DC)

 

[Gwynbleiddd]

Earh Prime is Pre Crisis, but what is Prime Earth? Post Crisis or Post-Flashpoint?

 

[Antvasima]

The Post-Crisis characters are the versions originating in the era between 1985 and 2011. Post-Flashpoint are from 2011 and forward.

 

[Gwynbleiddd]

Ok thanks.

 

[Antvasima]

Pre-Crisis are before 1985.

 

[Gwynbleiddd]

If a character is both Post-Crisis and Post-Flashpoint should i writte them both?

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

No.

 

[Antvasima]

You should preferably link to all such characters here though.

I meant that if you encounter profiles that you are uncertain about, just write down the links to the profiles in this thread.

 

[Gwynbleiddd]

There are multiple profiles with characters from Post Crisis and Post Flashpoint so i don't know what to do with them.

Unfortunately i'll have to stop now, i may contineu later if anything is left.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for the help.

What about characters that only appeared in Post-Crisis?

For example, Cythonna has only appeared in Post-Crisis and hasn't reappeared since as she was a one-shot villain. Was it really necessary to rename her profile?

 

[Antvasima]

It may be best anyway, in case new readers do not know who the character is.

Remember to rename them on the DC verse page as well.

I'm guessing that Etriga is Post-Crisis?

 

[Antvasima]

Yes.
