I know this has been discussed before but I think it really needs to be addressed and actually enacted since we now have even more characters after Secret War, but Character disambiguation pages are getting too big for all the different versions of major characters such as Spider-Man with what feels like hundreds if not thousands of versions, some of which are just cameos and not all of which are even showing up due to page loading.

So we need to find and enact a way to fix this, beyond just increasing the number shown on a page. I remember Adour having a good suggestion for this a while back and even had a mock-up display. I just can't find it or remember what it was, but the Moderators and Admins need to come up with a solution and implement it.

One suggestion I have is find the main ones people view and search for and separate those on the main disambiguation page (Major Universes, Major Films, TV shows and Video Games, maybe alternate versions that stand out). Then have a separate page for the rest, subdivided into different sections, potentially under the headings:
 * 1) What if, What The and Not Brand Eck versions
 * 2) Completely different versions (Various Spider-verse spider-men that had minor roles would be an example)
 * 3) Merge the rest of the Film, TV show and Video Game into one section
 * 4) I would also suggest the trimming down of the Others section and either the removal or trimming down of the Related sections to remove those barely tangentially related and to only include the important ones. The main ones of which should probably go on the main page (Ben Reilly, Kaine like characters again as an example.

If anyone has a suggestion at all for a way to change this problem, join the discussion, we just need to make a change.
