On the other hand Porcupine's Suit, which appeared regularly on its own in the Avengers Trophy Room, would deserve tracking. Since both are practically cameos, they should have the same worth when considering whether or not to be listed. Yes, as an individual appearance but we were talking about to not categorize appearances of some suit altogether.

Which is preferable? By what standard? If we have enough content to warrant it, we should have both articles. Of course listing appearances is completely different thing.

I tried to read the thread once again to see if there's something we could use to determine a consensus about appearance tracking of suits (and possibly other items). First we seemed to agree that suits without any special capabilities shouldn't be tracked but then the discussion moved to a debate which suit or item is unique enough to warrant an own page. That was never the point in the thread so it's very difficult to tell which opinions were given towards tracking and which considered the justification of an article. As the discussion has also lead to considerable displeasure amongst participants, I won't propose any policy change.
