Some things should be categorized and some not. We have page templates that automatically create a link to an appearance category and obviously we shouldn't use that on situations where we don't want to categorize the appearances. Editors like to add all kinds of trivial and redundant stuff (categories, appearances, etc.) to the pages because it makes us feel like we are contributing to the wiki and it's really easy to do. Without some restrictions, more important content will be lost among the clutter.

If clear majority of character's appearances would result also some item's appearance, it's not helpful to list those. Even if we have some appearances of Wolverine without an adamantium skeleton, we shouldn't list Adamantium on the rest. I don't think that articles about suits should go to the Glossary namespace but I'm also not actively trying to solve this problem now.
