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.

"Ant-Man's Suit" would include suits worn by multiple men of one Identity but not all the suits they've worn, vs. "Hank Pym's Suit" would include all the suits worn by one man but not all the suits worn by those Identities. Which is preferable? By what standard? Interesting question. Maybe it should be based on the suit itself. If it was literally used by multiple people then it would be "Alias' Suit." Example: Ant-Man. If each people with the alias used a brand new suit, it would be "Person's Alias Suit." Example: Spider-Man. Just a thought.

I thought the standard was that if it deserved a page, it deserved to be tracked, but I guess we could switch to the DC Wiki's standard for items and vehicles: "This page contains a listing of all known appearances of item/vehicles where it is integral to the plot of the story."
