Soooo, the Captain America would feature alternate realities of Captain America, as well as people other than Steve Rogers, except for those where Steve Rogers isn't Captain America? And what about the Bucky page? Shouldn't that also list the realities where Bucky is Captain America?

Nah, I'd wager that the Bucky page would just feature realities where Bucky where James Barnes is DEPICTED as Bucky. The way you have to think about it is divorcing the real name under the costume.

The primary Bucky page would feature everyone on Earth-616 who took on the mantle of Bucky, then there would be an alternate reality page that would break down each reality where someone wore the Bucky costume (By wear, I mean they were actually depicted in the costume.)

There are a bunch of alternate realities where James is only depicted as Captain America. We can assume that he was Bucky prior to that, but since it's not actually depicted in the story, then I don't think it should be listed on the Bucky page.

Where a disambiguation page that would feature every incarnation of James Barnes in each reality regardless of if he was Captain America, Bucky, or whatever would be a page for his real name, James Barnes.

Another example would be Warren Worthington III. I'd say that he'd need three disambiguation pages: One for his real name, one for Angel, and one for Archangel. The Worthington page would have him in all his alternate realities and different incarnations (as they were depicted) then there would be one for when he was using his Angel identity listing each reality counterpart that was depicted or operating under the code name Angel. Like wise for Archangel.

Spider-Man, another example: There are a bunch of different guys who appeared as Spider-Man.

I'd say that a disambiguation page for Spider-Man would have all the "Mainline" people who have operated as Spider-Man: Peter Parker-616, Ben Reily-616 Otto Octavious-616, Miles Morales-1610, that odd ball villain from the 40s. A sub-page would feature all the alternate reality versions of those mainline characters broken down by person (So a list of alternate Peter Parkers etc in each reality where they were depicted as Spider-Man)

That kind of clear up my idea?
