Since Kon-El only appears in the Post-Zero Hour era, why the need for distinction of Kal-El in the other eras? I get it with Invisible Kid, because both Lyle and Jacques versions appear in several eras. Not sure I understand the reasoning when there is only one in an era.

I noticed that the Superboy link in the Pre-Crisis section of the main page is [[Superboy/Kal-El/Pre-Crisis]]. Just to clarify, should the links on the Diambiguation table be :

  • Superboy/Kal-El/Pre-Crisis
  • Superboy/Kal-El/Post-Crisis
  • Superboy/Kal-El/Glorithverse

Since Kon-El only appears in the Post-Zero Hour era, why the need for distinction of Kal-El in the other eras? I get it with Invisible Kid, because both Lyle and Jacques versions appear in several eras. Not sure I understand the reasoning when there is only one in an era.

See Kid Quantum, since it's the same thing. Pre-C was Earth-1, long-time member and grew up to become Superman, PostC was Pocket U, long time member and died as Superboy, Glorithverse was a member for a fortnight and died as PostC. Kon, OTOH, is just Superboy/Kon-El.
You disambig by character if need-be, and THEN AND ONLY THEN do you disambig by era. - Reboot (SoM) talk page 18:43, 15 July 2006 (PDT)
