I think this page has got too much in it for a disambiguation page. Much of what is covered here is also covered (better) at Superman in popular culture. I think it needs to be pared down just to what people are likely to be looking for when they type in "Superman". For everything else, we can direct people to the "popular culture" article.

I've tried to split the entries down into categories. The persistent Roller Coaster has been added to the Popular Culture list, but I added back the cycling position by concatenating the different stunt variants. I made the literature/philosophy the first entry as that is the oldest usage of the word. -- Jason Kirk 13:04, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Is there a chapter that discusses the specfic history of the Superman in his current continuity? The history as told by the current run of comic books, I'm refering too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.107.177.61 ( talk) 03:15, August 29, 2007 (UTC)
They should be shorter, as I said in my edit summary. So for this reason, I have tagged the page for cleanup. Lord Sesshomaru ( talk • edits) 06:04, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
At the bottom of this "article" in the "See Also" section, the last line reads:
Precisely that. It appears to me that this belongs in the "Music" section, and even the "Albums" sub-section. However, I have no further idea what the hell this is (e.g., who is the artist? The Wikilinked-in article on Merlin doesn't help me, either). Could somebody who does fix this up? Please? -- Ted Watson ( talk) 18:52, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
I myself know nothing about this song or Joe Brooks (assuming he is not the same-named creator of "You Light Up My Life" in the 1970s). However, the fact of the matter is that many such disambig. pages in Wikipedia have entries with no Wiki-article whatsoever linked in, including this one. I'll admit that those entries here that are not Wikilinked themselves have a secondary term within the entry Wikilinked, but as justification for the item's inclusion they seem to be stretches to me. You will indeed find quite a good number of disambig. pages in Wiki that have entries which bear no Wikilinks themselves. So that is not a good reason for deleting this. Find another or leave it in. Or do a wholesale cleaning of other disambig. pages. -- Ted Watson ( talk) 21:25, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
O.K., I'll admit that the limited space available for edit summaries has resulted in my seeming to say something that I did not intend due to oversimplification. I do get your point now. -- Ted Watson ( talk) 21:08, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
I addressed Jwy's concerns. Mitsube ( talk) 04:13, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
I'm pretty certain that "The Superman" is also a dance routine/choreography (Google and Youtube yield many results, but I don't know if there's a known creator/developer of it nor if it's trademarked). It's not listed here nor can I find an article about it here and I was actually looking for said and more information about it (so I can't create a WP article about it and don't feel comfortable adding a red link here). For trivia, in popular culture it's (also) referenced in "Melissa & Joey" episode "The Chaperones". Perhaps someone with knowledge about it could add an article? Thanks.

Why is Adventures of Superman (TV series) for example not linked here? Or Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
They do not start with the word "Superman", but just now while attempting to find the first show, I followed the path of: Google "Superman" > Superman > Superman (disambiguation)
If there is no objection then I will proceed to add them. Mike Richardson ( talk) 17:03, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
