The wiki isn't about Earths, the wiki is about shows, and the producers have meant to keep those shows separated (unless they announce otherwise in the future). The Earths that we cover happen to be on the shows that we cover. It can't possibly be that hard to see things from a production point of view instead of saying "in theory, they should be together".

User TheSonofNeptune already shared an article regarding the whole multiverse, but this wiki isn't about the whole multiverse, just the Arrowverse shows.

Some cartoons and other shows have done the same type of crossovers, but you don't consider them as part of the same thing just because they had special crossovers once or twice.


 * Cartoons Ben 10 and Generator Rex had a crossover.
 * A Doctor Who comic had a crossover with Star Trek.
 * Planet of the Apes also had a comic crossover with Star Trek.
 * CSI had a crossover with sitcom Two and a Half Men.

In all of those cases, if we go only by the plot, we could all say that "theoretically, they share an universe". However, you clearly know from a production standpoint that they don't belong together. thank you for these exellent post. But all the crossovers you mentioned that I have heard of before are considered non-canon. Comics don't really count as canon for TV shows, and the Ben 10/Generator Rex cartoon was non-canon. I'm not sure about CSI/Two and a Half Men, but there is a big difference in that the latter show is a comedy in which ridiculous things happen all the time, so the crossover is no more canon than the Family Guy/Simpsons crossover. If Flash goes to an alternate reality, we should include information on that reality, as it is part of the story of the shows. What I said before in a previous post is that similar to the Ben 10/Generator Rex crossover (check it out on the Ben 10 wiki), we include whatever information of the other show that is given to us through the crossover episode. Whichever characters are included in the crossover, we add, but only with information given to us through the special. But The Flash show has Multiverses as a major part of the story arc. It isn't like Ben 10 where there is one, non-canon trip into another dimension. There is lots of between-Multiverse travel in The Flash, and if Earth-2 was included on our wiki, Supergirl should be as well.
