I would say that From Wildthyme with Love does have the Blue Angel Iris. Both are a bit more ruthless than their other incarnations and look like a young Jane Fonda. I would say that calling the Fonda Iris a future incarnation is no different than calling her the sixth Iris, it contradicts other established information, but is valid nonetheless. This is one of the reasons why I think Iris would work better on separate pages.

As for Iris' incarnations being a bit fuzzy, I assume you are referring to the Beryl Reid Iris and the Katy Manning Iris. Both are similar, but there are differences. Any story with Iris travelling with just Tom (Verdigris) is the Reid Iris. Any story where Iris is shown to be interested in having real estate is the Reid Iris. Also, the Reid Iris is almost always seen wearing a green cardigan. Like the Reid Iris, the Manning Iris often wears a large hat, but unlike the Reid Iris, the Manning Iris has much more variety in her dress sense and a tendency to call people "chuck". Any story (aside from the ones with the Fonda Iris) where Iris is travelling with Panda features the Manning Iris.

As for other fuzzy Irises, I agree that there are some which are impossible to decide. In that case, just create a new page for that Iris. Logically, the Iris seen in Gimme Shelter is probably the third or sixth Iris, but the story gives absolutely no hints as to which Iris it is, so she deserves a new page.

Is there a particular story which features a fuzzy Iris that you're thinking of?
