Petroleum Jelly - Vaseline or KY

I think that a tweak needs to be made to this entry. Vaseline and KY are sitting under the same heading - Petroluem Jelly.

The reason why I'm worried is because KY kelly is a lubricant that can be used with condoms, and petroleum jelly absolutely mustn't be used in these circumstances because it makes the condom deteriorate.

I know this article (which is great, btw) is not about this issue, but I don't like to see vaseline and KY sitting under the same heading, when they are completely different things. I'm not saying that KY shouldn't be listed, but please don't connect it with Vaseline/petroleum jelly, because people might thing they are interchangeable, and they aren't.
