Freeze (and Hatter) have been in the TV series; the first four in the TV's film. They've all been in multiple incarnations of cartoons - on voice-notability, you've got Hammil as Joker, Warner as Ra's (and Barbeau as Catwoman) lending those three some minor brownie points on being potentially more widely known. Black Mask is moving up, but far too recent - purportedly around/involved during Knightfall and No Man's Land, he's barely (not?) mentioned in the TPBs of the former, and similarly in the latter (if memory serves). His notoriety is in the very recent past, and in particular Stephanie's (alleged) death. Bane has been around since he broke Bruce and was himself snapped by AzBat, but only barely. He lurked towards the end of No Man's Land, and was Ubu for Ra's, but he's famous for that one - albeit enormous - moment. Harley, Hatter, Croc, Clayface, Firefly, Strange and the Ventriloquist... Only the first four have any kind of widespread recognition - and Firefly is rubbish, anyway; Strange is one-note and the Ventriloquist, well, he's not on a par with the higher-ups, is he? He claimed the earthquake as his work, and has turned up a fair bit. He's notable, but not AS notable. Harley's a sidekick. The Hatter was in the 1960s TV show, true, so maybe he should be a candidate. Croc is a great villain, and the Clayfaces have longevity, but not the innovative Bat-villain streak, nor particularly widespread recognition:
183:'s above, that it is currently unclear what lasting impact the character of Damien Wayne will have to the overall history of Batman, and beyond that I would argue that his inclusion teeters on the "in-universe" problem when writing about fiction. To those reading the current storyline, the character is significant. To those familiar with Batman as a movie character, nostalgic TV character or widely-known cultural icon though, the character of Damian Wayne is currently a blip (or less). There have been many characters added over the decades that were intended by their writers to be extraordinarily important in the long run, but have since been left by the wayside. Hindsight will undoubtedly tell us if Damien Wayne is important or not. Until it does though, he's still just a character used sporadically in Elseworlds stories (as 147:
represents, along with te four supermen, DC's major push towards both 90's era grim'n'gritty, and the editorial push towards second generation characters for their falgship characters, not unlike barry to wally, hal to kyle, Katar to carter to carter to ..., Ollie to Connor, and so on. because of his position editorially and so on, I'd say his effects relative to market forces, publication history, and so on, matter more. THe 'son' theing's FAR less likely to last than Helena Kyle being Helena Kyle-wayne, given that whole fullpager in Catwoman. So let's drop all three, but if other convincing arguments for Azrael arise, then I can be counted supporting his inclusion.
876:, but she's still well above the line. And she's in the cartoon, too. ;o) She's the second female, head-and-shoulders above her more recent challenger. (N.B. Just occured to me that there's not a "Romantic interest" section with Vicki Vale and Silver St Cloud... are they relevant, or rightly kept to the "Supporters" page..? Vicki, for example, is probably better known than many of those listed (Certainly more so than Lucius, Renee, Harvey and Talia), almost solely because of Ms Basinger.) Frankly, Ivy is of a higher rank than Ra's, much as I like him. Easily so.. 157:
numerous other Elseworlds. The argument that only charcters that are part of most of the 75 year history is rediculous as that would only allow for Batman, Alfred, Oracle, Nightwing, and a few villains like Catwoman and the Joker. If this mandate were followed through then there would be an incomplete template. Sognofocance should be determined by who has been involved in the major events of Batman's 75 year history, not simply by the amount of time they are important.

while "Batman" may link them through to comics-Batman, it's easy enough to re-navigate to BTAS or one of the live action films and glean the "right" information. So this books should be 99% comics) BUT that should not downplay the fact that recognizability and fame and being known is an accumulation of media bombardment as well as comics-reading. So having been a part of the TV serieses or films factors into the relative fame of the characters
31: 1927:. This is a character with an extremely long history, and there are readers of wikipedia of all ages who have some memory or experience (or casual interest) in that history. Giving undue weight to characters of importance in the last 10 years in only one medium (and in the case of comics, the medium that reaches the smallest number of potential readers given that an extremely popular comic book issue is read by less than 100,000 people). 1093:...) and the West-TV series, as well as the cartoons. Man-Bat's not been realised live, and neither has the Hatter. ;o) As I said, I'm trying (for amusement value as much as anything) to come up with a complex formula for calculating positions, and one criteria is appearances. Which are VERY difficult to total up, but breezing through the ComicBookDb puts Freeze ahead of Hatter - even if it is likely incomplete and so forth! 2278:
riding high, but that's transient), and then so on down the line until Ra's. Ra's is the cut-off point for me, and, I would suggest for most non-comics-Bat fans, and casual-comics Batman fans. Ra's, Freeze and Ivy may fall in the transition zone below Scarecrow; Clayface, Croc and Hatter may rise above the second tier to meet them, but otherwise people I've talked to about this agree with that general formulation.
731:(plus Bane) should be here, but I don't think anyone else needs to be. VILLAINS should be structured to list them, then "Important" ones (so CHILL, SNAKE, MOTH and ZUCCO for the reasons given, plus other not-quite-major and the local crime bosses would fit in that subsection). I noticed there'd been some restructuring there, so I'll pop over and stick my oar in! ;o) 124:(whether supporting, allies or villains) that have had either an extremely long and notable impact on the Batman character/universe, or which have had crossover mass appeal by being featured both in comics and the large hollywood movies (i.e. characters extremely familiar to thousands or millions of people who will never read a comic book). 1124:"more"/delinking... don't see that it's necessary to do the latter to do the former, but I think the "more" is more useful and obvious than the section-link. Not sure it would cause layout difficulties per se, though. Surely if it would extend the list onto two lines, the last character already on those lines would have already done that..? 2131:. The Joker's on the cover. Quite right. Figures of the following are shown clearly: Scarecrow, Riddler, Catwoman, Harley, Penguin, Mr Freeze, Killer Croc and Two-Face. Intriguing...! All (assuming they're not the only characters) are deemed noteworthy enough to include. No Clayface, no Hatter. No Ivy. But Harley, Croc and Freeze... 328:- He is a relevant character, and will play greatly in to Batman R.I.P. and should be included in Batman family as he is the only direct biological relative Batman actually has not counting the DCAU treatment of Batman Beyond. If not Batman family then he should at least be on supporting characters as Talia is. -- 2516:
Now, fair enough, she's always broadly been an anti-hero, and rarely played the role of "super-villainess" (as per, say, Poison Ivy) - she's a thief and rarely more. She's often marginally amoral, but does follow her own code. So it's a little harsh to put her in with the Joker and the Scarecrow, but

Teams — I've voiced this else where, I'm not a fan of adding them to the character 'boxes, mostly given that characters pass in and out of teams. But if we were to add a group for them here, based on my understanding that the character had been used as part of the JSA in the 1940s (real world context

I'm obviously slightly pleased that Azrael is now in his "proper" place(!), but at what cost? I see Stephanie, Bat-Mite and Ace the Bat Hound have now gone, but Man-Bat has been kept...? That's odd logic. Dick and Barbara are Robin and Batgirl first, but Nightwing and Oracle just as notably, so those

There are millions of people who have seen the 80s/90s Batman movies but will never read a comic book, there is a new generation of people who grew up on the Animated Series and will watch the Christopher Nolan movies who will never read a comic book, there were tens of thousands of people who fondly

In the DCU he's not much of a Batman villain. Indeed, he's one of the "super-powered" Bat-villains (either himself or through the use of a super-technological instrument). Such characters have typically been the "lesser"-used villains in the comics (for various reasons), though more used in animation

probably explains my point better than I would myself. While I realize Lady Shiva and the League of Assassins have existed in one form or another since the late 60s to 70s, their prominence has been largely in the last 10 years (arguably 3 years). Furthermore, if you ask someone who has dedicatedly
556:
JEAN PAUL VALLEY shouldn't be listed as a Batman, he should be there as "AZRAEL" (Dick has also worn the cowl; Alfred has moonlighted on occasion; Jean-Paul was in it for a very short space of time, and it is not useful or relevant to have him there alongside BRUCE WAYNE - it gives undue reference to

Extending the included - the sticking point is always going to be that word: "major." There has to be a cut off, but for that to stick, there needs to be a ranked list. (Should I try to plug numbers into my pseudo-mathemaniacal formula and produce a suggestion..?! ;o)) And that will be controversial

The infobox is a collection of handy links. The "most likely to be used links", even. As such, it needs to reflect viewer demand as much as possible. Assuming that the majority of users will be after information on comics (which is likely a safe bet - if searching for the films or multiple cartoons,

And the second paragraph closes "Wayne realized he needed to regroup in mind and body and asked Dick Grayson to give up being Nightwing for a time and be 1280:
Shiva and the League of Assassins are on the LIST OF BATMAN FAMILY ENEMIES page (although the League should be better represented and linked); RICHARD DRAGON is on the LIST OF SUPPORTING CHARACTERS page, and lowly at that - rightly. Henri Ducard should be there if a "Trained Wayne" list is required,
1253:
Generally my input to this template has been to try to minimize the number of links to those with the largest possible appeal, on the theory that those interested in lesser characters or storylines can find them in the broader articles and linked Lists. Basically as this is the broadest navbox, I'd

Probably trod on a few toes by reinserting Mr.Freeze but COME ON. He was a lead villain in one of the films, and the fact that everyone and their uncle considers it the worst film ever made doesn't alter the fact that from a subjective viewpoint it's just as valid as the others. He was in the 60s TV
1127:
I say the comics should be standing alone, proudly, head-and-shoulders above all but the creators. But I realise I'm all-but alone on that..! ;o) And that honestly wasn't my intention on wanting to downgrade the "Alternate" lists. I just don't think they are on equal footing, which might be inferred
1004:
I don't see a big problem with adding Vicki Vale to supporting characters, except that we may be opening floodgates. I think the character was a major character at one time, and there are those who may wish to find the character. However, who but a die-hard fan would have a clue who Silver St. Cloud
1000:
This isn't a list page, it's a NavBox, so we should avoid listing characters twice. AzBat and Catwoman (and possibly the Riddler) are obviously question marks (no pun intended : ) - So let's start a new thread below to discuss them. (Note that we still haven't finished with Lady Shiva and the League
178:
Well, I'm glad you've joined the discussion (brief though it is so far). Criteria for a template like this is obviously tricky as there are differing opinions on the relative significance of characters. Recently you (referring to User:24.164.136.207) have insisted on the inclusion of Damian Wayne,

I've reverted a few recent additions to the template, specifically Damien Wayne, Azrael and Renee Montoya. No prejudice against the editors who added these (or the characters themselves) but previous consensus regarding this template was to try to keep it as simple as possible, stressing characters
2932:
Hmm, we should probably be wary of including too many villains as well as too few but it's definitely true that there's a large number of Batman villains and the amount included here is pitiful. I'd definitely include Mr.Freeze, Bane, Mad Hatter, Killer Moth, Ventriloquist, Killer Croc and possibly
2415:
Villains — Again, in general I'm in favor of including most that have been mass marketed inside and outside of the comics. That includes the seven currently in the 'box plus the list I posted up page. The intent of the 'box, IIUC, is to hit the major articles of the topic. The elements here are the

assume awareness of comics - what it can't do is assume great, deep and broad knowledge of deep continuity issues. Hence, of course, Azrael being an ally, not a Batman. It's confusing, misleading and only of interest to those deeply into continuity - and they'll know, or find it elsewhere. AzBat is

Short form of the above: Keep it small, keep it focused, keep its attention on only those things recognizable to any interested party of the last 50 years. This is the not a complete overview, this is the Table of Contents to the 15 chapters in a beginner's book about The Batman. If someone wants

My philosophy about character and item inclusion on this particular navbox has been to restrict it to characters with the largest possible reader awareness, regardless of medium. This navbox is intended to be the "Batman Page 1" wikipedia source. As such it can't assume an awareness of comics, it

My major concern with the current look is the large amount of whitespace on the right side, which adds to the overall size without corresponding content (a major issue with a box at the bottom of so many pages). That said, I have no problem with "Batman" and "Detective Comics" being in the navbox,
403:
Yeah, I'm probably over-thinking this, but I really don't want to see this navbox constantly tweaked by each temporary change to a character that happens in a comic story arc. I'm certain in 1 year, or 5, or 10, the Riddler will be a villain again when a new writer takes over Detective Comics, and

Catwoman - Given an overview of the character, she is not "just" or "first and foremost" one thing. Throughout the comics the character has moved from crook to love interest to confidant many times. Part of that is that the character has taken on aspects of a reluctant hero, or an anti-hero, which

I think (and not just because I suggested them - honest! :o)) that the "more" links are really quite important. This is meant to be (as far as I understand) a kind of "idiot proof" quick-link box to facilitate easy navigation. So a non-exhaustive list needs an "also" "etc." or "more" - even if the

Plus, yes, he's cross-media. But there's already an infobox dealing with the films (at least), and Batman IS a comics character first and foremost. That said, BATMAN and DETECTIVE COMICS will suffice, but should be higher - LIST OF BATMAN COMICS/"Publications" should be a left-hand field link like

hard to realise which people are "Properly" on which teams. In any case, having a link to the team from the character isn't as bad as the reverse - i.e. If a JLA infobox were to try and include Vixen and Max Lord, there might be a concern to raise over that logic. But linking back to JLA/JLI from

Bill Finger NEEDS to be here. Jerry Robinson probably ought to be, too. The key rest are rightly on a separate list page, but Bob Kane is not the sole creator of Batman, and it is the duty of an Encyclopedia - and much, much, much shame on Mr Greenberger for this omission - to make sure that is
1971:
On that note, I really think it is an oversight to not include Bane, Mr. Freeze, Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Black Mask and Mad Hatter on a list of Batman's main villains considering their cross-media appearances and relative popularity amongst comic/movie/tv fans, and significance to the Batman

Hello, just want to throw my 2 cents into this discussion. For the most part I agree with most of the proposed additions to the list that J Greb suggest. Considering that the "Batman Family" list includes Bat Mite and Ace the Bat Dog, I think the inclusion of a few major villains really wont be

comment is this: I'm reverting again. User:24.164.136.207 mentions in his last edit something about "2 to 1" for inclusion and I'd like to see that count. Myself, ThuranX and Jc37 seem to all have a problem with the character's inclusion, and I only see one person who continues to add it. -

Dunno about Catwoman. (or Riddler for that matter.) I seem to recall some discussions, but I think that that's something that will need to be discussed at the WikiProject talk page, since the villain/anti-hero/hero/ambivilent money-maker characters can be problematic in placing. For now, it's

That said, as much as you or I may think she's a "flash in the pan", she's probably "here to stay", and is already more famous than many long standing villains. I'd leave her off, as she still doesn't rate compared to even the Mad Hatter, except that I guearantee we'd be constantly seeing her

However this is my opinion, so I'm starting a new conversation thread here to see how other editors feel about the scope of this template, what characters (if any) should be added or removed going forward, and what is the best criteria to use in judging any such thing on a case by case basis.
2147:
Yes to JLA (if teams are added), that's obvious. No to JSA: wrong Earth, needlessly complicated - is Helena Wayne to be included...? Bruce wasn't on the Titans team, so that's unnecessary - this is the BATMAN box, not Bat-Family. (Hmmm....) Yes to BATMAN AND THE Outsiders. Maybe even yes to
351:
I recently changed the groups that both Catwoman and The Riddler are listed under from villains to supporting cast, as neither Catwoman nor The Riddler act as villains anymore. The way I see it, if Man-Bat and Red Robin can be included in this group, then so should Catwoman and The Riddler.

How about changing the font size a bit? On my screen (1280x960 res on 19" CRT) I can hardly read the various items. What I can read rather clearly are the links to pages outside of wikipedia which are set in a different font style. I think increasing the fontsize by one or two would benefit

In my opinion, none of the three characters I've reverted match either of those criteria, as all three are relative to the 75+ years of Batman's history, extremely recent characters, not even taking into account that they have no crossover mass market appearances that I'm aware of.

It's not going to be possible to produce a non-complex inclusion guidelines, because it's going to have to rely on subjectivity somewhere along the line. I have produced a VERY complicated pseudo-mathematical calculation index, but I don't know whether that wouldn't just make things

It seems overly harsh to say "he's not much of a Batman villain," since name-recognition, ease-of-identification and general "known"-ness are as much a part of being a Batman villain as carrying out heinous crimes. Dr Phosphorus fails on both counts (widely unknown; looks like Ghost

Snake, Moth and Zucco may be mildly important for those reasons (although I don't necessarily agree!) but that would be why they're worthy of high-ish mention on the full VILLAINS page, not really in the BATMAN

Since Batman is a comics character, why isn't there a section on the MAIN titles he appears in? A tiny link buried at the bottom isn't good enough, because it's quite an integral thing to the character. Surely.

From the other perspective, if he was named and cowled by Bruce - so was Dick. If he was the star of Batman - so was Dick. The name "Robin" refers to Dick Grayson. And Jason Todd and Tim Drake. <Pause:

I disagree that Shiva is "too recent" though - a (small, but crucial) part of DEATH IN THE FAMILY, she was absolutely integral to KNIGHTFALL, too. But I actually think in this case it should be

I doubt you'll convince me about Mr Freeze. Except for the appearance in a Bat-flop by Ahnold, he doesn't come close to even Mad Hatter. From what I can tell, he's about equal to Firefly.

At first impulse, I'd want to ask why Firefly, and Black Mask, and why not Killer Moth. (And what about Lady Shiva, arguably more "notable" than most of the suggested additions.)

Now, the change I made for The Riddler I suppose could be contentious, but I really think Catwoman should not be listed as a villain. She hasn't acted in that capacity in years.

Batman has one of the richest rogue's gallery of any superhero. There should denfinately be more villains added to the template. Here are the ones I suggest:

However, Mr. Freeze was protrayed on film by Arnold Schwarzenegger. And though the film itself "flopped", the fame of the actor has lent "fame" to Mr. Freeze.

Compare that to Man-Bat. Though he's opposed Batman occaisionally due to his feral nature/brainwashed/coerced, he's no villain, and Dr. KL is clearly an ally.
