Submitting Draft:Bruce Wayne (The Batman film series) to article mainspace
I've spent the last few months putting together an extensive standalone article on the Matt Reeves/Robert Pattinson iteration of Batman (from The Batman film), and I've been told I can't officially move it from its current status as a draft article until I notify the talk page.

Strongly oppose the creation of that article. He's been in one movie and the entire thing is just a WP:FORK of The Batman (film). There are no notable differences between this Batman and Pattinson's Batman that can't be described at The Batman's article. The phenomenon of creating separate articles for film incarnations of comic book characters is terrible in general and I will strongly oppose efforts to create useless cruft articles about every single new incarnation of Batman and Spider-Man and whatnot.

It does look like the draft just has a lot of details copied from the film article plus unsourced extra stuff. We should only be splitting that off from the film article if that article gets too big or it makes more sense to have it separate, but most of that stuff is integral to the film and should definitely be kept there. There also isn't really going to be any major reception info specifically about the character that does not already apply to the film as a whole. - adamstom97 (talk) 08:26, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Far too early for an individual article. The character has only appeared in one film and, being the protagonist, it's not independent enough from the film itself. When he's appeared in more films or in the TV shows planned, this can perhaps be discussed again, but it seems like articles on film versions of comic book characters are written earlier and earlier now, when they're unnecessary. —El Millo (talk) 19:43, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As the creator of the draft, I wholeheartedly agree with you. A single film isn't enough to establish notability, but the character seems to have a promising future. Painting17 (talk) 16:27, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the
