Death Rattle and Ventriloquist II both need to be added as well.

Page Move

Uhm, why was this page moved fro List of Batman villains to List of Batman enemies? That possessive form is really grating. It replaces a vaugly POV-word with a very unprofessional descriptor. If the title needs to be made more objective, surely List of Batman adversaries or List of Batman antagonists would be better selections than this uber-personalization. ~CS 19:38, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Count

I've noticed that Dracula isn't mentioned at all here. He was by a landslide one of Batman's most dangerous foes, and I believe he should be mentioned. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.111.244.211 (talk) 05:32, 25 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Clayface

Why isn't Clayface listed among the major villians? Is there a specific criteria that qualifies on villian a major and another as minor? 66.109.248.114 21:07, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Basil Karlo, the first and most frequently used Clayface, is listed in the major villains: fifth one down. The other Clayfaces are listed below. Other than Matt Hagan, who has not appeared in twenty years, the others have not been used as extensively as Karlo. ~CS 23:10, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Does the frequency of uses as a character make that character any more or less signfiicant. How often have Joe Chill, Thomas or Martha Wayne appeared in comics, but are there influence any less significant? Preston Payne had great appearances throughout the 80's (particularly the Alan Moore piece). Listing some villians as major and other's as minor serve's to limit there character's and their roles in greater comics context, and is to a certain degree subjective. My best suggestion is either an alphabetical listiing or a continued list of those in order of appearance, both with the absence of major/minor. 66.109.248.114 21:04, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with this, at least to a large extent. The "major/minor" segregation is an exercise in POV judgement. Of the two listing options, alphabetic or by first appearance, I'd suggest alpha since that is the more intuitive of the two.
I can though see splitting the "signature" villains to the lead section. This list though would be different from the current "major" to a minor degree.

Cain

The picture of David Cain is actually a picture of Lex Luthor. Does anyone have a picture of Cain or should we just not have a picture?
