Batman Family team page

Maybe one already exists but I haven't seen it anywhere around. It's an organized team with a leadership and hierarchy, and they're featured in thousands of comics. Is there a reason this page shouldn't exist?

Is it clear how membership would be judged?

@v_scarlotte_rose: Assuming the page is allowed, I think the membership at present would be just Batman, Alfred, the Robins and Batgirls; namely the people who work with Batman's sanction and oversight and get their resources from him. I wouldn't include Catwoman and the Birds of Prey because they're relatively autonomous. Batwoman has been distinctly separate from the Batman Family since the start of the New 52 (and for most of her continuity before that), so unless there's some change in the status quo, she wouldn't be included either.

Oh, and Titus, because he's the brains of the organization

Eh...

Other wiki sites have a page for it and it has had its own series as well.

I think we used to have one, but it was removed since it led to people creating pages for Spider-Man family, Wolverine family, Deadpool family, etc, etc, plus all sorts of characters were added to the pages. There should be a thread somewhere but i can't find it.

@fesak: Those other groups aren't really organized or official teams, though. This one is.

I also think there should be a Batman Family a page on the site.

Yeah, this was a while ago, so i don't remember the details, but i think we should have it.

Just keep in mind that people will probably trying to add all bat-related characters as members, and add the team to all issues where Batman appears, so it could lead to some extra work fixing that up.

We can leave a note close to the description and there's that page history now.

To be fair, this is the case with almost any team on this site...

There's a Batman Incorporated page though.

Yeah, but that's a much bigger group with broader aims, and they've been disbanded. They can't be attributed to appearances of the Batfamily before Morrison's run.

The Batman Family page was deleted because of abuse, the associations were out of control for members and appearances and cause users were putting huge amounts of text in the description for every "member" copied from the character pages, same thing happened with the Batman Villains page.

@pikahyper: Why don't we give it another shot and be strict about the content? If the Batman Villains concept page is kept around just for hits, I can't imagine why this wouldn't fulfill the same requirement.

@citizenbane: kinda easy to say when you're not the one that has to look after it and deal with the submissions but if you feel strongly about it I guess I'll go along, make sure you include a note on the page that not just anyone should be added and proper usage for associating it.

it can't be any worse than the supermen of the multiverse and the platitudes of superman analogues erroneously added to that...

I'll make the page in a few days when I don't have exams to deal with

How the heck can you still have exams? Are not all forms of major schools are starting these next 2 weeks?

@drgnx: I'm in college...

@citizenbane: Oh okay, your Colleges have terms that run outside of the following time frames? ;

• Sept - Dec
• Sept - Apr
• Jan - Apr
• May - Aug

I guess Batcow is out of the qualifications?

BTW, Gratz on your evolution to Mod Bane!!!

@drgnx: Beginning of Jan to the end of Apr, beginning of July to the end of Nov.

Thanks.

Done; made up some rules, wrote a short blurb for each member and added 60 odd appearances. Also followed the page to be notified of edits.......that's how the follow system works, right?

What about Luke Fox,Carrie Kelly(current),Harold Alnut?

I added Harold under the family's Friends tab. As for Luke and Carrie, we should wait and see how involved they become with the Family before adding them. Carrie's just a random girl who knew Damian right now.

Well, he has been working with Bruce and he's currently operating out of Gotham

@dondave: Doesn't meet the parameters for inclusion into the Family yet. Like I said, let's wait and see.

@citizenbane: Not sure bout the mod notes, the length will most likely turn away readers and be ignored by editors.

@pikahyper: It's just a temporary thing. It'll be removed after a while.

@citizenbane: oh ok. oh and images are supposed to be right aligned.
