I was thinking a new category should be added, called "Villainous Organizations" or something along those lines. This would be for groups like Kobra, Jokerz, Society of Shadows, and Intergang which aren't really supervillain teams, but still groups made up of "bad guys."
--User:VseslavBotkin, April 15, 2012 (UTC), what form of keeping time are you using? It's 6:08 central time where I am if that helps.
- I personally dislike the name; also, with our naming conventions, the second word shouldn't be capitalized. I wished you waited for a response before adding it.
- We do have Superheroes and Supervillains categories, but those are pretty outdated and not well defined; your suggestion of one for organizations would need some clear boundaries too. --Tupka217 (talk|wall) 14:48, April 16, 2012 (UTC)
- A possible suggestion is that you go with just Category:Organizations, and not try to assign an out-of-universe judgement to the category. After all, JL(U) goes to some length to establish that lines between people aren't black and white. This isn't the Super Friends. It's a more sophisticated, nuanced approach to the DCU. Is Luthor evil, or does he actually have commonality with Batman and Green Arrow? They all want to make sure that the metahumans don't abuse their powers. Is every part of Cadmus evil, or are they, to some extent, hardworking public servants, acting on the orders of a well-intentioned POTUS? I tend to think you'll find categorization a lot easier if you stay away from assigning people points on a moral compass. czechout ☎ ✍ 21:32: Tue 17 Apr 2012
