If anyone wishes to have discussions they are afraid will be shut down by an Admin which does not violate VW or Fandom rules, feel free to have it on my wall. I never close or delete things from my wall. I don't really agree with that. Not everyone agrees on who is a villain and who isn't, so it ISN'T completely binary or unambiguous. For every character that is fairly unambiguously evil, there are ones for whom it is more debtable. I myself don't consider Catwoman to be a villain, and yet here she is. And, honestly, once someone like Selina is on this site, then a lot of other characters deserve to be here as well.

And by "unofficial villain" I mean a character who the writers don't necessarily intend to be seen as a villain but nevertheless is seen that way because of the badness of their actions. That's an "unofficial villain". A character who doesn't have "I'm a Villain" or "He's a Villain" in bright neon letters over his head, but still counts as one based on what he does.
