Another phase of the Category Cleanup is to start REVIEWING the pages in each and if they apply to the characters they are currently tagged to.

With over 3700 entries, Category:Heroes turned to the Dark Side needs a serious clearing out. I'm finding far too many characters who were never heroes being tagged with this.

It must be understood that a character MUST have at one point been a Captial-H Hero, and not just an "average good guy". Just having once been "good" is not enough. Being "Average" is not enough. The character MUST HAVE faced a point in their lives where they MADE a DECISION to be Heroes. Then later slide into evil.

Which DOES NOT include Good Guy Professions such as Police, Agents, and Soldiers. Cause any average guy can enroll or enlist in those and STILL NEVER make a decision to be Good or Evil. This is why such organizations and groups have Awards, Medals, and Commendations for a select few who GO ABOVE AND BEYOND the call of their duty. Making them Heroes among their fellows. Which means "the fellows" are not considered as heroes by their organization or group.

On otherwords, it is possible for a cop to have always been corrupt, they just did not have the opportunity until joining the police force. Same for soldiers who go overboard embracing killing and or become mercenaries.

Remember, as with ALL Villains, there needs to be readily identifiable Malicious Intent and being Wicked Doing Evil.
