Talk:Spider-Man villains

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've moved the list of enemies on Spider-Man supporting characters to this page. It will need cleanup. --HKMARKS 18:33, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why doesn't this article come up on search?

Why does this article not come up when you plug "Spider-Man villains" into the search engine?

It depends what search engine you're using. It's a fairly new page and sometimes it takes a while for such pages to get indexed by search engines like Google. In addition, once they're indexed, more popular pages that have been around longer will show up earlier in the search results. Category:Spider-Man villains is the second Google result. Also, some search engines might just not index Wikipedia pages. In that case it won't show up at all.
If you didn't find it in the Wikipedia search function, though, you might have just misspelled something. It was the first result for me. -HKMARKS 03:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cardiac

I remember a villain named "Cardiac" from one of the Spider-Man collectible card series. I think his power was to cause heart attacks. Was he just a one-shot or what? I remember I liked his costume: blue with white lines (reminiscent of EKG lines), and a cudgel. Can anyone help me out on this? --NewtΨΦ 16:03, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind, I found him here Cardiac (comics), but that article is new since I last checked. --NewtΨΦ 16:05, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jack O' Lantern

Why is Jack O' Lantern listed as one of Spidy's greatest foes? The article on Jack himself proclaims that he was a small time villian. --71.109.37.168 23:19, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Two reasons, probably: one, the first (Jason Macendale) became the Hobgoblin and was definitely not small time, and the (Daniel Berkhart) became Mysterio, also not small time. Two: the page needs to be entirely reorganized. -HKMarks 02:51, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cardiac merge

Per WP:WAF and WP:NOT. There's little more than plot summary in Cardiac (comics), which can be pared down to about a paragraph worth of information to add to the character's entry on this list. --NewtΨΦ 12:38, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Survey

[edit] Discussion

  • While I think this should be merged, it may be better to merge with Spider-Man supporting characters. --NewtΨΦ 12:43, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
  • It should not be merged. If it's not clear if he's a villain or supporting character, he can't just be merged with one over the other. Also, he's been a Thunderbolt. Too much history for a merge. --HKMarksTALKCONTRIBS 15:25, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

There absolutely should not be a merge. This page is a list of Spider-Man villains, not a place to put in complete articles about them. Cardiac is already listed and linked. The idea that the two should be merged us a joke.Jayunderscorezero 02:33, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added two

I just added Scorpion and Hydro-Man to the list. Anyone have any objections to those two? 22:17, 26 October 2006

[edit] Added a really bad one

The Fifth Avenue Phantom is probably the worst of the '67 animated series' villains.

[edit] Chance

There's a villain named Chance who fought Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man #299 and #336. He's a mercenary and his name is Nicholas Powell.
