robin's namesake - robinhood?
contents copied over from Talk:Cartoon characters named after people
Robin is named after Robin Hood? Any evidence to support this? Batman is named after a flying animal, so it seems logical that his partner would also be named after a flying animal. ike9898 16:00, Feb 14, 2004 (UTC)~
- You are right too ! Robin (comics) has the following line :
- "The name "Robin the Boy Wonder" and the medieval look of the original costume was taken both from the semi-legendary hero of the poor, Robin Hood, as well as the red-breasted American Robin, which continued the "flying animal" motif of Batman. " Jay 16:06, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- I'm not saying that you're wrong, but I was looking for evidence stronger than a quote from Wikipedia. Like for example something from the comic itself or from one of the creators that indicates that Robin Hood is what they had in mind. ike9898 14:47, Feb 27, 2004 (UTC)
Concerning the controversy with the new animated teen titan, it would seem that the Robin in this series is Dick Grayson. In the episode where Starfire goes to the future, she encounters Robin in the form of Nightwing.
--Yarvin 03:58, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- I believe the creators have said that he is neither dick greyson or jason todd. he seems to be a little of both. his history seems to be dick greyson's (starfire romance, being leader of teen titans (essentially the new teen titans of the '80s) also, the bat-imp character "larry" was originally called nosyarg kcid, or somthing like that. but his character, i believe, is supposed to be just as much tim drake as it is supposed to be dick greyson.
- Also, interestingly (now this is neither here nor there in this particular discussion) the creators have chosen to distance him from batman, never using the name batman in the series...

Back to the Robin Hoodconfusion, Detective Comics 38 briefly mentioned him (don't remember the exact sentence). So yes, it would seem that there is a connection.---SA-
Unfortunately I don't have issue numbers to quote you. However in the DC Heroes RPG 1st Edition Batman Sourcebook Nightwing's write up features a page from a DC Comic (I think it's from The Untold Legend of Batman). In one panel Batman presents Dick with the name and costume of Robin. Dick says, "It's perfect! The legendary Robon Hood was always one of my favorite heroes." Outside of comics I can quote Bob Kane's autobiography, Batman & Me. On page 46 Kane writes, "I named him after Robin Hood, whom I loved as a kid, as played on the screen by Fairbanks. Both Robins were crusaders, fighting against the forces of evil. Robin Hood fought against injustice in the Sgerwood Forest of King Arthur's day, while Robin battled contemporary crime in Gotham Cuty. I even dressed Robin in the tunic, cape, and shoes of Robin Hood's era, and drew his trunks to be like chain mail." It seems to me that Fairbanks was Kane's favorite actor. He based Batman on Fairbank's Zorro, and Robin on his Robin Hood. --Talison 06:47, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
I'd just like come in and say that on page three of Dectective Comics #38 (First apperance), on the lower right-hand corner they state this: "And thus Dick Grayson, by the hand of fate, istransformed into that astonishing phenomon that young robinhood of today -- ROBIN THE BOY WONDER!" So this may or may not be proof enough for you. If you wish, I can take a screengrab.
separators
It seems like the separators come and go on a whim. Can we get some discussion here about whether or not they should be put in or not? I personally like them, as it causes the infoboxes to line up with the right paragraph. For example, right now, the Jason Todd infobox bleeds about halfway down the Tim Drake section, and then his infobox starts later. --DropDeadGorgias (talk) 17:14, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

no it's not elsworlds. elseworlds did not start until 1994 DKR was 86
- It's still an alternate reality. It's not in continuity. --DrBat 11:13, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
DKR has been sited many times as one of the basis for the Elseworld's line. --Talison 06:49, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
Elseworlds was started in 1991 with the logo (Brian Boru is Awesome)
Canonical?
"Both of these stories take place in a future that has not come to pass in current DC continuity, and so neither is considered canonical." appears in this article, however in the Batman: The Dark Knight Returns article it says "The Dark Knight Returns takes place in a timeline that has not come to pass in the continuity of current DC Comics, but is still considered at least partially canon as it makes use of post-Crisis characters." Which one do I belive, and should this be renedered similar over both articles? Zombiebaron 01:08, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hey. Furst, might be a better idea to add your comment to the bottom of the page next time. Anyway, a simple explanation of "the wikipedian in charge didn't know any better (at the time)" might apply to the B:tDKr, article. Neither is really wrong, though. Confusing, perhaps, but not wrong. Believe this one, I guess. I'll make a few changes to the other article to make it clearer. ACS (Wikipedian) 03:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Wow, what a strange wiki...new stuff on the bottom 'e says...anyway thanks. Zombiebaron 03:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
earth 2 - noncanonical? SAVE Earth 2!!!
Should Robin (Dick Greyson) of Earth 2 be in the concanon section? Earh 2 was and I would assume IS canonical still (although no longer in existance, correct me if i'm wrong.) --R66y 10:37, Jan 17, 2006
- Most definately! Infinite Crisis has Kal-El speaking about the E2 Grayson. In general, I beleve E2 heroes should be given their due as they have shaped the contempo characters. I would also like to add that it would interesting if someone could locate an image of Grayson in his Batman-esque costume of the late-70s. 04:14, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- "Infinite Crisis has Kal-El speaking about the E2 Grayson." Where does this appear? --Chris Griswold 11:16, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- QUOTE from the article: ". Kal-L, the Earth-Two Superman, indicated that Richard Grayson in his world was not a better man than the one in Earth-One (Nightwing)." My point is, Earth 2 may not exist in the minds of most of the post-Crisis denizens, but it was a reality that effected the broader DCU. This is unlike the Robin of Frank Miller's Batman universe or the various Elseworlds incarantion. I would yes to canonical. Jackbox1971 20:45, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- Fine, but where does Kal-El talk about him? --Chris Griswold 22:01, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- I realize now what the confussion is. I sloppily mentioned Kal-El (Earth 1) when I meant Kal-L. But my point is that DC seems to have no qualms about bringing the multiverse denizens back to speak of the dead. To this degree, I feel that a character who existed in the multiverse who has not been retconed should be accepted as canonical. Jackbox1971 00:07, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Timothy "Jeff" Drake
I read Batman #441 - the issue in which Dick Grayson calls Tim "Jeff" - yesterday, and it is clear to me that it in no way refers to it being his middle name. If anything, it looks like an editorial error that - who knows? - may be attributed to Tim's being a new character who probably had a number of proposed names. If anyone wants it, I can upload a scan of the Jeff panel. --Chris Griswold 07:08, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yes please. I think you should write a section on it too. Zombiebaron 14:29, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Tim's combat skills
I don’t understand what is meant by 'Despite his combat skills not being the match of Grayson's (although there are some intimations that they are far superior to Todd's)'. If it refers to comparing Tim to Dick and Jason when they were robin then that would be ok but could be made clearer. If it compares to them at present then that’s just crap issue 29 of the Teens Titians Jason Todd beats Tim pretty bad and has showed himself to be almost at match to batman and Dick in several issues of batman and nightwing —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Majinginyu (talk • contribs) .

Merge proposal: Just Imagine Stan Lee's Robin
The content of Just Imagine Stan Lee's Robin is not article worthy. The undiscussed split off was sloppy. It looks like it should really be part of this article. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 22:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Survey
- Merge as nom. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 22:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Merge - Technically all the "alternate" entries in this article could be split to create stubs. However, unless they are notable outside their single appearance in a special/anuual/mini-series/whatever, I don't think that they should be individually split. That said, I do wonder if the "other comic continuities" section might not be better as a separate list. (Compare to List of alternate versions of Batman.) - jc37 02:16, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Split
Well, I've split off data into what has become alternate versions of Robin and Robin in other media. I've also made a template for the big R and moved a few categories. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 00:07, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Nice job : )
Personally, I think we can (and should) entirely remove the alternate and media sections from this page, and just have the two links at the bottom under "see also". - jc37 00:13, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm. I never thought of that. I guess that's better than stars and lists. Done. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 00:31, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Split proposal: other continuity Robins
Comic Book Infobox
I deliberately added this here since it is the most logical place to look for title information named after the character. Also placed it next to the Drake section since it relates most closely to him. — J Greb 06:38, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
Earth-Two
In recent times, I have come upon a stub-length article dedicated exclusively to the Earth-Two Robin. I fear the main editor of that article might not see why I have decided to redirect it to "Robin (comics)", and reverse my edit, so I'm posting this here with hope of confirming my assumption that most editors would agree on merging an article about Earth-Two Robin with either "Robin (comics)" or "Alternate versions of Robin". Please consider the following factors: 1- The article which I redirected here had been copied almost in its entirety from the "Batman (Earth-Two)" article, with no sign of an "in use" template or something like that to mark the editor's intentions to actually erase the parts not about the Earth-Two Robin. 2 - The Earth-Two Robin article suffered something suffered by most Earth-Two articles at some point of their history: editors (subjectively) treat the article's subject as the original "superseded" Golden Age version, rather than as a Silver Age creation intended to solve how an ongoing incarnation of a character served with both the Justice Society and the Justice League. 3 - Most of Robin's Golden Age career is still attributed to the mainstream Dick Grayson (as evidenced by "52", week 30), though presumably somehow queezed into the Silver/Modern age timeline. All you can say about Earth-Two Dick Grayson which is not redundant when you already have a section about Robin in the Golden Age is: "Joins the Justice Society. Becomes ambassador to South Africa. Dies in Crisis". Three sentences does not warrant an article. So, what does everyone else think? --Ace ETP 04:13, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
- There are over two dozen published silver age tales of this version of Robin, including a JLA/JSA crossover in which they two appeared SIDE-BY-SIDE. Definitely this article including info box needs to be cleaned up...however that does not negate the fact that the publisher treated these characters separate in the Silver Age. Superman (Kal-L) and Batman (Earth-Two) were distinctly written, what is different about this version of Robin? And why is this version not considered under the above split vote of Robin in other continuities? Doesn't pre-Crisis Silver Age count? NetK 18:35, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- The sad fact is that the Earth-Two Robin isn't that much of a character. As Ace EPT points out, his biggest function was to rationalize the 1940s stories in the 1960s. Beyond that, there rally isn't much, if anything, to create an article out of. Unless, of course, you want to argue inclusion in the cats "Fictional ambassadors" and "Fictional lawyers".
- Slight side note: Could someone please explain to me, in a clear proper manner, why there is a push for the "clone" characters (those that have identical codenames and alter egos on Earth-One and Earth-Two) to be split into 2 separate articles? That is something that feels to me as being an in-continuity POV decision. — J Greb 19:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- And it creates a precedent for unnecessary articles such as "Alfred (Earth-Two)" or "Catwoman (Earth-Two)", listing those characters minimal differences to their mainstream counterparts. All-Star Dick Grayson has probably appeared on more individual pages than the Earth-Two Robin, but he does not have his own article for obvious reasons. I propose the following compromise: creating a section about the Earth-Two Robin in the Dick Grayson article, or expanding this article's section about him (and adding the Fictional ambassadors" and "Fictional lawyers" categories to whichever article becomes Earth-Two Robin's new home. --Ace ETP 21:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- Personally, I would prefer that, across the board. The only two character I can think of where the shave off of the Earth-Two information makes sense, for reasons noted above, are Superman and Batamn. For the rest of the DC properties that "survived" through the 1950s it becomes part of the publication history. — J Greb 21:47, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- Dick Grayson aka Robin of Earth-Two had several notable distinctions from the Earth-One version. For instance: 1.) he was an ambassador, 2.) he was an attorney, 3.) he was a member of his mentor's team, something the then-Robin of Earth-One never laid claim to. He was key to several plot points involving the Earth-Two Batman, for which an article is somehow merited without question, including Batman's diary which had large ramifications on the pre-Crisis universe. This Robin was shown side-by-side with the Justice Society, with Bruce Wayne/Batman (of both worlds), of Superman (of both worlds)...and these all merit articles even though we could simply tuck their entries neatly into the modern day versions. This insistence to subdue creating viable entries escapes me...there is positively no harm merited from creating a Robin entry. Further, I am simply mystified why entries to first Kal-L...then two months ago Batman (Earth-Two). This is NOT spliting an article (Robin) nor of creating a article of a minor with few published appearences. This is noting specifically the distinguishing characteristics that make this version separate. NetK 23:40, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- Bats and Dick were both on the Outsiders. Maybe not at the same time, but still. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 23:51, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- NetK's comment is that, at the time that the Earth-Two Robin was created and put into the JSA, this was the first time a sidekick was shown to have been "promoted" and "replace" his/her mentor. Any comparison to the current Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson is 40+ years after the fact.
NetK, I need you to clarify something: are you saying you are for or against the moving of the Earth-Two "clone" characters to their own, separate articles? It's hard to see from your post above if you are complaining that Robin isn't being allowed to follow the Batman and Superman examples, or if you disagree with the splits to the Batman and Superman articles. — J Greb 02:34, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

- J Greb, I welcome the fact that Superman (Kal-L) and Batman (Earth-Two) have been created...and have been allowed to exist without dispute. My sole complaint would seem to be the attack on my own contribution in the same vein using the exact same criteria and methodology used to create the other two entries. Each article should be judged by itself as to whether it should or shouldn't exist...however the fact that objectively Robin (Earth-Two) has had even more published appearences than has Batman (Earth-Two)...my only conclusion for the dispute over this article is because I myself had created it. I can see no other rationale. NetK 05:28, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
- For my part, it is not the person proposing the articles, but the articles themselves.
I can see the rationales for the Superman and Batman splits. In the case of Superman, DC went out of its way to produce material featuring the E-2 character after he was introduced in the pages of Justice League of America and, with both Crisis and Infinite Crisis kept him more or less in a pivotal role. That made for a natural "cleave point" in a over-large article. It is similar to the logic used to cleave off the Clark Kent article.
The case for Batman is slimmer, but still rests on an over large base article. The difference of character, retirement, family, and death provided a way to split off some of the information.
Dick Grayson lacks size to justify a split, and the Earth-Two character was for all intents and purposes the same as the Earth-One character. There are minor addendum: team memberships, costume changes, and professions, but much less than in the other two examples.
Personally, I don't like the splits in the Superman and Batman articles. I can accept the reasons why the happened, but I believe it sets a bad precedent. To me, these three, along with the other "clones", should have the publication history laid out in one article, with the creation of the Earth-Two versions placed in context with everything else. For Dick Grayson that would mean, 1) a section detailing the differences and mention why DC created the character for the JLA/JSA crossover, and 2) the tweaking of the Infobox to show the historical first appearance, the current revision's first appearance, and all the teams with a note reference to the E-2 section for the appropriate teams. — J Greb 06:00, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
- For my part, it is not the person proposing the articles, but the articles themselves.
- The Earth-Two Robin redirects have been reverted back to their article iterations without the discussion being finalized. I think we can all agree this situation is analogous to the one which lead to Wikipedia Comics Project members decreeing that Ultimate Marvel character articles should be merged with the mainstream Marvel ones. As the "Robin (comics)" article treats the Pre-Crisis Bruce Wayne and Earth-Two Dick Grayson differently than the other alternate universe Robins, I think it would be best to create a section about the Earth-Two Robin over at the Dick Grayson article, and link there from this page. Individual articles for the two Graysons are redundant, since their first twenty-five years of existance are exactly the same, and the later divergences can be summed up with three or four sentences. Oh, and by the way, the Earth-One/Post-Crisis Bats and Dick have both been members of the Justice League and the Outsiders. --Ace ETP 21:45, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

What The Flip?
Homosexual interpretations about the Boy Wonder at our college have been part of the academic study of Batman and Robin since psychologist Fredric Wertham asserted in Seduction of the Innocent that his research confirmed "Batman stories are psychologically homosexual." Wertham wrote, "Only someone ignorant of the fundamentals of psychiatry and of the psychopathology of sex can fail to realize a subtle atmosphere of homoeroticism which pervades the adventures of the mature 'Batman' and his young friend 'Robin.'"[4] Wertham claimed his studies of homosexual youths discovered that "The Batman type of story may stimulate children to homosexual fantasies, of the nature of which they may be unconscious."[5] The use of 'our' is POV, and this whole thing is the reason OR became against WP rules.

- It's listed in the Robin in other media page, which there is a link to in the alternate versions section, although there should be something briefly summarizing his appearances in other media. For now, I removed it, as where you put it was talking about the comic book version. I'll start working on an "other media" section. Anakinjmt 20:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Homosexual interpretation section
Admittedly ripping from Batman, I offer to the article a "homosexual interpretations" section. I rewrote and removed data as needed, trying to focus on Robin rather than Bats and be mindful that Robin hasn't always been a guy. My only hope is that it doesn't feed trolls. *Looks up* Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 21:58, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

- The Batman version and this version are pretty long... maybe we should have a whole page on gay Batman --Exvicious // + @ 19:16, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- Please no. From what I had to work with, I think the Batman article's section could use some work. Like, copyeditting, focus and shortening. Furthermore, I don't think the notability or room for growth is there. This a minority view, and one DC denounces. Unless Arkhamite comes back with hard evidence or some new "controversy" erupts, the page would just sort of sit there. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 19:32, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'm actually for splitting it into 'Homosexual Interpretations in Comics.' Batman's the big one, but there's also 'Wonder Woman's a lesbian!' and others who are perceived as gay based on <whatever>. Batman's big because of Seduction of the innocent, but it would make for a good base article. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 15:01, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'd support that. How about: Homosexual interpretations of characters in comics? And once you start that article you may find it growing to the point of needing to split off Homosexual interpretations of Batman and Robin. - jc37 15:48, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Merge Robin's costume
-Nomination- the article lists in a limited capacity to apparell of the many Robins, which could easily and seemlessly be incorperated into the Robin main article. The article draws primarily from fansites, which are not qualified sources. -66.109.248.114 (talk) 22:42, 20 February 2008 (UTC).
- Merge though it might be worthwhile to go over the the articles and sections that are {{main}} linked to to see if the information is already there as well as this article. And it's a bit disconcerting that every major section of the costume article, and most of the subs, are referrals to other articles. - J Greb (talk) 23:15, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep This is a significant article on its own merits, and the main article is a bit to big to take on any additional material (albeit still a bit bare bones in Robin's costume, admittedly).Netkinetic (t/c/@) 05:54, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

- comment- the Robin article is 16Kib long, I don't feel there is a size issue incorporated a max of 6kib of infor from the costume page (likely portions to be trimmed that are original research or from fan site). I question what material in the costume article would be significant outside the context of the Robin article, and not derived from fansite or original research. -66.109.248.114 (talk) 18:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC).
- Delete there is no point to the costume page. Any significant information (which I don't believe there is any) regarding costume changes should be mentioned in the individual character's articles (Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown). There is no reason to devote an entire article or even a section to the main article which would be considered trivia. Bookkeeperoftheoccult (talk) 10:17, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

“Infamous” catch-phrase?
What exactly is infamous about “Well said, Robin!”? It appears to be something which cropped up once in a commercial - does that make it “infamous”? It certainly doesn’t make it a catchphrase… Jock123 (talk) 23:30, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
Robin: Gayest of all Gothamites? FBI Involvement?
I move that the article include some discussion of whether Robin was intended to be a gay character.
Just look in Detective Comics #38, April 1940, at the splash page for the first Robin story, and you will see what I mean. If Bob Kane didn't mean for Robin to seem gay in that picture and the story that follows, I suspect there may have been some FBI sabotage going on in Batman comics. Consider that an FBI agent gets killed in the penultimate issue to the first Robin story, Detective Comics #36. The FBI was often known to get involved in popular culture, and maybe they didn't like masked vigilantes in stories where g-men die, so they applied some muscle and put Robin into the mythos to sabotage it by making the whole thing seem kind of "queer."
Honestly, no joking or trolling, the appearance of Robin in Detective #38 has got to be the worst character choice in the history of comics. I have too much respect for the creators of Batman to believe that they would think a street-fighter who dresses in dark colors as camoflauge for nighttime prowls of Crime Alley would bring along a boy partner dressed in bright orange and green who fights with a slingshot. It's either a bad joke that got out of hand or somebody powerful was trying to ruin the whole Batman myth before it got too popular.
And, yes, I do know what an audience surrogate is. But what red-blooded American boy wants to be Robin?!
There's something very odd about this character.

- Troll or no, you're certainly biased. And you seem to have the wrong perception of Wikipedia. We don't publish our own opinions or original research. Articles aren't for "discussing" anything, but for stating the facts as verifiably as possible. Nothing verifiable about this "sabotage" you theorize. So, don't worry about the article. Leave it to us real, neutral Wikipedians, 'kay?
- Oh, and don't forget to take your meds. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 03:04, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for that little personal attack, Ace of Aces. Really made my day.
- I meant "discussion" in an article in the sense of "analysis" or "interpretation", not "debate". In case you are having trouble distinguishing fantasy from reality, Robin is a fictional character, like Hamlet or Ebenezer Scrooge. Just about every Wikipedia article on a fictional character includes critical interpretation and analysis. So what makes the question of whether Robin appears as or was intended to be a gay character any different from the following passage from the Hamlet article?
- We are at the heart of a [sic] oedipal [sic] tragedy and the very ambivalence of his desires makes it altogether impossible for him to cope.
- I look forward to more tutorial and psychiatric advice from "real Wikipedians" as I learn how this service operates.
Settle down everyone. Assume Good Faith and lets be constructive.
Can Robin (Dick Grayson) be viewed as gay? Sure. But it's subjective and it's not in 'compliance' with how he's been portrayed. Dick, Jason and Tim (and Stephanie!) have all been shown as practicing heterosexuals. Interpretations based on their costumes as well as the closeness between young boys and their adoptive father have no basis in the internal reality shown in the comics. What your suggesting, Arkhamite, has been brought up before, normally by people itching for a fight. It's also original research. It's the sort of thing you should write a paper on, and if it gets published, then you'll possibly be cited as a source. But as it stands, Robin, in all four mainstream incarnations, is heterosexual. There is no conspiracy nor is there a cover up. If you see Robin as gay, well, that's your prerogative, but there's no in-universe substance to back you up. Dick, Jason, Tim and Stephanie were all written to be heterosexual. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 18:41, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- That's what they want you to think ;-) Paper forthcoming, but don't be surprised if someone else beats me to it with a Freedom of Information Act disclosure. Not all of Director Hoover's files were destroyed when he died.
- Then 'they' have done such a good job that 30 years of reading Batman and Robin has been edited such that I've never seen HoYay between them. I'm done here. If you want to keep up your unfounded original research, please don't do it on Wikipedia. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 19:09, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't take orders from anonymous internet gurus. Your disingenuous inference that all I have argued is that Batman and Robin are sexually involved indicates to me that you are the one interested in enforcing your personal point of view, based on those 30 years of what amounts to original research. I have yet to modify the actual content of a single article, merely to suggest changes on the discussion pages or revert vandalism. Expect more of whatever you call what I do on any Wikipedia discussion page I see fit. Discussion pages are for discussion, not shouting down reasonable suggestions.
- And I'm serious about the FOIA stuff. Don't you think that if such a secret as the one I suggest did exist, the forces protecting the secret might be watching a page like this? In that case, my postings are not original research, but in fact the opposite: calls for assistance from those who control primary source material.
- Geez, talk about Assume Good Faith. This is like discussing biology with Jerry Falwell.
On that sad note, I'd say that we're done here. You have no verifiable contributions to make, and no one has to do anything but ignore you. Like I said before, troll or no, you're biased. This little "discussion" has only proven that and so many more negative...qualities. We can't tell you what to do, but I'd advise you keep these theories to yourself. Talk pages, like articles, can be reverted and protected to avoid misuse. Similarly, abusers can be blocked if they grow to be unreasonable, persistant and intolerable. Good day to you, sir. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 19:34, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, a WikiThreat. You'll forgive me if I don't take your advice. Nothing I have posted has been abuse, and all of it has been within the Terms of Service. Theory is as theory does.
- Arkhamite, in response to your comment: "Theory is as theory does"...that is precisely why there is a dispute. However radical an entry is, the determining factor on Wikipedia is whether there is documentation outside of original research i.e. theory that this has been addressed. If there has than it could justifiably be considered for inclusion in the article. If it is simply a theory that you are proposing without outside research, then it is original research which is a no-no hear. Not because of what any of us say, simply because of the terms of service. NetK 19:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'll expect some changes in the lengthy, quite unverifiable psychoanalytical discussion of the fictional character Hamlet's motivations then. And I see nothing in the three guidelines in the Terms of Service forbidding me from utilizing non-article discussion pages to suggest that the analytical point I propose is as verifiable as the prevailing paradigm. Especially since this question of "gayness" in the Batman mythos has been discussed ad nauseam elsewhere. My inclusion of the FBI theory was merely a logical extension of "is?" to "why is?", and I never called for it to be included in the article.
- I admit paradigmatic challenges are difficult to swallow, but I clearly cited the issues of Detective Comics as original source material in issuing this suggestion. Furthermore, as pointed out previously in this thread, there is a lengthy discussion in the Batman article on the character's sexual orientation. Has Robin threatened to bring a libel suit, or am I missing something here?
- Then go take it to the Hamlet page. Your use of random Wikipedia pages to make ridiculous points about the rest of wikipedia, as you're doing on the Talk:Adolf Hitler page regarding whether or not the Joan of Arc page is accurate about her insanity, is childish, and a definite violation of WP:POINT, whther or not you think you're fully within TOS. I recommend you take issues about Hamlet up on HIS talk page, and issues with Joan of Arc over to HER page. Examining your recent contrib history, you seem to have issue s with WP:POINT, so read up on it, and stop acting in bad faith on other pages. We are not going to go fight your battles, and we're not going to run over to those pages and say 'hey, come get your troll'. We will ignore you and revert any unfounded edits regarding this or any other 'theories' you have about the Illuminati, or ZOG, or whatever tinfoil hat you're wearing.

Man, all this tough talk over a sissy with a slingshot. What a lame encyclopedia.
Arkhamite 01:12, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Wow. I don't know which surprises me more; the claim that introducing Robin was the result of a massive government conspiracy or that there are so many people ardently defending the Boy Wonder.
- I think it's reasonable to have a section about the homosexual interpretation of Batman & Robin's relationship. It's a widely known topic with at least a few papers written on it (good luck finding source citations for an FBI conspiracy, though).
- Is it dumb? Yes. Is it clearly disproven by Batman's writers and canon-content? Yes. But that doesn't mean it shouldn't be mentioned, if there are legitimate sources to be found. Creationism is dumb and widely disproven, but enough people spout gibberish about it that it warrants discussion. If the sources can be cited and the issue is relevent, let it in.
- That said, you're still crazy, Arkhamite. The Cap'n (talk) 20:48, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Some update to this article should be made to reflect the content of the new Batman film. (SPOILER) Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Det. John Blake is revealed to be originally named "Robin" and quits the police force to, presumably, pursue vigilante style justice. He also appears to take over the role of Batman in the final moments of the film, as he is seen entering the bat cave. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.254.57.111 (talk) 16:49, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
- Off the top:
- "presumably"
- "appears"
- Read WP:OR and WP:WEASEL. That is original research, and hedged fan speculation about motives and future events.
- It has zero place in a Wikipedia article.
- - J Greb (talk) 17:39, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
- Sources have already been provided confirming the intended interpretation that John Blake is Nolan's rendition of Robin. This article already lists several different variations of the Robin. Excluding John Blake—despite the sources to back up the claim, as well as many parallels to Grayson, Drake and Todd's backstory—might be breaking WP:NPOV. Geeky Randy (talk) 02:34, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
While you may take issue with my phrasing, someone else will come along to confirm the content previously referred to and demand the article be modified as well, or just attempt to do so themselves. For reference, check the last couple paragraphs of the Wiki plot synopsis for the film: The Dark Knight Rises. Here's a pulled a quote: "John "Robin" Blake inherits the Batcave." Not speculative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.254.57.111 (talk) 18:40, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry, the cite is one persons interpretation, not "confirming the intended interpretation". That would require something from Nolan or Warner Brothers.
- The paragraph is written as more speculative than the cited source. Point blank: Wikipedia is not here for editors to indulge in original research. And more so not to pad out a thin source.
- The bulk of this article deals with the medium the character is native to - the comics. Robin in other media is effectively a separate topic. That means,
- The infobox does not reflect the other media, and
- Robin (comics)#Portrayals should be a lead paragraph for Robin in other media, not an exhaustive list in and of itself.
- And the general practice of WP:BRD is that a discussion happens before a reverted bold edit is restored.
- - J Greb (talk) 04:30, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- Understood. In that case, is there anything wrong with having a single paragraph relating to John Blake in the Robin in other media section? The contents of the article clearly shows the Robin character has been used in many different forms and by several different identities. The two sources I have provided at the very least demonstrate that The Dark Knight Rises is a Batman movie and that a character named Robin appears in it. That alone demonstrates a Robin appearance in The Dark Knight Rises, regardless of his form or background. The actual contents of the sources go even further into demonstrating why John Blake is a common interpretation of this series' Robin. Also listed in the inclusion that was reverted were parallels John Blake has with several of the Robin identities that are everything but coincidental. A simple paragraph in Robin in other media should be fair, and if it needs elaborating, it can be done at that article. Can we agree to that? Geeky Randy (talk) 04:53, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
- There does seem to be some action on Robin in other media which will hopefully amount to some solution to the information vacuum being upheld here. Though J. Greb is policing over there as well, even locking down the page in light of these current developments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.254.57.111 (talk) 17:06, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Discussing Blake/Robin
To avoid a potential edit war, I've decided to take the matter to the talk page. Blake is not the only Robin character whose real name is "Robin" instead of an alias and does not wear a costume. In the comic book Batman: Year 100, there was also a Robin whose real name was such and never donned the classic red, yellow and green spandex.
Blake is a re-imagining of Robin created to fit into Chris Nolan's realistic interpretation of Batman. There would be absolutely no point whatsoever in revealing the character's real name as "Robin" and ending the film with the character entering the Batcave and potentially becoming a vigilante if he wasn't intended to be a Robin character. Revan4000 (talk) 13:40, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
- First off - the discussion should run its course before the item is reverted into the article.
- Please take a look at WP:OR. That is going to cover a lot of what you are attempting to do. As does WP:WEASEL.
- Can you provide sources - other than your own opinions or deductions - for:
- The character form Batman: Year 100 actually being considered the equivalent of Grayson, Todd, Drake, or any of the other "base" Robins.
- The film character being based, thematically or more, on the character from Batman 100.
- That the film character is a re-imaging or homage of the prominent comic book character as Chris O'Donnell's character was a translation of that character.
- That the point of stating that his legal name includes "Robin" was a nod to Batman's comic book sidekick.
- That Nolan and Goyer did indeed intend this.
- Can you provide sources - other than your own opinions or deductions - for:
- And, van any of this be stated without hedging?
- - J Greb (talk) 16:46, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
- There are a lot of reliable sources at least speculating that it's meant to be Robin. See this Forbes article or this MTV article talking to JGL. Since speculation is allowed when backed up by reliable sources, and portrayed as such, and this is more than just some crackpot fan theory, it seems like there's certainly a way to portray this in the article while trimming away the original research parts... Sergecross73 msg me 19:57, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Thee may indeed be a way for it other than OR. However... The Forbes blog is questionable as a reliable source and the MTV article is hard to verify one way or the other out side of the US. And the refs would need to be there, something that on original insertion wasn't done. And worse, the same editor was removing the cites from similar sections on other articles.
- And on that note - considering there is Robin in other media, a full blown section on Blake really shouldn't be here.
- - J Greb (talk) 20:11, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Front page of CNN on August 17, 2012 "Gordon-Levitt mum on 'Robin'" links to a video of Joseph Gordon-Levitt being asked about "Robin", which does not result in any answers from the actor, only a tight lip and interesting body language. Once again, it appears from this talk page that those Wiki "Police" have little else to do but hold the line on the relation of Blake and the coming Robin connection. Goodness, I wish I had that much "free" time. Jason Gaudet (talk) 18:39, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ad hominem. Now would you like to explain why this article should not follow WP:OR, WP:UNDUE, WP:RELIABLE and any other guideline or policy the insistence of including a "Blake is Robin" section runs up against?

Blake is definitely Nolan's version of Robin. Check out Gordon-Levitt's interview with Letterman two days ago, he said it himself after Dave would ask him about the Robin part : "John Blake is Christopher Nolan's version of the sidekick Robin, without the costume and the tights." something along those lines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jokerfan2009 (talk • contribs) 22:22, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

Section? I just felt it would make sense mentioning him with the other Robin film portrayals, even if Blake isn't a character from the comics(Grayson, Todd, etc..) he was still a version of the character. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.87.156.77 (talk) 16:44, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Christopher Nolan created an original interpretation of the character for the 2012 film The Dark Knight Rises, as police officer 'Robin John Blake', combining elements of Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Tim Drake. Portrayed by Joseph Gordon Levitt, Robin fulfils his sidekick status in the film by showing constant support towards Batman and encouraging him to make a return after an eight year hiatus. The film concludes with him inheriting the Batcave, hinting at his future as the new masked crime fighter of Gotham City.

Merge proposal
Per a conversation at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics#List of exclamations by Robin, it has been suggested that sourced sections of "Holy..." be merged into the portrayal section of this article. Since the article had wide support at its AfD, the discussion is being moved here to (hopefully) get more eyes on it. Argento Surfer (talk) 20:30, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

- Support - Not enough information or sources to render an entire article by itself. We do have enough, however, for that information to be added into this article. At any rate, the list of mostly uncited catchphrases needs to go. It also doesn't appear that many people suggested or discussed a merger at the AfD in question, save for one suggestion (in an argument didn't go anywhere and quickly devolved into bickering about whether the catchphrases could be proven, BLP nonsense, whether they are "loosely associated", ETC).

Carrie Kelley in animated shows
The paragraph about Carrie Kelley under Other Versions claims she featured in an episode of Batman The Animated Series but the episode "Legends of Tomorrow" is actually an episode of the show The New Batman Adventures (epsiode 19). Also "Batman Dies at Dawn!" is not an episode of Batman The Brave and the Bold but the 13th issue of the comic of the same name which is a tie in to said series. Carrie was also featured in the episode "The Best Robin" of Teen Titans Go! (season 2 episode 24). All my sources are the respective List of X episodes wikipedia articles.
