Merge I think that the film, television and video game incarnations are unnecessary because Batman (franchise) exists, but I suggest that we merge the list of other people to take the mantle of Batman and the list of more notable variants of Bruce Wayne into the main Batman article.

 * Speedy delete via G4 (previous discussion here). There's a reason that deletion review is the correct procedure to restore a deleted version of a page, rather than copy-and-pasting the deleted text into a new article — it now looks like GeniusReading2310 is the original contributor of 99% of the article, when this is not the case and none of the original editors have been attributed. According to WP:RUD: If an article is deleted, its history is removed and thus its content cannot be reused on Wikipedia—even under the same article title—unless attribution is otherwise provided (or the page undeleted).
