Light is a very interesting character. He is not "evil" in the sense that he commits atrocities for personal gain or for fun. He's not a good guy either, as he is not above killing people who try to stop or expose his identity as the holder of the Death Note. He's an anti-hero. A protagonist who is not the villain of his story but who also lacks heroic attributes so cannot be classified as the hero. Pretty sure anti-heroes are a thing on the villains wiki, so I'd say he's rightfully there, provided he's under the anti-hero label.
