Category talk:Joyrider hosts

several suggestions
First of all, I think the idea of structuring Category:Human hosts is long overdue and am happy someone took it upon themselves to realise it. Having said that, may I consult on the issue for the betterment of the Wikia etc. etc. etc.?

First problem I see is that currently this categorisation only applies to human hosts, but in many cases also non-humans could have been hosts and may be hosts in the future stories. Granted, in many cases, we only have humans as hosts for now. But wouldn't it be prudent for future proofing to move this categorisation one level up to Category:Individual hosts? The added benefit of that would be that "human host" category would not be redundant on the character pages: now you would, in principle, need to remove it as being superseded by a better category.

Secondly, T:CAT NAME is rather harsh on the naming issue: it must be unambiguous. When the possession is by an individual or by a species, everything's fine. But for this here category, we have a possession using a piece of technology. The technology was never named in the story explicitly, and I (being the main editor of the novel on the Wikia) did not invent the name. "Joyrider" is the term used for the clients of Joyriders company. However, the technology was also used by the original alien proprietors of the technology and by Coal Hill defenders in retaliation. So about half of the people currently in the category should not be there under the current name. I'm guessing this is not what you intended. Am I right? Amorkuz ☎  09:13, December 29, 2016 (UTC)
