Category talk:Individual Martians

Discussion page

Request for clarification[[edit source]]

Is this a category for a particular species, or for individuals who come from the same location? Current naming and categorisation indicates the former, but the explanation given on the category page seems to be saying this is about location, not species. If so, this should be put under category:individuals by location and be renamed to "Individuals from Mars", "Residents of Mars" or "Martian individuals" -- whatever is most appropriate. Category:Humans from Mars would then be a subcategory.

It was more intended for the nondescript, but presumably alien, Martians who are sometimes mentioned in DWU stories which don't feel like using the Ice Warriors. You may be right that Category:Residents of Mars might do the trick as well, but, etch, I dunno.
If nothing else Arthur Corn, whose carefully-described species has a page as Martian, would definitely belong in such a category. I'm less sure about what to do with the nondescript Martians cropping up all over the Dalek annuals (what prompted me to create this category in the first place).
(There's at least another species native to Mars which has been deemed distinct enough for us to have a page about it, but it doesn't have any notable individuals with pages of their own as of posting.) --Scrooge MacDuck 20:36, December 8, 2019 (UTC)
