Problem

[edit]

This category includes both fictional extraterrestrial life forms, from books/movies/tv, and images related to ufology, which is tangentially related (with some overlap). The category needs to be split, and some renaming/recategorizing needs to be done. im not sure yet what to do, ill try to look into it. same problem existed at the article on the english wp for fictional extraterrestrial, which covered UFO aliens heavily, which was a form of editorializing.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 04:38, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

misnomer

[edit]

This category should be renamed as "category:extraterrestrials" instead. "Alien" is much too ambiguous, and can refer to both terrestrial and extraterrestrial organisms. Nicole Sharp (talk) 19:33, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
