Inclusion in Category:Star Trek: The Next Generation
The article is currently in
Category:Star Trek: The Next Generation, but I have doubts as to whether it should be. I am aware that Maurice Hurley as head writer showrunner at the start of
Star Trek: The Next Generation was hugely instrumental in its development and the creation of some of its key concepts. However apparent from one other example - the article on the writer
Melinda M. Snodgrass whose inclusion I have similar concerns about - no other member of the creative team behind the series has their article included in this category including key figures like
Rick Berman,
Michael Piller and
Ronald D. Moore. Even
Gene Roddenberry's article is not in any Star Trek categories and other Science Fiction TV franchise categories like
Category:Battlestar Galactica tend not to include production personnel (although
Category:Babylon 5 does include the article of its creator
J. Michael Straczynski. There thus seems to be a precedent that such articles are not included in this type of category and I am not sure that this should be an exception.
