I think this category's definition needs to be re-worded. I remember something distinctly different but cannot find the discussion we had. In short, I thought this category should encompass "anything on the starmaps that isn't a system in the classic sense", mainly nebulas (nebulae?). Cygnus-X1, for example, is a pretty normal system as neutron star-black hole binaries go. It shouldn't be in this category. Systems with multiple suns are nothing extraordinary, though come to think of it we might start subcategories for binary, trinary, etc. star systems. But that's another question.

I think this category's definition needs to be re-worded. I remember something distinctly different but cannot find the discussion we had. In short, I thought this category should encompass "anything on the starmaps that isn't a system in the classic sense", mainly nebulas (nebulae?). Cygnus-X1, for example, is a pretty normal system as neutron star-black hole binaries go. It shouldn't be in this category. Systems with multiple suns are nothing extraordinary, though come to think of it we might start subcategories for binary, trinary, etc. star systems. But that's another question.

I agree that it should be revisited, though I am less firm on what it should look like. I found this discussion because I was going to put Pleiades Cluster in here, but the definition prohibits.--Talvin (talk) 15:16, 4 July 2022 (EDT)
