Proposed: This category should be used for geohashers who are willing to be advocates for the sport, answer questions from newbies, or for recognizing geohashers who've done something useful. The inside joke that geohashing does not make someone important has gone cold (it had a good innings), but this can be an opportunity for growth and recognition. -- Jevanyn (talk) 10:50, 8 January 2014 (EST)

I agree. What we need is more like a "Category: Geohashers who won't shout at you for asking questions" than a question of importance. Er... could somebody come up with a better name? "Category: Mentors" already sounds self-important and implies some kind of superiority, so anti-hierarchical Calamus doesn't like it. --Calamus 16:49, 12 January 2014 (EST)
