Should we add -oidal as a variant in for example mucoidal? --Backinstadiums (talk) 16:35, 23 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Missing sense edit

I've noticed a lot of (primarily online) terms that end in -oid in a different sense than the one that's currently documented. Specifically, the words Clintonoid, creepoid, Dengoid, leftoid, libtoid, pinkoid, rightoid, and the currently uncitable westoid all use the suffix in a derogatory way, rather than the typical "resembling X" meaning. Should this variant have its own category, like how we have Category:English words suffixed with -ware (software) and Category:English words suffixed with -ware (substance, kind, or use)?
