This should mostly be used when there's no better tag for the humanoids.

Examples:
* Romulans, Vulcans, Klingons, etc. space aliens from Star Trek
* Elves, Dwarves, etc. in almost any fantasy setting.
* Nordic aliens

Lesser examples: (not worth tagging, though obviously have notable resemblance even if distorted)
* Greys
