Sure, if you need to cut through categories use tags.

We should consider allowing you to “pass tags” through from WordPress we have a strong use case for this on [boingboing.net](http://boingboing.net)

For example:

> **[If they'd given Commander Riker his own Star Trek spinoff show, it would not...](https://boingboing.net/2015/05/24/if-theyd-given-commander-rik.html)**
>
> They should have given the franchise to Jan van den Hemel. \[via The Verge\]

has the tags “edits riker star trek weird” it would be cool if

[If they'd given Commander Riker his own Star Trek spinoff show, it would not be as good as this - boing - Boing Boing BBS](http://bbs.boingboing.net/t/if-theyd-given-commander-riker-his-own-star-trek-spinoff-show-it-would-not-be-as-good-as-this/58208) had these tags as well.
