I know that sometimes Yutyrannus is commonly referred to as a tyrannosaurid, but I still don't think it should be included in the category "tyrannosaurids". The defintion of tyrannosaurid refers to members of Tyrannosauridae, which Yutyrannus not belong.

I also disagree that we should place it under the category "tyrannosaurids" just because it has "tyrannus" or some other variant of the word "tyrant". If that was the case, Tyrannotitan, a carcharodontosaurid, would fall in this category despite it coming from a whole different group than T. rex and its kin.
