If you look on the "supporting characters" category page, it says what it's for right there: "series regulars outside the main cast." In other words, they play a significant role in the series, but they aren't part of the official main cast.

That's what we're trying to differentiate. From what I know and understand supporting characters aren't the same as recurring characters. The supporting cast definition is fine but the recurring one needs to change and be specified.
