Hello and welcome to the wiki. First, let me thank you for your enthusiasm and the edits you've made to the content of some of our pages. With that out of the way, to the issue. Please keep in mind that the Weapons category is a category that you yourself created only yesterday. While I do believe that it has a place here, it cannot encompass the entire meaning of certain pages. Simply because it falls under Technology as a subcategory does not mean that noting a object's technological significance is unnecessary next to its combat significance; whether or not an automail or machine can act as a weapon, it's technological significance remains separate from that. The Briggs Tank, Mad Bear G and Crocodile are all weapons, yes, but they also represent technological advancements in fields of biomechanics and engineering whose purposes are not necessarily tied to weaponry. If we had any articles on specific or individual firearms, then the Weapons category alone would likely suffice, but for these articles and articles like it, that is not the case. It isn't so much a policy here as a judgment call we've made. So long as an item is both combatively significant and technologically significant, both categories stay. The Item category also serves a purpose, though one admittedly less significant than the Technology tag. There aren't so many categories on this site that overcategorization will become a problem, in any case. CorbeauKarasu 17:19, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
