Water gun implication

BUR #50747 has been rejected.

create implication water_gun -> gun

It has a gun in the name

No.

Water guns are toys. Guns are weapons. Not the same thing.

Edit: Turns out we have a toy gun tag, as noted in the water gun wiki. Not sure how good an implication would be to that.

Stupid related question I've been wondering for a while, but are these contextually supposed to be tagged with weapon? I noticed Splatoon posts tag them as such splatoon_(series) holding_weapon Ink gun, water gun, what's the difference?

I think it's related to intent? Like, there's a difference between something playful like post #10274873 and actually threatening someone like post #10089808.

That's certainly a way of announcing to everyone that you didn't bother to read the wikis of the tags you were making BURs on.

Gatling gun and energy gun also not imply to gun.

That's not new behavior for them at all, to be fair.

Super Soakers are Waterguns

The only time I could maybe see both tags being used is for LJN's attempt with Entertech as they looked like real guns, asides that heck no, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entertech

Super Soaker is primarily used for Splatoon posts, which means they would get tagged as water guns. Are these actual water guns or Super Soakers? Seems like they should just be tagged Splattershot instead.

The distinction looks a bit hazy. How can I tell that post #9442876 is a super soaker and not a splattershot (splatoon) other than that it's not being held by a Splatoon (Series) character? The design looks uncanny similar to some of them. How would you deal with artistic liberties when its not any of the preset ones given in the wiki, tag it based on the copyright? Super soaker itself holds but because of a copyright-specific version of them, I imagine that's what caused the original tag to be filled with Splatoon (Series) posts. splatoon_(series) super_soaker -splattershot_(splatoon) has 246 posts, some uploaders of it might not even know what its called.

Yeah no, I really don't like the idea of this implication if it's primarily being used on Splatoon art, when we're already getting into debates over if the guns in that series should be tagged as toys or proper guns.

OK, I didn’t expect this way down votes and I got my lesson
