Talk:Military technology

Get the names of the Klingon swords under melee weapons. (For those who don't know, "melee weapons" are for hand-to-hand combat, such as knifes and swords)-B-101


 * antimatter weapon
 * biogenic weapon
 * disruptor
 * explosive
 * laser weapon
 * melee weapon
 * metagenic weapon
 * particle weapon
 * phase weapon
 * phaser
 * plasma weapon
 * projectile weapon
 * sonic weapon
 * subspace weapon

I really don't like the category "By Type", because it seems extra redundant considering the rest of the list is already sorted by type and there's no reason why the additional links can't exist under those headings. Not to mention that terms like "melee weapon" and "projectile weapon" have never even been uttered in Trek, and I don't think there should be separate articles about them. And why can't "laser weapon" and "laser" just be combined? -- EtaPiscium 10:25, 3 Jan 2005 (CET)


 * The article is "in use." I am reorganizing it, so i reverted your changes. I intend to place a basic separation list at the top to support a series of weapons articles, to better sort these lists, which have a lot of different terminology to digest. -- Captain Mike K.

Shouldn't this list be replaced by the new Weapons category?As it is,in the category are only about 20 weapons, but here I don't know how many. Or is there a specific reason to keep this list (the few defensive and Stealth technologies could be made into an own page)? Kennelly 14:41, 28 Jan 2005 (CET)


 * Replaced? No (not at the moment, that is, we can do that later) - because this list contains items that are not weapons, such as all items listed as "defense systems". Of course, if it is a weapon, you can add it to that category - I started with some of the items, but didn't finish it. -- Cid Highwind 14:46, 2005 Jan 28 (CET)
