I mean...Weapons isn't a proper namespace. It's not coming back as that. It was already cut and put on the PRLC by Berrenta.

Other than that, I have no horse in this race. I suppose others can chime in, but I'm pretty sure the matter was settled weeks ago.

The problem is most of the people in the Destiny discussion are not entirely happy with the removal. A lot of time and effort was put into that page only for it to be unceremoniously killed off. I have given an excellent argument on why the weapons can be added back to the characters page with no issues.

I have no horse in this race either (and wasn't around for this discussion, so forgive me if this point has already been brought up), but why not just have Destiny Weapons as a character page, the same way other games have pages for races, NPC classes, etc.?

You'd have to convince the mods why the weapons should get a character page, especially if there's a dedicated Destiny Wiki out there with info on the weapons.

Having a Weapons/ namespace is a no go. We are not going to splinter material like that.

As for a Weapons-Character page, weapons are not characters. We've already had disputes over races counting, folks. I think the support among the staff for weapons will be tepid at best.
