It has a gun in the name

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.

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

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.

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?

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.

In Splatoon, the weapons are inspired by toys like water guns, but they do actual damage to enemies. They're also capable of destroying stuff like wooden crates and mechanical devices. evazion is correct; they shouldn't be tagged with water_gun or super_soaker.
