In my mind, if it was built by humans (or other intelligent creatures), it's a structure.  Ships were the only ones that seemed to pose a problem, since they move, so maybe they are items, but structure seems more right to me.  We could say anything a person can enter is structure, and anything they can't is an item.  But then what of the Apparatus? Personally I expect that to be an item.  Same with a coffin.  Maybe there's a better cut-off.  Maybe it doesn't matter if there's some overlap.  Nothing says item and structure/location need to be completely non-overlapping.  -- [[User:Gonzoron|Gonzoron]] 16:22, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

We need an operating defintion.

All buildings are structures I would say. Currently, all ships would be structures. Presumably all items (which currently includes ships) would not be structures. All ruins would be structures.Cure 17:18, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

In my mind, if it was built by humans (or other intelligent creatures), it's a structure. Ships were the only ones that seemed to pose a problem, since they move, so maybe they are items, but structure seems more right to me. We could say anything a person can enter is structure, and anything they can't is an item. But then what of the Apparatus? Personally I expect that to be an item. Same with a coffin.
