Super confused. According to WP favicon Vehicle on Wikipedia:

"A vehicle (from Latin: vehiculum) is a machine that transports people or cargo. Vehicles include wagons, bicycles, motor vehicles (motorcycles, cars, trucks, buses), railed vehicles (trains, trams), watercraft (ships, boats), amphibious vehicles (screw-propelled vehicle, hovercraft), aircraft (airplanes, helicopters) and spacecraft."

Note the bold parts I added. Why? Because Category:Aircraft‎, Category:Boats‎, Category:Buses‎, Category:Carriages, Category:Cars‎, Category:Motorbikes, and Category:Trains‎, are all under this category (Category:Transportation) instead of its subcategory Category:Vehicles, which only currently contains Category:Broomsticks as its respective subcategory that I also happen to find a tad bit odd. I'm not sure if people were trying to justify brooms as "hovercraft", but surely the most "obvious" actual vehicle types should be considered first?

The only reason I have not recategorize the subcategories, is because I'm not sure if there's some cultural differences I'm not getting... Like is a car not called a vehicle in the UK or something? Like I said, super confused. --Sammm✦✧(talk) 04:33, February 2, 2019 (UTC)
