I like to draw your attention to the following part which is only a sample:
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/61856.dat
Following the guidelines in the FAQ and the Article 340 (see above) then this
part belongs to the "Minifig" category as this is the first word of the
description. But later in the file there is a category entry which say: "Minifig
Accessory".
So I would have to sort the part into two categories or should I handle the
category entry with a higher priority?
The other possibility would be to rename the part to start with "Minifig
Accessory ..." and I do not need the category entry.
I like to have that clearyfied.
