Definition of a cyborg
Since people don't want to use the talk page and resort only to edit-warring, I decided to open an discussion. I think Kid and Z can be defined as cyborgs because they have replace their limbs with machines. They don't have to be fully covered by that.

That wasn't an edit war. Not to mention that's still not what a cyborg is. A cyborg is literally a human that is entirely made of machine. SeaTerror (talk) 17:49, January 28, 2016 (UTC)

That's a robot, ST. A cyborg is a being with both organic and cybernetic body parts. Though I'm not really sure if Kid has a cybernetic arm or a Devil Fruit-enhanced prosthetic. 02:26, January 29, 2016 (UTC)

Robots aren't human, Kaido. SeaTerror (talk) 03:50, January 29, 2016 (UTC)

The definition of Cyborg is not super clear, but technically a robotic-prosthetic limb should make indeed consider the person a cyborg. I too imagine a Cyborg with more extensive "artificial body coverage" then just a limb, but based on what the page says even just a normal implant is sufficient to consider the person a cyborg. The page says the terms applies "to an organism that has restored function or enhanced abilities due to the integration of some artificial component or technology that relies on some sort of feedback". Basically if you have something artificial in your body that has some sort of feedback with you or that you can control, you are a cyborg.

By Levi's definition, they both count. 00:25, February 8, 2016 (UTC)

I always a thought that a machine that acted like human was a robot, a human made entirely of machine was an android, and a human who has "fixed" body parts on them through machines were a cyborg. So I might be wrong, but I'm on Levi's side here. 03:41, February 10, 2016 (UTC)

We don't know if Kid's arm is actually a functional robo-arm or if he just controls it with his magnetism powers. 11:13, February 13, 2016 (UTC)

Does that matter though? It still controls it with his mind.

I'd say it doesn't matter and both Kid and Z count. I'm adding them back and closing the discussion. 02:17, March 15, 2016 (UTC)
