Artificiality

An Entity is evaluated for whether or not it belongs to a particular Reference_category in a context where its category membership is doubtful. The criterion or criteria that are relevant to evaluating Reference_category membership depend on the individual lexical units and/or on the context. Typically, either the material composition of the Entity, its method of creation, or the identity (and proper authority) of its creators are critical for proper category membership. Note that Entity also covers behaviors. It can be hard to get your money back after discovering you've bought a bogus autograph for hundreds or thousands of dollars!
