Sometimes dwarves will grow particularly attached to weapons and armor, and if they become attached enough, they will name their armor/weapons.

Dwarves are not the only ones that can name items, nor is it restricted to actual weapons. a named bucket and a named shoe, both wielded by demons that have been terrorizing the wildlife and invading goblins for about two years now. There was no announcement like when a dwarf names his weapon, but they both appear in blue on the artifacts list. I doubt armor can be named (and have never seen it myself), as the naming seems to stem largely from the item's kill list, and normally armor doesn't score kills. -- Qazmlpok 18:55, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Armor can definitely be named - I've had it happen numerous times in version 0.31. It mainly happens when the armor has successfully deflected a large quantity of attacks, and danger room training causes that to happen rather quickly. --Quietust 21:56, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Artifact mechanisms can jam

The page is flat out wrong, weapon traps with artifact mechanisms can jam in v0.34.11. Proof -91.157.56.136 11:17, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Building Destroyers

While it's true Artifacts cannot be destroyed by Building Destroyer creatures, aren't they deconstructed instead? If so that would be worth noting.
