When in doubt, wait until it flowers. If you like it then regard it as a plant. If you don't like it then it's a weed! The last picture - I call that a weed. Don't know about the others! Cheers, Mags
Thank you
The last one is hogweed, big, coarse but quite handsome in its way, but seeds like mad and has very deep tap roots that are hard to get out, and it re-grows if you miss a bit. The dainty little yellow flower hiding behind it is Geum urbanum and it produces burr like seeds that stick to clothes and animals and so get carried all over the garden. Get rid of both before they seed
