Reading this article, I came across a sentence about the nails used to build the Blackfriars I wreck dating back to the first century. The article mentioned "clenchnails", and there was a link which I believed would lead to an explanation and photograph of an actual clenchnail as made in the first century. Instead, the popup from the link displayed a photo of a modern woodworking nail, and a generic explanation of what a nail is and how it is used. There was no photograph of actual clench-nailed planks, no explanation of how or why they were used, or their possible association with Vikings.
Since it directly pertains to the article at hand, it seems that a modern nail from Home Depot that is clearly new and unused is hardly useful, particularly when combined with a generic explanation box explaining the use of modern nails. It seems that if we are offered a link in explanation of the term "clinchnail"...that link should offer accurate information in context. 2600:100D:B05D:42B3:105E:E3BA:F5ED:E534 (talk) 13:45, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
