He uses it as a large combat knife, and would be unwieldy for most purposes for a survival knife.

message: The AKM bayonet was introduced in 1959. It predates the "Survival knife" concept by almost 20 years. It has a Bowie style (clip-point) blade with sawteeth along the spine, and can be used as a multi-purpose knife and wire-cutter when combined with it's steel scabbard.Kalashnikov Bayonets. The Collectors' Guide to Bayonets for the AK and Its Variations. by Martin D. Ivie. Texas Diamond Eye Publications 2002. page 1-5http://worldbayonets.com/Misc__Pages/ak_bayonets/ak_bayonets.htmlhow to use the wire cutter on an akm /ak 47 bayonet. YouTube (2009-07-16). Retrieved on 2011-09-27. 
Reference sections from the article:
Serrations appeared on knives in the 19th century for use as a wood saw or fish scaler.
Some militaries (including the People's Republic of China, Great Britain, Germany, Soviet Union and United States) have redesigned the bayonet used with their issued rifle to include survival knife features.  Historically, bayonets had functioned poorly as field knives, due to being designed primarily to turn a rifle into a thrusting weapon and only secondarily (if at all) to work as a field knife.  The newer models function more acceptably for mundane tasks while remaining capable of being attached to the muzzle of a rifle.

Talk:Darius Ogden Mills

message: I was directed here to attempt to correct the incorrect image showing of Darius Ogden Mills on his Wiki page. The image showing of the man with the bushy mustache is actually his brother, Edgar Mills who looked nothing like Darius. There are multitude of sources that can validate this issue. I long ago (about 8 months ago) began attempting to remedy the issue w/ the Bancroft library (who admits the incorrect annotation of their image caused this problem) however there remain bureaucratic issues within their institution which make the correction a long and arduous process. It would be preferential if the Wiki page just pointed to a different source. I actually own an original (and thoroughly representative) image of him that could be used in addition to several other web examples. I just need some help with effecting the change here so those referencing him or doing genealogical work aren't misled by the false image. 
Please advise on how to move forward with this correction.

message: I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
*John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.)
and turns it into something like
* John Smith "" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from ,  and .
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

message: This biography is verifiable, because it was supplied by the person it is about, so it is 100% accurate.
As for the neutral tone, and sounding like a resume, I could do with some guidance as to how to go about writing this differently. I can only see that writing it differently would change it into longer wordy paragraphs that say exactly the same as the article succinctly says at the moment in less words. Advice and guidance would be helpful if anyone would like to chip in at this point, thanks.

thread_title:  Biography guidelines 

message: First, read WP:COI and WP:N. The subject is probably notable, but it has to be shown that other people know it. We strongly discourage writing articles about one's close associates, because human nature being what it is, its harder to be objective. So what you need to do is first, to write it in paragraphs like an encyclopedia article--this is after all an encyclopedic, not a directory. Specific awards or productions can be shown as a list within the article-- a combination like that usually reads better. 
Then , it is absolutely necessary to provide references from reliable 3rd party published sources to show that the importance is recognized--personal knowledge isn't really enough to make the case. Additionally, make external links to 1 or 2 key  web sites that can & should include the person's official site, & the one for a relevant organization. I'd advise doing is very fast, because the article is almost certain to be sent for deletion otherwise. DGG (talk) 19:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Carla Stovall

message: This article is full of statements with no adjoining reference citation.
In at least one significant case, the statement contradicts numerous opposing articles published widely in Kansas state media, citing Stovall's own statements. This faulty statement says:
: Despite an early lead in the polls, Stovall withdrew from the race in order to get married and spend more time with her husband's family."
This is directly at odds with Stovall's own statements, published  repeatedly, that her reason for quitting was her disinterest in the campaign and the job, and not because of her romance and pending marriage, which she said had no bearing on her decision.
I will change that error, immediately, per WP:RS (particularly as concerns articles about living persons).  I will copy my text from the Wikipedia article "2002 Kansas gubernatorial election" which I have just inserted in that article's subsection 2.2 "Withdrawn", which covers this chapter in Stovall's career.

Why do ppl continue calling the house of bragança post-Ferdinand II as "Bragança-Wettin" when in portugal there has never been the tradition of renaming a house following the name of the patriarchal branch? It should be only house of Brangança, no?
Actually, when Queen Maria and King Fernando’s son came to the throne in 1853 the House of Braganza was replaced with the House of Braganza-Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. This branch of the Braganzas no longer exits since King Manuel II left no heirs. Royal Braganza (talk) 19:02, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Until the birth of his first child with Maria he would be called within this article "Ferdinand" and from then on as "Fernando II", explaining that he had become the King of Portugal.
