message: "The strength of the joint relies solely on the shear strength of the pins"
No, it depends on the strength of both pins and the little flaps on the socket. For british light bulbs, the latter is normally the weaker element.

replies: text: I am not sure if the flaps or lugs are actually weaker, but certainly I have seen these fail in old lamp holders and have never seen the pins on a bulb fail. It could be because the lamp has had many bulbs used in it, whereas each bulb only has to be inserted and removed once. -- Q Chris (talk) 09:54, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Sentence "male side with one or more pins, and a female receptor with matching "L" slots and spring(s)" is not correct in the case of BNC connectors. It's BNC male connectors that show the matching slots and the spring.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by U235861 (talk • contribs) 17:33, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Added to article "(The BNC connector is not exactly as described in this article, as the male, not female, connector has the slots and spring.)" Pol098 (talk) 16:06, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Male / Female 

message: Perhaps one of the illustrations could be very simply modified to make it fit the "L-shape" explanation in the text? I've never worked with Wikipedia/Wikimedia illustrations, otherwise I'd try it. I suggest creating a rotated and mirror-imaged version of File:Bayonet-mount-02.svg, captioned "A bayonet mount before and after insertion", so that the slot is oriented like a capital L with serif at the right of the horizontal.

message: Maybe change the images of socket bayonets to more up-close images, and of earlier bayonets instead of the mid-19th century type with locking rings. Ironmatic1 (talk) 01:47, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
