Talk:Torsion wrench

Torsion
Shouldn't this article be called "Torsion wrench"?

It seems that "torsion" devolved into "tension" somewhere in years past, perhaps due to word-of-mouth or mishearing the word, but "tension" has nothing to do with the twisting force these tools supply, whereas "torsion" does. A "tension wrench" by definiton stretches something. A "torsion wrench" twists something.
 * You raise a good point, but it's always been my experiance that these tools are referred to in the trade as tension wrenches. I've never seen the term torsion wrench used Ydam 12:39, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I as well have always heard them referred to as "tension wrenches" but last night my roomate was discussing my tools with me and referred to it as a "torsion wrench" -- this got me interested in the distinction. I feel we should add to this article at least, offering this alternate phrasing, but doesn't wiki forbid original research?  Is there any citation available for this usage?

 * I've added to the article to explain the conflict, while leaving the article title intact. Alvis 06:29, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Merge into lockpick
I feel this article would be better used if merged into the [lock pick] article, as that particular page contains a section in the tools used. --Davou 04:49, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I agree with Mr. Davou this would serve a much better purpose if it were merged with the [lock pick] article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.105.73.236 (talk) 02:09, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * An IP covered the edit history under a Rdr, which is improper bcz of GFDL, and has been reverted.
 * In any case, it would help if it were explained why the merge would be desirable. --Jerzy•t 06:14, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Title
Shouldn't this be at Tension wrench as that is what these items are called (though it may be inaccurate) rather than Torsion wrench which isin't it's common name.  YDAM  TALK 16:16, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Perhaps a redirect, if there isn't one already? There should be citations in either case. Alvis 05:58, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
