The tone of this article feels different from that of most articles on Wikipedia that I have read - more filled with opinion. "Self-harm is a purely psychological act." - It cannot possibly be purely that or there wouldn't be a physical aspect to it (i.e. it would be thinking bad stuff about yourself or such, not physically hurting yourself). There are way too many unnecessary inline quotes. The "Weapons used" section reads very strangely with a locknsock being called a sap for some reason?

Prison illustration - this is not a typical prison and is not indicative of the preceding description. Could we please consider changing it? 119.234.9.81 (talk) 06:42, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
Multiple issues: added tone
[edit]This article is very difficult to read. The way quotes are used look odd, for example: "Some will, “…fashion the metal post of a bunk bed or the edge of a cell door into a spear…that could be flung from inside a cell and penetrate a man’s neck or liver”, which is called the bone crusher." The tone also is too informal in many parts of the article. I will try and work on the readability, but I'd also appreciate if someone else with more knowledge on the subject can help fix up this article. Vixtani (talk) 14:11, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
