Broaden the fields

This article is focused waaaaaay too much on chemical explosions. You people who are experienced should either split this into multiple linked articles (as it is also really large) or put more information on the other explosives. SaveTheWild (talk) 16:31, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

CDP?

There are numerous mentions of a "CDP" in the article, with only one reference (a Canadian patent). They feel shoehorned into the article and I'm unsure whether to just remove them entirely or try to better integrate them into the article. Is this even notable? 104.167.148.149 (talk) 22:15, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

Hey, just wanted to alert anyone with this page on the watchlist that I made two talk page comments linked below. I'm not in any WP:PROJECT that watches this page, so feel free to look at my comments and correct me. Signed, I Am Chaos (talk) 00:26, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Links: Talk:High-explosive Talk:High Explosive .

I also changed another 2 redirects that had a misspelling, but I doubt you guys need to look at them. These are them: Military explosive Primary explosives. Signed, I Am Chaos (talk) 00:26, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Video at top

This demo of 3 explosives is interesting. It would be much more meaningful if they were identified. There are a lot if words at https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=Explosive&title=Special:MediaSearch&fulltext=search&type=video Could they be added as a note to the caption?
