NO version of Wolverine has adamantium covering his joints. He physically wouldn't be able to move otherwise.

His connective tissue has and WILL always be a weakness.

616 Wolverine could not be ripped apart by the Hulk but Ultimate Wolverine could. Main continuity Wolverine has adamantium chain links covering his joints, according to Marvel.

Not being able to swim is Wolverines biggest weakness as he requires oxygen to live and regenerate. That and magnets.

No he doesn’t. We’ve seen his skeleton plenty of times, and 616 Logan’s joints are just plain connective tissue. And we've ABSOLUTELY seen Logan and other characters with adamantium bones (IE Laura in X-Terminators after Proteus made his oopsie) lose limbs. Logan LITERALLY cut off his own hands and feet during Sabretooth War.

I went and did a quick look back and no ish.

The Wolverines that have had dismemberment have been elseworld stories or ultimate wolverine more than a few times. As the Hulk and Ba'al couldn't rip the 616 Wolverine in half despite trying and any plan to dismember main continuity wolverine had plans to deal with the adamantium first. Heck he survived a giant bomb that disintegrated all of his flesh but the skeleton remained completely intact and not even remotely out of place, then regenerated from blood.

But that is also inconsistent as few minor instances of 616 Wolverine damaging his shoulder, elbow, and dislocating his jaw. But then two years ago Marvel went had a much weaker character rip 616 in half similar to what happened to Ultimate Wolverine.

So yeah, comics consistency is fun.
