Fails WP:ORG, not sourced, possible copyvio Rackabello 04:13, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Review for possible copyvio (I only have a minute so I can't do this myself at the moment), then either Strong keep or Rewrite to remove copyvio portions if needed. This organization is long established as the authority on helmet safety standards. Its certification is (or was) required in the NASCAR rulebook and, if I'm not mistaken (again searches will have to wait until later), in the rulebooks of other automobile-racing and motorcycle-racing sanctioning bodies. Article needs more sourcing but topic is notable (definitely passing WP:ORG) and the included information appears accurate. Barno 17:16, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • I concur with Barno, and on that grounds, for now, Keep. Having the Snell logo on every bike helmet sold in the US gives some sort of import, if you ask me. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 20:11, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above, but the article needs a major re-write; it reads like a corporate press release. — BrotherFlounder 22:21, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Question To what extent is the extensive detail in the lists of test appropriate for this article--should it moved to an article on racing helmets?DGG 02:09, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, but rewrite most of the article. I don't see the relevance of the test section to motorcycles or racing. Royalbroil 03:54, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
