info taken from here Product Red edit whole page edit timeline section only

here goes...

But, more research needs to be done on:

  • product names
  • product price
  • product images that are legal..., images seen here are temporary.
  • external links

:I see that ed g2s has removed the images from the timeline... i can understand that as some of them are not allowed. But, I think it would be more thorough if they were included, so I have left the column in my sandbox, but i'll be looking for legal images, and encourage anyone to help and contribute them perhaps [User:Knowsitallnot/Sandbox_II|here]] and when we have enough they can be posted to the article page.
