[edit] Notability

The fact that you can buy this in stores and on Amazon definitely does NOT make it notable, it makes it normal. Even books notability has a specific exclusion for just "being available on amazon". What it needs is realiable third-party sources talking about it, that's how you establish notability according to the wikipedia guideline at WP:NOTE. If someone can add the sources for this it would be a great improvement. AliveFreeHappy (talk) 03:19, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Are you trying to say the item is not notable, or that it is notable but the notability, in your opinion, has simply not been sufficiently established by the article? Simply googling parkzone f-27c review turns up a healthy chunk of results for just that. Your rationale isn't all that clear. Further, the vast number of reviews posted by individuals and archived on hobby bulletin boards (essentially being published by their archival) I would consider to be appropriate and reliable for their independence, despite such things not typically being considered a reliable source elsewhere, because this is strictly a hobby item of interest to individuals in that hobby.

NOt established. It needs to have reliable third-party sources according to WP:NOTE to establish it. While hobby bbs reviews are nice, it would be best to have something from newspapers or hobbyist magazines, etc. AliveFreeHappy (talk) 17:44, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
