Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W30

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable commercial product. No references. Wikipedia is not a digital camera guide. Wikipedia is not a Sony catalog. Mikeblas (talk) 03:53, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep - I am probably biased, as I have added material to the article, but the article is now referenced, and could be expanded more. --DAJF (talk) 04:33, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. At the moment, there are no references; just a couple of external links. Still no claim to notability. -- Mikeblas (talk) 16:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge into a broader article. An individual model number is probably too specific to ever have much encyclopedic content, especially since there is no assertion of notability. Ham Pastrami (talk) 04:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment We seem to have a Cyber-shot category full of these articles, I know everyone is going to point out WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS but I'm not voting, just pointing out that there is a whole bunch of them; which isn't a reason for or a reason not to delete this article. --Sin Harvest (talk) 10:48, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Question. So, why point it out? It's irrelevant, and you know it, and you say so. -- Mikeblas (talk) 16:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. The editors should save themselves the trouble -- the cyber-shot article contains a table full of red links and self-redirecting blue links. This table is probably encouraging article creation when it shouldn't. Editors interested in the subject might want to consider showing themselves a little mercy and getting rid of that table or converting it to flat text. Ham Pastrami (talk) 22:31, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment This is in the process of being dealt with. Most, if not all, of the individual articles can be redirected to Cyber-shot and the links removed. --DAJF (talk) 23:21, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge to Cyber-shot. Insufficient notability to have a standalone article for each new model of gadget. Wikipedia is not a product catalog. Edison (talk) 18:38, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge - into Cyber-shot.   Compwhiz II ( Talk )( Contribs )  19:11, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Cyber-shot. Having seen the state of some of the smaller Cyber-shot model stubs, I have now rewritten the Cyber-shot article to include the basic spec details of individual models, in a similar fashion to the Sony Mavica article, allowing them to be redirected there. --DAJF (talk) 23:17, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
