Scope of article

I don't see why the SS R1 gets a page of it's own while the subsequent models don't: or alternatively, why the article doesn't incorporate the RI-RVII, basically all minor variants of the same aircraft. There would then possibly be a necessity for a separate entry on the RVIII, although as a type which never left the ground it is rather marginal.TheLongTone (talk) 21:52, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

..oops, there are pages for the II-VII. They simply ar not linked to on the siemens-shuckert page. Still they seem somewhat redundant: much of each article is common to all of them...a three bay bipane of unequal span &c. I really think they should be conflated. R-plane nomeclature did not folloew the general rules or other WW1 German types.TheLongTone (talk) 20:18, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
