  • Delete or Redirect to Radar detector. All the current references lead to manufacturer's own site so it gives a strong impression that the article was created by manufacturer to advertise their own product, this type of content obviously does not belong on Wikipedia. In an addition to that, there's absolutely no good way to improve such article (same goes for every other product by different radar detector brand, such as Escort, Radenso, Uniden and others) because these products are only relevant to a very small amount of enthusiasts so most of the useful product information (including detailed, up-to-date tests/comparisons) can only be found on such enthusiast's forums, YouTube channels and personal blogs and such sources aren't considered "reliable". Also, after looking at this article's history I have noticed that it has already been proposed for deletion back in 2009, and while the proposal was removed by some editor on the same day - that editor also failed to properly improve this article, for the same reason I've stated above. So it's better to just either remove this (and any similar future articles related to different brands of radar detectors) article completely or make a redirect to a general Radar detectors article.Omgwtfbbqsomethingrandom (talk) 14:54, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
