[edit]- List of Sony products - are we going to have a (incomplete, and never likely to be complete) product catalogue for every manufacturer? -- Ams80 18:20, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Why not? We are building an incomplete, and never likely to be complete encyclopaedia. Mintguy (T) 18:22, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Move to another namespace or keep. Useful for creating an encyclopedia. Anthony DiPierro 18:32, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- I created this article for the purpose of being able to write an article about the printer listed there, without having to make it an orphan. I suppose I could have looked for/created a list of computer printer models. But if the list is deleted, the article would become an orphan. —Vespristiano 19:47, 2004 Feb 15 (UTC)
- And that article deserves to be deleted as well.
- What's wrong with it? —Vespristiano 03:45, 2004 Feb 17 (UTC)
- Creating a list so that an item on it won't be an orphan does seem like a not very pressing reason to create the list. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:01, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- There's a List of IBM products too. If IBM's ok, then Sony's ok. Agree with Mintguy that incompleteness is not a criteria for deletion. Jay 08:40, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Comment - Could this could be altered to a list of important/notable Sony products, such as the Walkman, Playstation, Betamax, Aibo? Linking to only products worthy of further discussion. Average Earthman 20:05, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: hopeless maintenance problem. Wile E. Heresiarch 02:49, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Such a list can be of use. Someone created it for a purpose. You may not see the purpose, but the article is useful to someone. It does not violate any policies. This article does not obligate us to make more articles like it. Articles are created because individuals see needs. Kingturtle 10:16, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Yes, of course it's useful -- that's why Sony Corp maintains such a list. The problem is that WP can never keep up. Wile E. Heresiarch 14:52, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Lists like this are important as a directory reference for people doing research. Davodd 16:04, Feb 18, 2004 (UTC)
- Move to Sony main page. Andre Engels 17:35, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- I agree with Andre; as long as the list isn't longer than it is today, it fits better as a section of the main company article than as a separate article (reconsider if/when list gets longer than, say, 15-20 items?). --Wernher 11:22, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- It's 14 items now. Anthony DiPierro 01:18, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Keep; or Move to Sony, not because a list of Sony products is insignificant but only because we already have too many articles, more than 200000, so we must find some way to merge some of them together. Having too many articles creates a Chaos, not an encyclopaedia. - Optim 01:30, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)
