Gillette M3 Power[edit]

This is WikiPedia Product placement - TiVO anyone? Nlnnet 00:01, Aug 12, 2005 (UTC)

Advertising. Reads like it's copied from an ad somewhere. Rick K 00:01, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)

This screams copyvio, but I can't find it. This article is clearly advertising; however, there must be an article to merge this with (powered razor?). Meelar (talk) 00:59, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
Keep and rewrite to confirm to WP standards. Notable razor. Klonimus 01:56, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Agreed, but in order for that to happen, this needs to be deleted to get it out of the edit history. I'll bet this is copied verbatim from the package. Delete present version. - Lucky 6.9 02:20, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Delete - perhaps if we really must keep - The Gillette Company or Gillette Company products would be a place to merge it?--ZayZayEM 02:27, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge → The Gillette Company. —Mar ka ci 2005-04-4 T 02:27 Z
Keep famous and notable consumer product. Needs to be de-advert-ed though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:19, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
Semi-Keep (basically a keep but want to redirect) - I'm surprised that there isn't a general "Gillette Mach 3" Wikipedia article. If there is one then the "M3 Power" should be redirected to there instead because it is basically a part of their successful three-bladed razor series because I have a feeling someone will make a "Gillette Mach 3 Turbo" article someday. --Anonymous Cow 03:38, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Redirect & Merge with The Gillette Company --Fuzzball! 03:51, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge to The Gillette Company. Dave the Red 07:01, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
Keep all major brands. N-Man 07:47, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Given that searching for "M3" and "totally new shaving experience" garners 163 hits on catalogue shopping sites for the same advertising copy, this has to be a Copyvio. As per Lucky 6.9 this must go. We don't have individual articles for individual brands of chewing gum within a family so re-create as Redirect to The Gillette Company, a 4-sentence article about a company with plenty of room for details of its popular products. Uncle G 09:07, 2005 Apr 4 (UTC)
Keep, merge or rename - the Mach 3 is a notable (and really good) razor and if it doesn't have an article it should. I'm less sure there's an article's worth of material on every variant within the Mach 3 range, however - David Gerard 09:17, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge with Gilette. Radiant _* 13:16, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
Merge with Gilette. Shimmin 17:29, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
Must be copyvio - Delete and redirect to The Gillette Company which clearly wants expanding. SteveW 17:37, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge to Gilette CDC (talk) 04:15, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
merge inside gillette. Yuckfoo 01:34, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Either merge as above, or heavily revise to remove hypespeak. The article is fine, the content is poor. --Asriel86 00:54, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
Merge. as others have indicated. --Wgfinley 20:00, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge, redirect or keep. unsigned comment from a school person.
