Topic does not pass WP:GNG. Currently, the article is not reliably sourced. A search only comes up with results showing the the 1:600 scale is used by some models, but no in-depth coverage discussing the significance of the 1:600 scale itself. Rusf10 (talk) 22:15, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep based on this VFD, we would have to have all the many other articles about scales on VFD as well. And, it's not just some models, many brands use this scale.Antonio El Muchacho de los Ojos Tristes Martin (di?) 22:23, May 5, 2021 (UTC)

That's WP:ALLORNOTHING. Why does this article specifically meet WP:GNG?--Rusf10 (talk) 22:56, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - fails the GNG. The fact that this scale is used is of no consequence: since it's never discussed in detail in reliable sources, it has to go. If the same is true for other articles, they should also be deleted. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 20:37, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I added an article on ESPN, which is a reliable source.Antonio Toy Model Martin (que que??) 05:32, May 9, 2021 (UTC)
    • That's a trivial mention, in my view. It states in passing that a model uses it, but there's nothing beyond that. The GNG requires significant coverage. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 05:46, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • No objection to a merge to List of scale model sizes. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 18:32, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Could we merge several 1:n00 scale pages?--SilverMatsu (talk) 00:17, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Excellent idea! Take some of the info on each page and include it on the new page...Antonio the product of a merge Martin (whats up?) 05;56, May 12, 2021 (UTC)

• Merge to existing page at List of scale model sizes. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia ^talk 18:23, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge per el cid, el campeador and Extraordinary Writ. As another topic, it looks like we'll need to merge 1:200 scale as well, but we might need another discussion to do this.--SilverMatsu (talk) 02:46, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
