Talk:HPI Baja 5B/5T
 | This article has not yet been rated on Wikipedia's content assessment scale. |
Though this may seem like spam, the things posted on here are things that will help Baja 5B owners. The point of this encyclopedia is to guide, and aid users. This page helps them, because the things I talk about are all useful to the owners of this vehicle. Without these items, they will have some sort of problem, and I am trying to aid them, by letting them know that these items will help solve their problems. If you don't agree, then I shall delete the actual, specific, names of these items, and instead use general terms, such as air filter, pipe, head kit, etc.
- Delete per WP:ADVERT. Wikipedia is WP:NOT: WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_manual.2C_guidebook.2C_or_textbook and WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_an_indiscriminate_collection_of_information. Mkdwtalk 18:07, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
I deleted everything considered spam.
Please read WP:NOT#HOWTO, the relevant section is:
# Instruction manuals. While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instructions, advice (legal, medical, or otherwise) or suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes.[1] If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at our sister project Wikibooks.
A how-to article like this isn't really appropriate to wikipedia. Improbcat 18:18, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Requested move edit
Baja 5b → HPI Baja 5B — Shouldn't the titling be brand name first followed by model name (example Tamiya Hornet) —Willirennen 15:24, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Discussion edit
- Any additional comments:
What fuel does it use? edit
- "gas powered buggy.": A gaseous gas (e.g. propane), or gasoline (= petrol)? Anthony Appleyard 16:52, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- Although I never owned a largescale RC car before, I would say like all RC cars, either glow fuel or nitromethane, the Radio-controlled car article will explain it better.
I have made changes to despam the article, let me know what do you think of it. Willirennen 21:51, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- ^ Note the how-to restriction does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia.
