Product listing in article[edit]

I do not think that the Aimpoint article should contain a listing of Aimpoint products. Consider the similar pages: EOTech, Trijicon, ELCAN - none of these include product listings. I would like to work toward some sort of consensus on this issue, as I have now removed the product listing twice and do not want to create an edit war. I am not an experienced Wikipedia editor, so do not know which policies to reference, but I recall instructions that product and company pages should avoid sounding like an advertisement, and I think that such a comprehensive enumeration of products verges into that territory.

Agree. Since it was re-added without comment I have reverted the edit per WP:NOTCATALOG and WP:BRD. It is excessive and not encyclopedic per the guideline. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 02:03, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Aimpoint AB → Aimpoint – "AB" is similar to Inc (U.S.) or Limited (UK), and is usually only included in article titles as disambiguation when the common name would be confusing (e.g. Apple Inc. to differentiate from Apple. However, there is nothing which sounds like "Aimpoint", the closest thing being aiming point which is sufficiently different to not cause confusion. Elshad (talk) 14:13, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
