- Why don't you create a user review in your user space, like this: User:Driesvandenelzen1/Flexaret automat VII, that you would link from this page? --Rebollo fr 11:39, 26 August 2006 (EDT)
Full name
I wonder if there is a particular reason to write "automat" in lowercase only, not "Automat". The fact that it is writeen "automat" on the camera itself is no reason: the camera is also written "flexaret", but we're writing "Flexaret". I suggest to change the title accordingly.
However, before settling for a new title, we need to know if the camera was called "Flexaret VII Automat" or "Flexaret Automat VII" by the company.
