I think it would be good to merge this page with the Mometta page, to make a single page on Momikon and Mometta. Do you agree? --rebollo_fr 09:05, 17 June 2010 (EDT)

Yes I agree but I prefer "Momikon, Mometta, Mometta II, Mometta III and Mometta Junior". "Momikon and Mometta" sounds just like two cameras. In case of the long title with 5 camera names I would add some details for the other Mometta cameras as well. (Sorry I am not so familiar to editing Camerapedia.) Thanks a lot. Pistik100d

I understand what you mean. But maybe the title would be a bit too long. What about "Momikon/Mometta series" or "Momikon and Mometta series" instead? There are precedents for this, for example Regula III series, Minolta XG series or Mamiya/Sekor TL/DTL series, circumventing the need for a full list of models.
In any case, I would certainly be very interested to read more details about these cameras here. --rebollo_fr 12:57, 21 June 2010 (EDT)

I checked Zorki cameras. Zorki 1, 2, 3,...9 etc all of them has own page. (Maybe the final solution for us would be 5 separate pages for the 5 member of the Mometta series.) If I type for example: "Mometta II" into the search window the actual Mometta page will not appear directly. For this reason I think the very long title "Momikon, Mometta, Mometta II, Mometta III and Mometta Junior" would be the ideal containing the full name of 5 cameras. Because of the relatively small difference between the cameras I agree to have only one page for the 5 cameras but I really would prefer to have the 5 names separately in the list of cameras. I respect these cameras much better than just to mention them as Mometta series (so would be nice to list them one by one).

Anyway special thanks for your interest on these cameras. Thanks a lot. Pistik100d

You are right: some camera families have one page for each model. But these tend to have much duplicated information, and I think they are less appealing to the reader than pages about a complete line of cameras.
For the title, the choice is really yours, as you will probably be the most prominent contributor of the page. Feel free to adopt which title you think best.
For the behaviour of the search engine, the best solution is to create a redirect. For example, if you type "Minolta XG-2" in the search engine, you will be redirected to the "Minolta XG series" page, thanks to this auxiliary page: [1]. You can create one for each of the Momikon and Mometta models: "Momikon", "Mometta", "Mometta II", "Mometta III" and "Mometta Junior".
