If you bothered to read the thread I linked, you might notice it is 6 pages of posts from a large number of people in a locked thread. Several of the people work for the organization and this can be verified.

::This is like saying that a desktop computer is "useless without the video BIOS provided by nVidea". Because that is what the "blob" is, it is the equivalent of the video BIOS. and other computers also cannot boot without the video BIOS contained in ROM on the video card. This isn't an issue as the blob is freely distributed with the PI, just as the video BIOS is freely distributed with the video card. Just as normal users do not care about the BIOS in their video cards, why should PI users care about this non-problem. You can remark about this technical difference, but not in the context of a "problem". [[User:Mahjongg|Mahjongg]] ([[User talk:Mahjongg|talk]]) 12:52, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

I see one place where it says 512MB and another that says 1M. I don't think Pi 2 had 1M, the Pi 3 does. I do have both.

== PR speak - [[WP:NPOV]] ==
Encyclopedic articles should not parrot the company's or organization's talking points and PR slogans. Intentions, motives, and the developers' overall desire to make the world a better place (sorry for the sarcasm) are not encyclopedic facts. Product achievements and successes should not be praised empathically, but described in a ''neutral'' and ''uninvolved'' tone. Of course editors are excited about such new technologies and developments, but these positive opinions should ''not'' be reflected in the article's main text (except from a properly sourced and attributed "Reception" section). I'll try to tone down some of the problematic phrases, but more care should be taken to meet the requirements of [[WP:NPOV]].

== Commercial use ==
[[User:Proogs|Proogs]] ([[User talk:Proogs|talk]]) 11:18, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
Hi; I don't edit wikipedia much other than minor edits, so I hope this is right place to ask this.
I added some info about a commercial use for a Pi - the Robe MiniMe - that's been reverted. I'd linked to the product's own webpage as proof of its inclusion in the product but I think you need a more independent source. Would an article in the industry press be sufficient? I've found PLSN's road test of the product - would this be a better reference?
[http://plsn.com/articles/road-tests/robe-minime/ PLSN's article] It actively talks about the use of the Raspberry Pi as a media server within the unit.
If it's OK, perhaps someone can revert the text back again with this as the reference, please?
Thanks.
:The information needs a source to confirm it is notable. An industry source may be suitable, better than first party source. Also, the content shouldn't be seen as advertising a product - something Wikipedians are particularly vigilant about. More information at [[Wikipedia:Citing sources]]. Feel free to add content back if you have suitable sources. [[User:Jonpatterns|Jonpatterns]] ([[User talk:Jonpatterns|talk]]) 12:05, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks - it's rather difficult to talk about commercial use of something and to name the product without someone taking it as an advert. Is there an accepted way of phrasing something such that it mentions a commercial product without it being misinterpreted? Perhaps I should just be nonspecific when mentioning it - but then it becomes a useless addition to the 'commercial' section!

== infobox name ==
I noticed that the infobox name is '''"Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (latest version)"''' - this is incorrect, as the article is '''"Raspberry Pi"''' and the infobox title should reflect this. I went into the article to change it, and see the following:
<nowiki>|name = Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (latest version) <!-- Please don't rename --></nowiki>
What rationale is there for there to be an insistence on "Please don't rename"? Having the title as "Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (latest version)" is a bad thing - the B+ doesn't even have a section within the article, yet we announce it at the top.
The model history is covered in the Overview section - it's not the job of the infobox to list the latest model available. [[User:Chaheel Riens|Chaheel Riens]] ([[User talk:Chaheel Riens|talk]]) 13:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
: Agreed. The image caption should be model specific, the infobox title shouldn't. [[User:Andy Dingley|Andy Dingley]] ([[User talk:Andy Dingley|talk]]) 14:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Date in paragraph is 2019. A future date in the context does not seem correct. I do not know the correct date. [[User:Simonthecarpenter|Simonthecarpenter]] ([[User talk:Simonthecarpenter|talk]]) 22:46, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

== Second paragraph cleanup ==
Does the article actually benefit from having ''that'' many figures of n-boards-sold-by-month-M? I can understand an important milestone or two in addition to one recent figure, but 5 in total seems a bit much. [[User:BZRatfink|BZRatfink]] ([[User talk:BZRatfink|talk]]) 02:10, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
:Agree, both the amount of detail and its placement as a prominent lead paragraph are undue weight. Several of these numbers are also only based on the organization's information from press releases and interviews, and do not represent significant lead-worthy milestones (which should be established by in-depth coverage in truely independent non-PR publications).
