• Comment: on wikipedia, we typically ask for 3+ secondary reliable sources to prove notability. the canyon falls site is a blog so unreliable per WP:UGC. i cant find much info about slashgear; could be reliable but not sure. i would be skeptical aobut using it to prove notability because the site isn't very mainstream grapesurgeon (talk) 02:39, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
