@vauweh, I'm assuming the second link is the one we want?

@krisrodriguez Yes, but: It's a bit confusing. If you use english as language, there is...- appliance-vacuum and carpet cleaner-riparazione vk150 (italian). In german there is the correct taxonomy ... Haushaltsgeräte (appliance) -Staubsauger (Vacuum and carpet cleaner) -Kobold (Not existing)-Kobold VK150

@vauweh, yes there seems to be different taxonomy based on language. In this instance though, are you saying that the second one is the one we want or are you pointing out that the taxonomy varies across languages?

The second one is the right one. We do not need the other one. And indeed, the taxonomy seems to depend from language, I wonder about this.

@vauweh, Thanks for clearing that up! I went ahead and deleted the incomplete guide like we talked about. Really appreciate you helping keep things tidy.

The second device contains more information.

The second one is more complete, it's only missing the iRobot "Generaly Assembly" diagram that the first has.

The second one is more complete, it's only missing the documents that the first one has. Also IMO, the summary of the first one is better than the second one.

@knipwim, Thanks for the heads-up! I went ahead and transferred over the missing documents from the first one, and also brought over the summary since it felt stronger. Thank you for catching this.

@krisrodriguez I accidentally created two pages for the same device:

https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Saeco_Magi...

The page without guides is not needed, can you please delete it?
