Generic name

I've been trying to find a generic non-trademarked name for the water slide described by this article. From what I can see, EA refers to this as a "lawn water slide" in a blurb about The Sims 4: Backyard Stuff. Searching for similar real-life products on Amazon (as an example) also gives a category of "lawn water slide." The reason I mention this is because the name "Slip 'N Slide" is a privately-held trademark for a commercial product. As such, it would be best if we didn't use the trademarked name as the name of an article on The Sims Wiki. It seems as though 'Lawn water slide' would be a more suitable generic name, with other derivatives (including Slip 'N Slide) as redirects. -- LiR ^{talk • blog • contribs} 03:12, July 13, 2016 (UTC)
