IMHO: there is also a large difference in audience. The Ubuntu Hardware
page is for people who might be worried that their hardware will not
work with Ubuntu. I do not think Fedora's user base is as timid.
My experience in the Computer Science Dept at the University of Illinois
is that the researchers believe Fedora is too bleeding edge and want
something current, but on slower cycle. So they prefer Ubuntu, CentOS or
previously Scientific Linux.
The Ubuntu certification page makes it easier for the researcher to
justify to their group leader that the purchase is a good decision so
they can focus on the code instead of getting wifi to work right.

Hi
We had earlier an HCL hw database, just we had retired long ago -
because of plenty of subversions of hw, and were a mess. Ubuntu has
preloaded laptops, desktops that they are selling - we don't have
that. Moreover every year mass of laptops and computer components are
appearing, and I think there is no chance to cover it continuously, as
we are changing Fedora either in 6 month cycle.

An article with the best hardware and laptop models that support Fedora out
of the box will really attract Linux newcomers to make Fedora their first
choice.
Ubuntu already makes it easy through a large list:

Hello!
I don't remember anyone bringing this topic, but if it's possible to do
it I would love an article about this. I think it could be quite helpful.
Cheers,
Sylvia

Has someone considered making an article about the best laptops to
install Fedora?
