Hi - please see the Wikipedia guidelines on notability of articles; you will need to show that your operation has been written about by reliable secondary sources, for example. Get back to me on my talk page if you're not sure about any of this (I know it's daunting the first time you read it!) ELIMINATORJR 21:21, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I took a look at the deleted article and I hve to say that the deletion was proper. Wikipedia articles are limited to notable topics. The notability of a group is generally established by press coverage, awards, or similar 3rd-party recognition. Our relevant guidelines are at WP:ORG. There are thousands and thousands of clubs that may do fine work but are simply not notable in a global encyclopedia. There are some other wiki projects, such as at Wikia, that might be more open to hosting content on a video game clan. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 21:22, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
