AfD nomination of Shaw History

I have nominated Shaw History, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shaw History. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Some suggestions

You'll see that I've moved (renamed) the page to Shaw Preservation Society, which better reflects the entry. If you wish to preserve it from deletion (sorry, I had to), the best thing to do is an edit that will reflect why it is a notable group. Best of all is to include references from accepted secondary sources that will back such an assertion up. Further wikifying and categorizing the entry will make it a valuable contribution rather than something up for deletion. 9Nak (talk) 17:31, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
