Deletion of YoVille Article[edit]

Hi Graeme, You have specified on the YoVille page that the page was deleted due to 'Article about an eligible subject, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject)'.

Just wondering that if this is the case, then how is there articles of Mafia Wars and FarmVille? Some people like to look up the applications that they install on their Facebook profiles.

I have not seen the original article on Wikipedia, but if it is as general as the other articles about Zynga games, then why was it deleted?

The article by User:The Web Person said: "YoVille is an online simulation game created by Zynga that is compatible with MySpace and Facebook." An article should claim something more than that the thing exists. You are welcome to create it again if it is important, but please say why it is! Usually we avoid comparing with other articles, as they may have to be deleted too! For the other two games you mentioned, they won awards, or were the most popular, so that shows they are important.
