VaS, I understand your consternation over the clan page deletion, but please try to look at it from the perspective of someone looking at all of Wikipedia. You bring up the example of feces. Well, it's safe to say that in 20 years, humanity will still care about feces, and yet the chance that we'll (even that you would) care about this gaming group is slim to non-existant.

There are plenty of places that you can build a guild/clan/community site. Wikipedia isn't really the right choice, IMHO. -Harmil 12:48, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * First off, I hope your'e not taking this personally. I'm not trying to be hard on you, just trying to explain this so that it doesn't seem like it's a random process. To your points:
 * I'm glad you have a community site. Cool. Of course, that brings up the question: why do you need an entry in Wikipedia?
 * This is an odd conversation to have had to segue into, but there are industries (manure, guano), branches of medicine (gastroenterology) and many more topics that touch on feces. I guarantee you that when an accredited college offers a PhD in the study of your guild, you will have an entry on Wikipedia.
 * I know it seems like that, but get back to me in 20 years, and let me know how it went. My email address won't have changed by then.
 * More generally, I think the best way to consider this is, "what aspect of modern or historical life can you not tell the story of without listing your gaming clan"? Even the very game you play in can be described in detail without having to discuss any particular group of players. That's pretty much the dividing line. -Harmil 13:30, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
