This article about Gutensite should not have been deleted. Gutensite is a commerical Content Management system used by thousands of individuals and organizations. It is not yet as large as some content management systems (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joomla or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wordpress) but it is no less worthy or legitimate a subject for a wikipedia article, in fact it is notably unique in many ways. Whatever makes those content management systems appropriate for an article, makes Gutensite appropriate. I don't use wikipedia much, so I don't know all the ins and outs, for example, where can I find the original article that I wrote? And how can we put it back on wikipedia so that the work is not wasted. That's very frustrating. I was not notified that it was being deleted and I don't sign in that often so I missed the "speedy deletion" contesting period. If there is some needed work to improve the article, fine, but it should not be unilaterally deleted.

The Notability Guidelines for Business (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies)) notes, "Large organizations are likely to have more readily available verifiable information from reliable sources that provide evidence of notability; however, smaller organizations can be notable, just as individuals can be notable, and arbitrary standards should not be used to create a bias favoring larger organizations."
