Notability of North-South Skirmish Association
A tag has been placed on North-South Skirmish Association requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Gunnar Hendrich (talk) 12:31, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

I removed the speedy deletion tag. After googling it, it might be notable yet. You should consider using a less biased language in the article, though. Sentences like "But shooting is our purpose. We fire live rounds. We shoot firearms that are either original..." do not sound very encyclopedic. Sorry for tagging you. Gunnar Hendrich (talk) 12:44, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

August 2008
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. BusterD (talk) 10:28, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Intent of Edits by CivilWarTalk 08/2008
First of all, most of the criticism of this entry should really be directed to the original authors of this entry. Please refer to the history of the original topic for this entry "n-ssa". Perhaps I moved this data improperly, but yes I'm still new to all of this.

However, my intention was actually to improve and clean up this information, again I am not the original author of this entry. I am trying to take out much of the personal opinion. I will attempt as time permits to rebuild this entry with appropriate content so that it will more appropriately fit the Wikipedia policy.

 * I hope you understand that your link insertions on the each of the following Antietam, Seven Days, Fort Donelson, and Shiloh pages links to Civilwartalk.com, a website with which it appears you have some affiliation. It is for these edits I posted the standard COI warning. BusterD (talk) 11:42, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * All that said, welcome to more active editing, good luck with the N-SSA page and if you need any help feel free to contact me on my talk. BusterD (talk) 12:22, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Glad to see you're trying stuff out. BusterD (talk) 15:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Not to put too fine a point on it, but the association pagespace you've been improving sure could use a nice image or two... I wonder who might have some? BusterD (talk) 15:51, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
