North Shore Coed Slowpitch Softball League
A tag has been placed on North Shore Coed Slowpitch Softball League, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (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. GlassCobra (talk • contribs) 04:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Please stop. If you continue to ignore our policies by introducing inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, you will be blocked. GlassCobra (talk • contribs) 04:30, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Good to know this has amused you. Hardly an appropriate response though.
 * I'm sorry, but articles detailing local rec leagues typically are not notable. Please do not recreate this article again unless there are multiple, non-trivial, reliable sources that can establish notability.  Thanks, Resolute 04:43, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. At least your message was civil and seemed to understand that not everyone is as au fait with wikipedia protocols as yourself. The significance of this league is in it's unique position in fostering coed sports added to which it adds a considerable amount of local historical knowledge to people who otherwise would know little of events of 200+ years ago. If you don't consider that appropriate then I'll accept that. Unlike glASScobra your intervention has come across as well intentioned. I guess that's why we (the world!) prefer Canadians to Americans !!
