Thanks for joining Wikipedia. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Wikipedia policy does not allow the use of userspace for purposes unrelated to the building of the encyclopedia, as you have done at User:Firman08. As such, I've deleted the material there. If you'd like to create a page for your soccer team, there are a number of good free web hosting services which can be found through Google. Thanks.

Please stop. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia you will be blocked from editing. ''Please don't keep recreating the article. It will inevitably be deleted again. All you are doing is wasting people's time in processing it, and building yourself a history of disruptive behaviour which is heading closer and closer to a ban'' Mayalld (talk) 13:47, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Corton FC
You have repeatedly been pointed at policies, in particular WP:N is relevant. Copyright isn't the issue here. Notability is. This club simply isn't sufficiently notable to have an article.

There is also the problem that this article appears NOT to be about the real Corton FC (founded 1902), but is instead something of an "in-joke" amongst you and your mates - refer to WP:MADEUP.

You say that you wish the article to include information on Lowestoft culture. Well, write about it in an article about Lowestoft. Creating an article about a football club of dubious provenance to talk about Lowestoft culture isn't allowed - see WP:COATRACK.

This article doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell of avoiding deletion, and recreating it when it gets deleted won't help. The admins have better things to do than get into a pissing contest of create/delete/create/delete etc, and will eventually solve the problem by blocking you.

 * Thanks for the reply. Whilst I appreciate that the answer I gave may not have been what you were hoping for, it was a reasonable and reasoned answer. I am simply a user of Wikipedia. It happens that I became involved in the deletion of these articles, but that is mere chance. If I hadn't, then somebody else would have done so. The point being that the article didn't comply with Wikipedia policy, and was incapable of being edited to do so. Polcy is polocy, and it isn't in my gift to say "oh well, go on, have an article that doesn't comply. If I could address a couple of the specific points that you made;
 * You thought that the article was deleted due to copyright issues - That is unfortunate, as it doubtless led to you working to fix the wrong problem. However, the notices that were posted to your talk page when the article wqas flagged for deletion do make it clear that notability is the problem.
 * You believe that I accused you of creating a joke - No, I questioned whether the article was verifiable from reliable sources, because googling for Corton Football Club brings up information about an entirely different and longer established club. I take it that the club you are writing about is a club made up of fans of the longer established club, rather than the "official" club (as I recall the article described the club as "unofficial". On that basis, the article was misnamed. Corton FC could only be used for a hypothetical article about the official club. An article about your club would need to be called Corton fans FC or similar.
 * Having said all that, it hasn't been established that the official Corton FC meets the notability criteria, and it is very clear that the club you were writing about doesn't meet the criteria.
 * I did indeed suggest that you write about Lowestoft (or perhaps you could write about Corton). However, this article is not the place to write about them. You should write about Lowestoft in the Lowestoft article or about Corton in the Corton, Suffolk article.
 * I think it would be fair to say that the Corton FC article was written slightly tongue in cheek, and with a humorous slant on life in Corton. It made enjoyable reading, but Wikipedia is about creating a factual encyclopedia, not humorous light reading.
 * I hope that this explains a little of what the problem is. As I see it, some or all of the following may be a way forward;
 * Edit the Lowestoft or Corton articles to add some of the material that you want to add (but with the tone adjusted to be more "encyclopedic")
 * Add a section about Corton FC to the Corton page, and add a subsection about the supporters team
 * If you can establish that the official Corton FC is notable, then create a page about them, and add information about the supporters team as a section of that article.
