Illinois Numismatic Association
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Illinois Numismatic Association, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.ilnaclub.org/past. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 05:33, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Illinois Numismatic Association
A tag has been placed on Illinois Numismatic Association requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:50, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Advice
By our usual practices, clubs and association like this on a state scale are only notable if they engage in something important enough to attract public notice in third party published sources. Frankly, it doesn't look to me as if it is likely that your association will be able to show that--this is true of most state-wide clubs of this nature. If you think you can show it, write an intermediate length article with references, according to WP:RS and WP:ORG I recognize your frustration at having a long article deleted because of copying your website, and a short one as not saying anything significant, but I'm not sure there's a good way for  to handle it. If you look around here, you'll see most of our societies and clubs are either of national scope,or have some activities that get into major news sources. If I can help further, let me know.
