Your article on the Minnesota Marine Art Museum has been deleted a) as it is a copyright violation, being a copy of http://www.minnesotamarineart.org/ and b) as it is clearly promotional. Articles in Wikipedia must be neutral and factual, and must not be promotional.

It is also forbidden to have a username which promotes any organisation, which your username clearly does. You are free to continue editing, but I would strongly recommend doing so under another username. DJ Clayworth (talk) 18:36, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
