Please remember that entries at Wikipedia are supposed to be encyclopedia articles. The article you created at Seamanship - USCG Auxiliary Division 18 (1SR)‎ reads more like an essay. It further does not draw on any independent reliable sources to explain what USCG Auxiliary seamanship is. As a result, it has currently been proposed for deletion. —C.Fred (talk) 20:26, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Seamanship - USCG Auxiliary Division 18 (1SR)
Another editor has added the  template to the article Seamanship - USCG Auxiliary Division 18 (1SR), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
