Wichita Pride
I'm not sure whether you are a first time editor (few edits) or an experienced editor using a new name (posh banner above). If it's the latter, forgive me for stating the obvious. The deleted text lacked independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It was also written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. It also had direct links in the text to the organisation's website. The text is fairly short, so I'll just paste it below instead of sandboxing, feel free to remove it when you have copied it, cheers  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:56, 5 November 2012 (UTC) Wichita Pride is the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) Pride Festival and Parade held every June in Wichita, Kansas, USA.

A toast to the people in new york, seems an unassuming begining for wichita's first LGBT organization. Yet this is what happened (according to lore) and a year later the first "pride" event to celebrate the stonewall uprising. This first event was an impersonator show (and drink specials) at our local private club. success, the Wichita Pride Festival was born,the year was 1972.

This annual event is the centerpiece in a month-long celebration of the uniqueness and rich diversity of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community in Wichita, Kansas. Wichita Pride has become one of the fastest growing Pride events in the entire Midwest area.

The purpose of the Wichita Pride Festival & Parade is to promote pride in and knowledge of the richness and diversity of the community through the organization and promotion of annual LGBT Pride events (Pride Festival, Pride Parade, Rally, etc) held in Wichita, Kansas.
