Hi, thanks for message. , I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the organisation claims or interviewing its management. None of your text had independent in line references. Although you put some urls at the end, they appeared to be affiliated pages, and we can't tell what fact each supports
 * you gave some references, but they were not in-line so we can't tell what fact each is supporting
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * We are not a free advertising service for your organisation, non-profit or otherwise. You didn't even bother to change it from first person
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include:  grown to over 200 members in 2016... After a long week, what's better than enjoying nature and collecting your thoughts all while having fun and finally feeling like you call all of the shots? It's you and your kayak, working as a team, and amazingly enough all of your problems seem to fade away...&mdash; and so on, pure spam

 * the article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. Your page says Copyright © 2015 - Kayak-Anglers, obviously not PD. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
 * You have a conflict of interest when editing this article, and you must declare it. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
 * The version I deleted differred only in having external links to the club's web site, and to routine listing of the club on sites about the hobby. None of these are adequate references for notability--and moreover it remained an advertisement--an advertisement so blatant that we would have immediately deleted it even if the organization were proven to be famous.And similarly for copyvio.
