Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Cougartown

I believe some clarification is in order. Cougartown focuses on Hawthorne High School but it is dedicated to discussion and preservation of the history and culture of the entire region. There are many participants from the surrounding communities that make up the greater South Bay and Airport area of Los Angeles. This site captures "oral" histories similar to those captured by Studs Terkel and other writers devoted to reconstructing history and culture from the vantage point of ordinary people. The Cougartown reader is able to trace the evolution of the national and Los Angeles are media from the 1950s through the present. Events, significant and ordinary, are viewed through the prism of generations of a working class community. Literally, there is no other site on the internet that can convey this unique, generation spanning perspective. To my way of thinking, this makes Cougartown not just significant but important.

 * Comment. I completely agree with you. However, it appears that from the Wiki editor(s) standpoint, not enough people knew about the site to make it notable. Sad to see the site go. 69.234.158.44 02:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
