I understand the guidelines are meant to avoid crap articles; I also understand that I made a mistake by not constructing the article first in my sandbox. What I'm not happy about is that no one involved in marking or deleting the article suggested it at the time. There is no conflict of interest here, as this is not my website. I live in the area and found the website, and thought it would be fun to write an article on them, since my hobby is writing. I obviously have a lot to learn about how new contributors are treated on Wikipedia. [[User:AryconVyper|AryconVyper]] ([[User talk:AryconVyper#top|talk]]) 15:01, 12 February 2011 (UTC) |

Thank you to whoever thought that the article needed speedy deletion, without bothering to allow me time to clean up the article and improve it to meet guidelines. It was an article UNDER CONSTRUCTION, not a stub for spam promotion. AryconVyper (talk) 14:39, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
