Hello,

Just new to Wikipedia. Trying desperately to catch on with all the requirements and guidelines. Think what you're doing is great and proud to contribute. The subject of this contribution is an organization tied to innovative and pioneering efforts to join the recreational community with the scientific community for the purposes of species and habitat preservation, research and global awareness. It's the official sanctioning body of the long-established sport of Land-Based Shark Fishing -- the title of another article, which I'm trying depserately to adhere to, with regard to some notices after saving the page earlier today. Trying -- very hard. Please grant more time to figure our requirements, guidelines, etc.

thanks and warm regards, Peter Swift

Speedy Deletion

I oppose the deletion of this article, on the grounds that it is the governing body of a sport which already has a well-edited wikipedia article (see Land-based shark fishing). Speedy deletion should not be used instead of cleanup tagging, and actual cleanup.--Vox Rationis (Talk | contribs) 20:07, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
