Freinds I am making a page for Calgary and District Cricket League in calgary, its a cricket League and its been in calgary since 1908, I am not advertsising any profitable item, why the page is deleted —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nadeem.altaf (talk • contribs) 18:48, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
- The article was deleted because articles simply consisting of a title of an organization and the organization's contact information are considered to be advertising. It looks like the best thing for you to do would be to have a look at Wikipedia:Article development and glean some tips on how to write good articles. Cheers!
