	I'm not sure why references to my Beckett Ridge Swim Team are being struck. This is a non-profit group, and they are an integral part of the Beckett Ridge community, just as the Mission Viejo Natadores are part of that community.

Community ban: nominating articles for deletion

Per community discussion at WP:ANI (), you have been indefinitely banned from nominating articles for deletion through any means, including WP:PROD, WP:CSD and WP:AFD. You are permitted to participate in deletion discussions that have been launched by somebody else. Although several participants in the conversation felt that an expiration of six months might be appropriate, there was insufficient consensus to put an endpoint on the ban, which will remain in effect until successfully appealed. Please review Misplaced Pages:Banning policy. --Moonriddengirl
