It was deleted since it didn't make a claim of notability, nor does it seem to be of any particular significance. Being apparently a single server with a limited number of users. wikipedia is not an internet directory, pointing to other articles you believe are worse is seldom a good argument. I have however restored the article for now and will put it through the full deletion process to get broader input. --pgk 15:39, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes you are welcome to continue editing the article while the deletion process goes on (except for blanking it or removing the deletion notice) --pgk 15:47, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
OK, I'll leave things in place for a while yet, just in case you change your mind. Though a couple of points you seem to have taken a reasonably agressive stance in defending the article, it shouldn't as too much of a suprise when others then agressively defend their viewpoint. People make genuine mistakes, if a server wasn't available for some reason (even be it a problem with their own ISP) they may draw the wrong conclusion, jumping up and down about it is unlikely to help, politely asking them to check again as it works fine for you is likely to get a better response. I understand your reasoning for posting the article, but really wikipedia doesn't work like that, a network of 150 people is not likely to be seen as of general interest to wikipedia's readership, certain .wikipedia channels regularly attract many more than that, let alone the whole network. Some of this comes back to what I said above, wikipedia is not an internet directory and if it comes across as that being the only value the article adds then you aren't likely to get much support There are millions of websites, blogs, forums etc. the regular users of which are often convinced provides a service unique in some manner, but generally only appealing to a certain "market" doesn't actually make it unique enough to be of general interest in it's existance. --pgk 07:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
