[edit] Pinafore Pirates and The Future (book)

I recently saw the Pirates of Penzance and HMS Pinafore performed on consecutive evenings in Buxton so this title jumped to my notice. But this article is a series of synopses of completed/projected plays written by 11/12 year old Maulik Thakkar et al. It really pains me to dent Maulik's enthusiasm but, very sadly, non-notable. -- RHaworth 20:38, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete Why not create a user account, put this project on the user page and maybe, after it has had some performance success, rethink whether it's become notable enough to resubmit as an article? Dlyons493 21:12, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. I userfied this to User:Maulik2005. But he objected strongly so I am re-opening this debate and adding his latest creation. -- RHaworth 07:43, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
• My Comment - I strongly objected to this deletion because I am that author. RHaworth, will you not give a chance for me to rise from my humble home and try and rise from this simpleness? You really pain me to dent my enthusiasm, huh? Well, what did I do wrong by attempting to simply share what I write with wikipedians. My articles cannot be deleted, and that is as firm as that. If you insist on it, then please delete my account: Maulik2005. I won't be returning to wikipedia. --Maulik2005 10:15, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Maulik, dear boy, this is your chance. Other Wikipedians may come to your rescue and leave a string of keep votes here. If they do, I shall abide by their decision. In fact, count yourself lucky, I am sure there are some admins who would have said "11/12 year old - cannot be notable" and speedily deleted as a gut reaction. -- RHaworth 11:11, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

• Must the argument go on? How is it possibly my chance? If you, RHaworth, are going to insist on deletion, then please do so. I won't returning to Wikipedia, where 11/12-year-olds can't try to become somebody out there. In short, you are accusing me of something which is not, repeat, is not my fault. This is my last posting. --Maulik2005 12:42, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
