[edit] Flying Purple Hippos

Insufficient notability, small membership roll [1] --NMChico24 04:36, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

• The clan has been the second most influential online community to Ensemble Studios, after HeavenGames. I think that's quite notable. Anyone who has ever visited HeavenGames knows of both the Flying Purple Hippo and the clan. Just because you know nothing about a topic, don't assume it is of "insufficient notability". Furthermore, 462 members is hardly a small membership roll, compared to most online groups that have wikipedia entries.

If you find other Wikipedia entries for online groups with fewer than 462 members, I suggest you nominate those for deletion as well. Cheers! --NMChico24 21:24, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
