[edit] Interesting Wiki comment

I am still intriqued that your comments suggest that I must be infinitely famous to be included in wiki, or for our club to be included in wiki. Your quote:

What makes you so important that an international encyclopedia will still need an article about you a hundred years from now?

hits me as saying only those most famous people should be included, while wiki's standard says notability says specifically:

Notability is distinct from "fame", "importance", or "popularity"

Please take note that I am not trying to make a case for myslef to be included, as you said I shouldn't have to write an autobiography, and won't. I more wanted by listing on wiki to have more information for the club Unique Performance Volleyball, which I believe is material relevant to wikipedia.

Unique Performacne Volleyball is a sports program that competes in the USA Volleyball Junior national Championships and qualifiers, which is, as wiki says for amateur sports, the "highest level of competition". Also, the club is substantiated for it's 100% placement rate of seniors to ncaa or njcaa volleyball programs. Wiki is sorely missing information on top youth and amateur volleyball programs across the world, and hopefully this article (of which I have relevant knowledge) could start a trend.

Thanks.

Hey, I'm not the boss of Wikipedia. If you're sure that there should be an article on the subject, open a file at deletion review and make your case for undeletion. -FisherQueen (talk ยท contribs) 22:23, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
