Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

Hi, the article has passed speedy deletion review but editors may still question the notability of this article through the deletion process. Gwen Gale (talk) 18:23, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm so sorry. When I saw the additional content you added, I had to delete it as blatant advertising. Please do not try to recreate this. Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Thanks. Gwen Gale (talk) 18:26, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry. So hours and admissions cost aren't allowed on wikipedia? I'm not associated with the institute. Thanks! (Oregoncurtis (talk) 18:34, 31 May 2008 (UTC))
