Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it meets WP:GNG. Honestly, with the sources I provided, I'm really surprised to see somebody try to CSD it immediately after I created it. --– Muboshgu (talk) 16:54, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
