 * Recreating it will get you blocked. If you think it shouldn't be deleted, please leave me a message, or post a request at Deletion requests. Bawolff ☺☻ 03:08, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I've restored it. However I would ask that you put on it when you're done, and let someone else publish it. Bawolff ☺☻ 03:34, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Also please ensure it meets Content guide. Bawolff ☺☻ 03:37, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Someone else came to the same conclussion I did, and deleted it. If you think that some version of it may be a news article, I suggest you work on this page. However the content doesn't really seem to be news to me. See also Talk:Arizona_Mortgages Bawolff ☺☻ 11:29, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
