Hi You have just deleted a article Spike Island Art Space which is an art organisation in Bristol. I was about to go back to edit more and it has been deleted. Why might i ask have you deleted this??

A prompt response would be appreciated

Hello Lori. It was deleted because it was written like an advertisement. There are a few other concerns as well: it looks suspiciously like a copyright violation. If the text was copy/pasted from a website, it is probably copyrighted, and Wikipedia cannot accept it. Additionally, since you are the marketing manager for this island, you have a conflict of interest, and probably should not be writing about this subject. If the place is notable, trust that someone else will write about it. Thank you and have a good day, Fang Aili talk 16:30, 2 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
