as a stand alone hub for great information on homeowners association websites. While this may be a somewhat related link on pages like websites and virtual community, it is clearly related to the homeowners association page, and really there should be a seperate wikipedia page for
Homeowners Association websites,as they are a legitimate topic that people have questions and need information about. Is any of that problematic for you? if so please advise. Also, a homeowners association website is a type of website, just as a social media site is like Facebook, or myspace, or the are that describes commercial websites etc. It may be unrealistic to include examples of every type of website, but to suggest that a page that goes into detail on a particular type of website is "Wildy off topic" when the page itself has a section called "Types of website" subdivided into categories, makes little sense. Would you not agree with that line of thought? I understand you are trying to do your job and keep advertisers links off, but if in trying to do this you deprive wikipedia readers who seek information of a legitimate source, then everyone loses out.

where we sell website service, then that can be addressed. To state that the page contains no relevant information is an observation that could only be approached if you did not take the time to read the page. There are sections on everything from why legally it is hlepful to have one, to the processes one uses to arrive at a decision to get one, to a history of why communities choose or don't choose to have one. With all due respect to your opinion, this page is highly informational to anyone wanting to know about homeowners association websites. It's appearance on the "website' and virtual community pages, is within the listing of "types of websites". There are mnay types listed, particulary in the sections speaking about "Community" websites. Whatever the protocol is to challenge your deletion, I would like to officially follow it.
