Your deletion has had a cascading effect, because now, since you've deleted this article, it left a broken link in another article. That article has since been edited to remove that broken link, and the content that went with it. Meaning that, yet again, there is an ambiguity problem on the Wiki in

Part of your answer is above, which led me to the page. The rest is noted in the article's deletion summary: "notability not asserted". It's not enough for an article to be accurate; articles that fail to assert their subjects' notability may be deleted by administrators on sight. Please review
