Hi, Dfruzzetti, and welcome to WikiProject San Francisco Bay Area! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles relevant to the Bay Area. Here are some points that may be helpful: Our main aim is to help improve Bay Area-related articles, so if people ask for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able. Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page. It is highly recommended that you watchlist it. The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, which you are welcome to participate. Our system for improving lower-quality articles is Jumpaclass. If you'll be editing stub, start, or B-class articles, consider using Jumpaclass to track your progress. If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign Bay Area topics. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We hope you enjoy working on this project.

Proposed deletion of Fruzzetti type reflecting telescope

The article Fruzzetti type reflecting telescope has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Original research and promotional - fails WP:SPAM, WP:OR, WP:RS

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. andy (talk) 22:30, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

• I have assumed that your comment on the article's talk page means that you wish it to be deleted. I added a tag which will attract the attention of an administrator who will do this. andy (talk) 23:12, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

• • yeah yeah; no worries -- I didn't really understand the particulars of the requirements before this, so now I've educated myself and it makes sense.
