::You and I both know that mere existence is sufficient for inclusion, and that the so-called "notability criteria" are wrong and irrelevant. Media-coverage is absolutely not the be-all-end-all of worthiness.

:::Sum, ergo an article? I think you need to reread [[WP:N]] and [[WP:V]], because you may think that mere existence guarantees an article, but that is not the case. While editing boldly is great, the threshold for inclusion is that a subject must be covered extensively in some form of media (it need not be mainstream media, and media itself need not even be electronic, but there must be some third party independent source which verifies the subjects notability, otherwise Wikipedia policy AND the community consensus is that there should not be an article). By your reasoning, I am eligible for an article ... and that is hardly the case.[[User:LonelyBeacon|LonelyBeacon]] ([[User talk:LonelyBeacon#top|talk]]) 13:33, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
::::I'm quite aware of what those pages say. They're wrong, irrelevant, and null and void. Mere existence is indeed the only valid criterion for inclusion. And yes, you are indeed eligible for an article.

That article has been warped beyond the point of referring to it as ''My'' Article. Although this ''was'' one of my earliest articles, what the article really needs is someone willing to rewrite it into a decent article. There is also the issue of the lack of electronic resources concerning the Marching Titans. I just now checked the status of the article, and there have been three attempts to delete it all resulting in a "keep" consensus. Eventually I plan to get to it but since I had thought it had already been deleted I didn't give it any thought, but right now, I don't have the time to deal with it as I am more concentrated on other things and I am also working a great deal of overtime at work until mid-May at the earliest. If its still around in June or sometime later, I will then have time to re-write the article.
