Creating The Team page

This page started with a Zimbabwe contributor creating a page about a Zimbabwe television local series. The text was not of good standard either... The same day, a colleague nominated it as a non-notable local show that must be speedily deleted. As a member of "Article Rescue Squadron" I was reviewing the articles up for speedy deletion and decided to watch this 2-minute trailer by Zimbabwe TV as quoted by our new contributor and I was hooked... when this wonderful world of The Team based on youth's common love of football (soccer) opened up in front of my eyes like some revelation and I was at owe of this simple yet wonderful series in so many languages of the world and broadcast in so many countries in so many versions. The simplicity yet the genius behind this series just lit my heart with so much joy and reinforced my firm belief in what makes us so human and yes, so beautiful within. Yet it took a badly written text from a first time contributor and a quickly requested deletion by another colleague to keep the ball rolling and a keen editor (me) who just likes to discover new ideas to have this incredibly good initiative to make its way to Wikipedia as an independent page for eevryone to read. So "God" works in many mysterious ways, as the saying goes... My only concern... why we didn't have this The Team article a long time ago when it actually started... I know it is covered while discussing Search for Common Ground activities and projects, but it is so gratifying to see so many countries adopting the simple formula so effectively into their local situations. werldwayd (talk) 20:13, 20 August 2012 (UTC) werldwayd (talk) 20:18, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
