- I note your comment on my talk page regarding this article, which I have deleted. As an off-topic remark, it is usual to place comments at the bottom of a page, not at the top. To answer your question in a wholly straightforward way; your article reads as an advertisement. It advertises the DVD, it advertises the presenter of the DVD and it advertises the Company producing it. If you wish to challenge my action, which you or any editor is fully at liberty to do with any administrator action, the place to go is WP:DRV.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 11:52, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
