To talk:Bettia 13:14 30 August 2010 Monday

Dear Bettia,

My name is Art Scott and I'm a retired U.S. Army combat chopper pilot, former pilot for the 160th SOAR. From 1990-1993 I competed in and won a several tournaments on the NASKA circuit, even winning the Grand-Championship in Weapons Kata/Open Division, both in the Budweiser Nationals, and for the year in 1991 and 1992. From what I can see in your participation log, you are the one who deleted NASKA as a legitimate topic from Wikipedia. Now, I'm 44 and retired, but I do give the odd seminar, travel with Professor Thomas Sotis, and Joyce Santamaria and I consider each other family (IOW, have a connection FAR beyond a student/Sensei relationship, all out of deep mutual respect), and my accomplishments in NASKA as well as my measley MMA appearances both allow me to fetch the dollar I get for teaching.

The following paragraph is directed towards whomever the imbecile is who felt NASKA isn't "real" enough to deserve an entry, or significant enough. If you're the one who decided the entire page should be deleted, then the reference is to you. If there never WAS a NASKA page, then there needs to be one made--in fact I'd be more than happy to do the research as Sensei Joyce was the producer and promoter of the 5A tournament held at Madison Square Garden, the Empire State Nationals. She stopped promoting in 97 or 98 I believe.

Why did you delete "NASKA" as a page? Perhaps you might want to consider there might be some organization of which you've been a part which, should someone go ahead and erase it, might damage your career? Did you even think about people like "Nasty" Anderson and Caitlin Dechelle and many others who, along with me, site NASKA in references as proof of our accomplishments? NASKA is still alive and well, and the 2011 season is already well into the planning stages. So why in the world would someone delete the page?

I'm only writing you about it because you're the one who is listed as deleting it, and yet I'm guessing your British, so why in the world would YOU delete ANY page which starts off with "North American." That would be like me deleting something starting with "European" which, as an American, I know I'm not qualified to do.

Wow... the presumptuousness of some people... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.92.174.170 (talk) 17:15, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
