I deleted it precisely for the reasons listed at the top of this page -- "it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location." Cheers Dina 20:16, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

I think you are misunderstanding the purpose of Wikipedia articles. They are to describe things that already exist and are already notable. They are not to promote new things in the hopes that, because of the article, those things will become notable. There are many venues that both allow and encourage people like yourself to promote their work. Here at Wikipedia, when it comes to web comics, it is only those that have a large following, or are regarded as influential in some way, in short, the really important ones that get articles. Because of this, and the fact that there are so many web comics, with new ones being created each day, it is simply inevitable that only a small fraction of them will ever have articles on Wikipedia. The internet is a big place and everyone can have a slice of it to display their work. However, there is no need for Wikipedia articles to duplicate or describe every single thing available on the internet. See Wikipedia:Notability (web) for more information.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Ratyork7.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Ratyork7.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 11:49, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
