American Gymnosophical Association[edit]
A {{prod}} template has been added to the article American Gymnosophical Association, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised.

Hello. Nice work on adding that youth hostel photo to the Hunt piece, on which I've worked. I had seen that building before when it was abandoned years ago and wondered about it.
