The discussion was brief, but looking at the deleted article, I agree that it was extremely light and did not establish notability. From this point, a few options are available. 1) you can initiate a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review" title="Wikipedia:Deletion review">deletion review</a>, but based on the content of the deleted article, I doubt that the outcome will be different. or 2) you can start a draft article, and I can see that you have started one at <a href="/wiki/Draft:Volvexzshawa" class="mw-redirect" title="Draft:Volvexzshawa">Draft:Volvexzshawa</a>, and your application to publish it has been declined recently. If I may offer insight and recommendation, I can understand why the publication of the draft was declined. Content was minimal and the references provided were not linked to statements in the article. That being said, the subject topic may be notable and worthy of an article.
