Wrongful conviction of Mauhu Fawcett

Hi JBW

As far as I can tell, you deleted my draft article with the above title. I spent hours and hours working on this. I am happy to revise the parts that you believe breach copywrite. Can you post a copy of the article to my sandbox - or post it somewhere so that I can work on it please. Clooless (talk) 07:16, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Clooless: I can email a copy of what you wrote if you enable email access. To do that, click on the "preferences" link right at the top of the page, and you will find a link for adding an email address. When you have done that, let me know, and I'll send the draft to you. I can't post it anywhere on Wikipedia, as that would mean I personally would be responsible for knowingly infringing copyright.

I can tell that you must have put quite a lot of work into the deaft, and I can thoroughly understand how frustrating it must be to see all that work deleted, but unfortunately it was so unambiguously copied from the stated web site that it just can't be accepted as an article. There was a substantial amount of text which was word for word the same, and more which was somewhat rewritten but still close enough to the original to make it clear that it was essentially a modified copy of that original. You really have to write your own text from scratch, rather than taking an existing account and making changes to it.

I wish you well with rewriting the draft. JBW (talk) 08:58, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Clooless (talk) 19:18, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have posted a reply to your second deletion of the draft. Clooless (talk) 20:06, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have a message on my Talkpage waiting for your response. Clooless (talk) 05:44, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Something to keep an eye on

Hi, JB. Championship Off-Road Racing apparently reorganized this year but the anonymous editor who updated the article went about it the wrong way. Seems to me that if this new incarnation is notable, it should be added as its own article rather than replacing the existing one. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 16:43, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warrior GOG88

Giving you a heads-up regarding GOG88, who hardly ever does anything other than remove content without explanation. Now they're having an edit war at the vandalism noticeboard. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 16:06, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

CSD G12

Sorry about that, I pasted from my cache, but it was still the prior Review. I redid it. S Philbrick (Talk) 19:18, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Sphilbrick: Easily done

Could be, but there isn't enough evidence to go on. JBW (talk) 21:40, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

I tried writing to the administrator and was wondering if you could llease help me recapture the draft that was deleted from my sandbox. It was a lot of work and I have no other copy. If you could undelete it momentarily, or perhaps send me a copy I would appreciate it. Thanks. MichelePadua (talk) 02:10, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deji Olatunji

Hi, I see that this page is currently protected. Would you consider creating a new redirect to Deji (YouTuber)? 162 etc. (talk) 06:35, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

deletion of Deji (YouTuber)

Hi I see you deleted Deji (YouTuber) under WP:G5 however did you check if there was "substantial edits by others" by others first? As a lot of edits have been done recently due to the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Deji. Does this deletion mean the page needs to be recreated from scratch now? Paulpat99 (talk) 22:38, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Paulpat99: @162 etc.: I have started a deletion review for this at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 November 15. Please comment over there, as this may be of interest to both of you (and JBW too). DrewieStewie (talk) 22:26, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ATEQ Page Deleted

Hi, I see you deleted the Wikipedia article I made for ATEQ, I spent hours working on it, and still had to add all external sources in regard to the company. Would it be possible to understand why it got deleted, and how to be able to repost it without it being deleted?
