April 17[edit]

15:26:46, 17 April 2016 review of submission by Surfacedetail[edit]

Hi, My draft was deleted due to a copyright problem relating to another website. I thought I had resolved this in an earlier version, as I was waiting for review on another matter. Now, the page is gone/deleted. Can you undelete it, and put it back into my surfacedetail sandbox? Otherwise, I will have to start from scratch, and that would be a LOT of lost work. Thank you, Surfacedetail Surfacedetail (talk) 15:26, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Surfacdetail: Welcome to the Help desk. I don't have access to the draft's text, but it appears that Draft:Robert Heindel was deleted on 14 April 2016 due to copyright violations. Unfortunately, restoring the draft in your sandbox would reintroduce those same copyright violations into Wikipedia, and so that cannot be done. You could try requesting on the talk page of User:RHaworth, the deleting administrator, that he email you a copy of the text. While it would be at his discretion, I think that is probably the best course of action available to you. If he emails you the text, please rephrase it in your own words before posting any of it on Wikipedia. You may find this essay helpful when it comes to paraphrasing content from existing sources. Thanks, /wiae /tlk 16:11, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am amending my text under Numerology as Chakras but it is getting deleted repeatedly.

no Declined Your additions to Numerology keep getting removed because they cite no sources, so they are not verifiable and appear to be original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Trying to create a new article with the same unsupported content will not work. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:39, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I am writing to request that my page on Roberta L. Raymond be reevaluated. I have updated the citations so that they conform to wikipedia style, have added citations, have added content, and have added a number of external links. Under the circumstances, I request the page no longer be designated an "orphan." Thank you. ˜˜˜˜ Lady Boswell (talk) 21:11, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lady Boswell. An article is an orphan when no other Wikipedia page links to it. You've added links from Oak Park and River Forest High School and Oak Park Regional Housing Center, so Roberta L. Raymond is no longer an orphan. You are free to remove the {{orphan}} maintenance template yourself; no automated process or "expert" removes it. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:14, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
