Contested deletion
[edit]This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic because A10 only applies to duplicate articles - the draft is not in main/article space and so this article is not a duplicate. The draft has little useful content, what is there can easily be added to the article. AusLondonder (talk) 16:50, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- A less experienced editor put a fair amount of work into that draft. It should have been moved into mainspace, then expanded. AusLondonder, as an experienced editor you should know better. Edwardx (talk) 16:54, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- That doesn't explain why you tagged the mainspace article with A10. I wasn't aware a draft was in existence, I probably should have checked but it doesn't mean you tag the mainspace article. AusLondonder (talk) 17:01, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- When a draft exists, there is a very prominent notice to that effect at the top of the page you are seeking to create. Edwardx (talk) 17:07, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Not when you click a red-link on mobile. Not sure why you feel the need to display this condescending attitude. AusLondonder (talk) 17:17, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

History merge request
[edit]The history merge request placed is completely ridiculous. I created this article and copied nothing from the draft. AusLondonder (talk) 17:38, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
