AfC notification: Draft:Lancaster Literacy Research Centre has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Lancaster Literacy Research Centre. Thanks! Robert McClenon (talk) 15:41, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Robert, thanks for your comment last month. I tried to link my draft page to the Divisions of Lancaster University but it got deleted. I understand that Wikipedia doesn't want this article in its current form but I would like to use all the work I put into it elsewhere. Is it possible please for me to have access to the draft text again in my sandbox? I would appreciate this. Mary Swannpool (talk) 08:03, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lancaster Literacy Research Centre (March 28)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Divisions of Lancaster University. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Lancaster Literacy Research Centre and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Lancaster Literacy Research Centre, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and will be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Swannpool! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Robert McClenon (talk) 17:34, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Robert - please see my earlier comment. I would like access to my draft text for the page so I can use it elsewhere Swannpool (talk) 08:04, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Literacy Research Centre, Lancaster University

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Literacy Research Centre, Lancaster University, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Please could you retrieve my deleted material so that I can develop it and use elaswhere if not of interest to Wikipedia. I put a lot of work into this so am disappointed that the draft isn't accessible anymore. I hope this reaches Blythwood - I cant work out how to contact you elsewhere! Thank you, Mary Swannpool (talk) 08:07, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
