User talk:Albertwilliams

You started an article on Brian Mizer. An administrator deleted it. There are conditions where they are allowed to do that.

My understanding of the deletion policies is that, in general, deletion is not supposed to be based on the current condition of the article, but rather on the merits, or lack thereof, of covering that topic. There is no doubt in my mind that Mizer merits inclusion here.

The deletion policies recommend that an article creator get a courtesy note, informing them that the article has been deleted. But the courtesy note is not strictly required. Personally, I think that courtesy note should be required. And I am sorry you didn't get one.

I requested the article be restored, but to "user space", where contributors are allowed to work on drafts of articles that may not be ready. It is currently at User:Geo Swan/review/Brian Mizer 1. I have added to it. Fell free to add to it yourself.

Eventually I would like to see it restored to article space.
