Why a new article for an alias of a person that already has an article?
Regarding your article at Draft:White Silas, why would you write a separate article for a person (Ethel Cain) that already has an article written about them? And the alias White Silas is already noted in that article. Maybe what you want to suggest is a name change of the original article. signed, Willondon (talk) 16:27, 29 May 2023 (UTC)


 * This was done to avoid the deletion of information relating to earlier projects from the Ethel Cain Wikipedia page AnOldPoet (talk) 16:36, 29 May 2023 (UTC)


 * A new article probably isn't the best solution. It won't in itself stop deletions on the Ethel Cain article. Now that you have an account, you can put Ethel Cain on your watch list to monitor any changes. Reading the talk page there, it seems the issues you have have been resolved. And the article seems to be restored to mentioning White Silas as well as listing published works under that name. So maybe just trust "the system". I have the article on my watch list for another three months. If an article has fewer than 30 watchers, Wikipedia doesn't report the exact number, so we can't tell how many are watching. Anyway, that seems to be the best way to prevent editors with a conflict of interest deleting material that should be there. My two cents.  signed, Willondon (talk)  16:56, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, a redirect page for White Silas would serve readers who are searching for an article titled White Silas, by automatically providing the Ethel Cain article.  signed, Willondon (talk)  16:58, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
