Your draft article, User:Andrewkathie/sandbox


Hello, Andrewkathie. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "sandbox".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗ plicit  23:36, 28 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @Explicit Thank you, xplicit. I am afraid it has not been happy editing at all so far. I struggled to produce the first draft in accordance with the many Wikipedia rules and procedures. Then, when I thought I had succeeded and tried to publish it, it was immediately blocked, for reasons obscure to me. It has lingered in the sandbox ever since.
 * I am sure there are many good reasons why Wikipedia has developed the way it has, and that it works fine for the initiated. But for the novice it is just frustrating and dispiriting. I don't think I'll bother trying to take my entry any further.
