User talk:ArtAsArt/sandbox/Tim Bavington

Dear Editors,

I noticed that the page on Tim Bavington I was working on was marked for speedy deletion. I was under the assumption (obviously I was wrong) that the draft I had in my sandbox was only visible to me. I have not yet paraphrased or edited the text, I only "dropped" the relevant information and references for my own use, to collect all the materials in one place. I thought that the page will remain invisible until "publication." Do you have any suggestions on how I should proceed? Is it possible to go back to the draft I had on file and rewrite the text, paraphrasing everything so there are no copyright violations? Or should I write the whole article offline and submit it when all is clean and ready?

As you could see, I am not an experienced Wiki editor, so I hope you could give me some direction.

Sincerely,

ArtAsArt
