Regarding your revert
- the IP is very clearly banned sockmaster evading their block(s). -- Begoon 01:30, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
 * - I'm prepared to believe it, but you're going to have to give me more evidence than that, and that even if that was true that WP:DENY and rolling back their edits is the correct decision. I'm guessing you came to that conclusion based on the Arthur Humberstone page? The page I rolled back has never been vandalised in the past; the edits made on typography topics (I'm focusing on those since I know most about them) don't seem to be vandalism (they aren't great-there's no sourcing-but I can't see any errors, and one thing they added reminded me that it could do with an expansion); the decision to redirect the Noddy book is I think a legitimate decision since it's a two-sentence article, and the IP has yet to be been blocked. I'm a strong advocate myself of aggressive blocking of IPs used by editors that add hard-to-spot misinformation, but I'm not sure that this is warranted here.

 * I'm very familiar with that user and their many socks, and the intersection of topics edited, even in such a small number of edits is absolutely unmistakable. That said, if you want to take responsibility for the edit(s) and reinstate then that is your right and you are free to do so. Thanks. -- Begoon 01:53, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
 * -OK. I don't think they're fantastic (no sources) but I think they can stay. You may want to investigate the activities of user Tagzhoophe, who seems to have started where that IP left off, and is not responding to a message that they need to put in sources.

 * I already flagged the IP and Tagzhoophe at Sockpuppet investigations/Banana19208. Thanks. -- Begoon 02:57, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Retrieve a deleted draft page: Lancaster Literacy Research Centre
Dear Blythwood, I recently put up a page with this title which was deleted. I am disappointed but I accept this decision. I was upset to find that the draft of the page had disappeared from my Sandbox though as it took a lot of work to create it and I can use this text and all the references elsewhere. Please can you help me retrieve the draft which I will then remove. Thank you! Mary/ Swannpool Swannpool (talk) 08:11, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi,, yes, that's something you can get! File a request at WP:REFUND and an admin will be happy to e-mail the text to you. Blythwood (talk) 08:27, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
