Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. I deleted your article because
 * Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia to record existing facts, not to provide a platform for original research
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, and websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance. Although the British newspaper archives are an acceptable source, you would need to provide more detail than that, listing the specific issues and article you have used. Personal interviews are not acceptable unless the results have been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

The deletion is as permanent as it gets here, in that the text can only be viewed or restored by admins. If you are worried about your donation of the text losing your copyright, since the article has been deleted that won't apply
