Yesterday, I joined and wrote a draft of an article (with Article Wizard) on William A. McNamara of Quarryhill Botanical Garden. I hit Publish. I wanted to refine it today and I can't find it anywhere. What did I not do correctly? Thanks so much. Please help me with...

 * Hey! It looks like, for some reason, the article didn't save. Unfortunately, unless you have an offline copy, the page didn't save. For reference, you need to click on the 2 separate "publish changes"; not just the first one in the top right, but the one in the resulting pop up box too. Mdann52 (talk) 21:05, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Maybe there was a CAPTCHA that you overlooked when you tried to publish the draft? That, unfortunately, is a somewhat common problem that may cause publishing to go wrong. Huon (talk) 21:08, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
