Madagascar Oil
Hi, Northamerica1000. You have done an excellent work on improving articles to rescue them from deletion. Maybe you are interested to help with Madagascar Oil which articles is not in the good shape but which by my understanding deserves its own article in Wikipedia.

 * I have added some sources to the article, and upon consideration, made a comment at the AfD discussion. North America1000 18:35, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Asking for revert of deletion of contents for Kristin Leachman page
Hi Northamerica1000,

Per the copyright requirements the page was granted by Kristin Leachman to copy the word-for-word usage for use on Wikipedia directly from her site.

There is a copyright notice at the bottom of the http://kristinleachman.com/info/ page that states "Copyright Information: Please contact us for authorization of the use of content on the site. Current copyright release only authorizes word-for-word distribution to Wikipedia for the contents found within this page." allowing the release and use of all of the information contained for the use and distribution to Wikipedia.

Update 12/7 1:20PM PST: We have asked Kristin update the verbiage to include the open use for wikipedia and other for the content found on the http://kristinleachman.com/info/ page. The new copyright verbiage includes "Copyright Information: Copyright release for this page authorizes word-for-word distribution of the contents as long as citation and link back to this content has been provided within usage." allowing use on wikipedia and other locations with citation of usage.

Thank you for your help, Tylerdigital (talk) 20:52, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
 * ✅ The article has been restored. Note that this restoration has not negated the rationale for article deletion at Articles for deletion/Kristin Leachman, though. North America1000 15:27, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

Guitarra morisca
Hello Mr. Northamerica1000.

Could you link guitarra morisca (English wiki) to [] (Spanish wiki), since this instrument is a mandora from the Medieval period, but the Non-Medieval mandora is linked to Spanish article "guitarra morsica"?
