Dear Redzfan14,

Some while ago you wrote an article on Henry Joseph Grimmelsman which was incorrectly deleted.

I appreciate its taken us a while to spot this mistake, but thanks for writing your article on Henry Joseph Grimmelsman. I've now restored it and redirected it to Henry Joseph Grimmelsmann. Clearly we need to merge these two articles when we've decided which was his preferred spelling of his surname, but your contributions have been undeleted so they can be incorporated in the merged article.

I'm really sorry that you had such a bad experience with Wikipedia, and I can understand why you haven't edited since. Clearly things went badly wrong in the way we handled your article and as a Wkipedia administrator I would like to apologise to you for that.

If at some stage you are willing to try us again, I can assure you that your experience is neither what we want new contributors to have nor in my experience typical of what new contributors have.

(I've also emailed this to you, but I'm copying it here in case you have abandoned that Email account but still occasionally look here)  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers 10:21, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
