User talk:Robert Pries

Robert Pries, you are invited to the Teahouse!
I feels totally incompetent! I worked for about 8 hours on a new page for The American Iris Society gathering references and information. I noticed it appeared as a re link from a number of other topics I visited and thought I could add the article that did not exist. I thought I was doing good in my sandbox and thought I would submit a short version that could be added to later. I submitted it for review then thought I should add a link to an abbreviation I used KAVB. I found that the wikilink for it spells out the entire Dutch name. Not being one to remember Dutch I copied it and pasted it in in parenthesis and made it a link. Then my whole draft disappeared And apparently I committed a translocation whatever that is and everything was lost except a ReDirect ?? What should I do. I am about to give up. Bob.
