[edit] Undelete Ellis Lawson Banister

Posted this in User_talk:Cactus.man:

Hello there -- I created an article a while back, and it has vanished. Could you assist me with restoring it to my personal user space, somewhere? The article is Ellis Lawson Banister. Thanks!

Hi, I have restored the article to your userspace at User:Forteanajones/Banister. Please remember that recreation of deleted content is a valid reason for speedy deletion. Please develop the article before reposting or, alternatively, you could list it at deletion review. Good luck either way. --Cactus.man ✍ 07:25, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Just to clarify, I assume such an article can remain indefinitely in personal user space? -FJ | hello 9/26/2006 12:42 PM PST

No, it should be there for you to develop for eventual use as a Wikipedia article. Please see this section on deletion review. Specifically:

Keeping deleted content in your userspace if you have no immediate intention of using it for encyclopaedic purposes is frowned on, as Wikipedia is not a free web host. If kept too long, the page may be nominated for deletion at miscellany for deletion.

I hope that helps. --Cactus.man ✍ 07:05, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
