Your draft article, Draft:Michael Scheiner[edit]

Hello, Extabulis. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Michael Scheiner".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:40, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
