Hi, I want to create an article about American writer Ryan Hampton. I've checked here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Your_first_article) before trying to do smth and there is already the same name page. Also I've checked a deletion log and there were two Ryan Hampton pages deleted in 2006 and 2010, but they were about the Nascar driver, whose page exists now. Can somebody please tell me how to proceed? Should I create a draft with the same name?

- Hi Little Rabbiton, as Ryan Hampton exists I would create a Draft as Ryan Hampton (writer). If accepted a disambiguation page, etc could be created. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 16:37, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
- Hi KylieTastic, I just opened "creating a new page" with "Rayn Hampton (writer)" and there is a permission error: The page title or edit you have tried to create has been restricted to administrators at this time. It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists, which is usually used to prevent vandalism. Should I contact administrators to ask for the reason? Little Rabbiton (talk) 17:10, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Little Rabbiton, ah yes Rayn Hampton (writer) is restricted apparently due to past behaviour by one or more editors. You should create a Draft first via Wikipedia:Articles for creation (Wikipedia:Article_wizard then once its accepted as OK an administrator can be asked to move into the main article space.
