RE:Tropical Storm Celia (2022) draft

IrishSurfer21: Regarding the draft you've created for Tropical Storm Celia, given the circumstances—remained at sea throughout with only one death and little documented impact associated specifically with Celia—I think that the best way to present Celia-2022 to readers is not through a separate article, but in the season article: 2022 Pacific hurricane season#Tropical Storm Celia. I think that the draft should be redirected there.(WP:NOPAGE) That said, I've a thought, if I may, given the interrelated impacts of various tropical systems in Central America, including Celia, over the past several weeks, you might consider creating an article on June 2022 Central America flooding. The flooding as a whole has certainly been impactful and seems like a worthwhile topic for an article. Take care and happy editing. Drdpw (talk) 02:02, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Reminder to check for drafts

Hey IrishSurfer21. I wanted to send a quick reminder to check for draft versions of an article when you are creating a new article. For the case of Tropical Storm Colin (2022), there was a draft that was started a few hours before you created the article (removing the redirect/creation). It was no problem this time to just redirect the draft to the mainspace, but sometimes, a draft version can contain more information than what is being created in the mainspace, which can lead to confusion between editors. Hope that makes sense as to why checking for draft versions is important. Have a good day and keep up the good editing! Elijahandskip (talk) 19:48, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

RE:User:IrishSurfer21/PTC2

IrishSurfer21/PTC2: I have reverted the redirect you created for "User:IrishSurfer21/PTC2" to the 2022 AHS article. As the pages is in "user" namespace and as "User:IrishSurfer21/PTC2" is unlikelhy to be a go-to search term for someone looking for Tropical Storm/Hurricane Bonnie (2022), it probably would be better to treat the page like a draft and request a speedy delete. If, however, the page is to be left as a redirect, please delete all content from the page first, except the #REDIRECT details of course. Cheers. Drdpw (talk) 22:52, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

This page cannot be deleted as per Wikipedia's copyright attribution policies as HurricaneEdgar copied information from this page to Tropical Storm Bonnie's main article. Thus, why I could only redirect it instead of requesting it for deletion.IrishSurfer21 (talk) 23:23, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Munch's Make Believe Band

Hello, IrishSurfer21. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Munch's Make Believe Band".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If 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!} 00:14, 10 December 2022 (UTC)
