January 2023: Lost draft?

edit

@BlueChippy, lost drafts are not always lost, even if not properly saved/"published" in Wikipedia. As long as the browser window you were using has not been closed, the browser's "back" button can be used to get to the draft you thought you lost. I hope this is an option for you and that it retrieves your work.-- Quisqualis (talk) 23:53, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Another common error by new editors is to copy copyright protected content into one's sandbox or a draft, intending to paraphrase it befor publishing. Because "Publish changes" saves content to a place that can be seen by others - even if not found by an internal or external search - such pasting intended as temporary is forbidden.

Thanks for the response! Sadly, I did close the page and had to restart. Lots of learning! The article has now been submitted for review. BlueChippy (talk) 01:58, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
