Welcome!

HEY there!! most of the next two sections is form message material (with some corrections edits I made b/c I didn't think to prescreen it). If you're new to WP it's worth a read but I left a more specific message at the next "HEY there!!" down below. Cheers. --N8_wilson 20:18, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Drahnreb, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Anti-War Committee Of Russia, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and was already created as an article, so you're draft may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Your contributed article, Draft:Anti-War Committee Of Russia

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Draft:Anti-War Committee Of Russia. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Anti-War Committee of Russia. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Anti-War Committee of Russia. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.

HEY there!! That's a form message above explaining some things in case you're not familiar. It looks like you did use the articles for creation (AfC) process though and that makes this kind of a weird case. I think there were two duplicate drafts in the "Draft:" namespace for a while that differed only in the capitalization of the word "of"/"Of". It just happens that the other draft got developed a little faster and moved into the article namespace (completely bypassing AfC) while the one you created was still waiting on review. Since AfC can get pretty backlogged, I just tagged the "speedy deletion" to go ahead and pull this out of the queue there. In a way, it means the draft article you started did become an article -just under a slightly different spelling. So thanks! and hopefully this makes more sense now. --N8_wilson 19:57, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for the explanation. When I created the article, this subject wasn't covered yet and I didn't see any pending article either. I'm glad that there is an article now and that it didn't take months to come through. :) --Drahnreb (talk) 21:19, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

For sure! Hope you'll keep contributing to WP. I'm not sure how new you are here but feel free to WP:PING me if I can help. Again -thanks and apologies for any confusion. --N8_wilson 21:28, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
