Atlantic306 (talk) 21:32, 1 February 2023 (UTC)Creating Talk:Hume-Bennett Lumber Company/GA1
editHi -- I see you created Talk:Hume-Bennett Lumber Company/GA1, and I assume that was because you wanted to nominate it for a GA review? That page is for the reviewer to use, so the nominator (i.e. you) shouldn't create it. I've deleted it -- if/when the article gets reviewed, the reviewer will create it. However, you didn't actually nominate the article -- the instructions are at WP:GAN/I; if you still would like to see it reviewed, take a look at those instructions and if you run into any problems, let me know.
