Why do you keep undoing my fixes? (1 & 2) The DISPLAYTITLE directive had no effect and so I removed it. --bdijkstra (talk) 06:45, 15 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi Bdijkstra, The reason I reverted to its previous state because, I noticed two times the category list removed from the article page. But, would you happen to know why the category list was removed? Thanks Bdijkstra, — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joedav (talkcontribs) 01:38, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Looking at the article's revision history, the category list was never removed. Perhaps you were viewing the mobile version of the page? --bdijkstra (talk) 02:13, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

I might, well thank you so much for the clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joedav (talkcontribs) 03:51, 22 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Rebecca Brown Yoder

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

A tag has been placed on Rebecca Brown Yoder requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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.

I got your message. Contrary to what you say, it's obvious that Rebecca Brown Yoder is the same person as Rebecca Brown (missionary). If you were able to see the latter article (which you can't, because only administrators can see deleted pages), you would know this. If you want to recreate the article, I recommend you do so in draft space (see Wikipedia:Articles for Creation) and submit for review by more experienced editors.
