I am the creator, and before the move to mainspace, I was the sole editor. Check the edit history So G6 is fair. Kailash29792 (talk) 12:19, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

G6 does not apply, read WP:RDRAFT. Sam Sailor 12:21, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
My bad. It's WP:G7 which says "For redirects created as a result of a page move, the mover must also have been the only substantive contributor to the pages before the move". May I go again? Kailash29792 (talk) 05:22, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
WP:RDRAFT is clear:
Redirects that are a result of page moves from the draft namespace to the main namespace should be retained.[note 1]
I can understand if RDRAFT may have passed under the radar, but I don't think the wording of G7 somehow cancels out RDRAFT. Sam Sailor 17:31, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

Notes

  1. ^ It was determined that the community consensus in this RfC regarding draft namespace redirects amounted to "there is a clear consensus against deletion of draft namespace redirects. There is a rough consensus against the alternative proposal to delete draft namespace redirects after six months."

A Grammar of Vai

Hello! The A Grammar of Vai article had existed but was redirected to Vai language, which is why the existing book cover image was deleted. I restored it after citing some book reviews examining the book in detail. I don't know which book cover image it was, but Im hoping to have it restored.
