About deleted articles
There are three processes under which mainspace articles are deleted: 1) speedy deletion; 2) proposed deletion (prod) and 3) Articles for deletion (AfD). For more information, see WP:Why was my page deleted? To find out why the particular article you posted was deleted, go to the deletion log and type into the search field marked "title," the exact name of the article, mindful of the original capitalization, spelling and spacing. The deletion log entry will show when the article was deleted, by which administrator, and typically contain a deletion summary listing the reason for deletion. If you wish to contest this deletion, please contact the administrator first on their talk page and, depending on the circumstances, politely explain why you think the article should be restored, or why a copy should be provided to you so you can address the reason for deletion before reposting the article. If this is not fruitful, you have the option of listing the article at WP:Deletion review, but it will probably only be restored if the deletion was clearly improper.

Twinkle now supports logging your XfD nominations
editMuch like CSD and PROD, you can now log any XfD nominations you make with Twinkle. It's off by default, you can enable it in your Twinkle preferences. More at WT:TW. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 18:13, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

- Sorry, Redrose64, could you clarify what you mean? ~ Amory (u • t • c) 18:16, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
- The fact that you fixed the problem link shows that you do know what I meant. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:20, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

Templates for new days' logs
editFWIW I made {{AfD log}}, {{TfD log}}, {{CfD log}}, and {{RfD log}} to create the log page for a new day; previously, only {{FfD log}} existed. These are reliably handled by bots, but figured it'd be good to have backups. They should have fidelity to the current setup. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 12:55, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
