Your draft article, Draft:Christine Lemmer-Webber
Hello, Legoktm. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Christine Lemmer-Webber".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 18:19, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, Legoktm,
- Always feels strange to post these on the User talk pages of longtime editors. Of course, you can restore this draft any time you like if you want to continue to work on it. All the best in 2024! Liz Read! Talk! 18:21, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

TFA Protector Bot: +semi-protection please
Hi Legoktm, would you mind adding semi-protection to TFA Protector Bot per Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 186 § RfC: Automatically semi-protect Today's Featured Article? Thank you very much in advance and happy holidays! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:49, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- @ToBeFree: huh? It's been doing that for months now (example). Legoktm (talk) 23:54, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

TFA Protector Bot
Hi Legoktm :) I may be missing something, but I noticed that TFA Protector Bot may have malfunctioned slightly - Treat Myself got move-protected on 25 Jan, but the bot didn't also apply semi-protection prior to its inclusion on the Main Page today (31 Jan).
