Request help to create BLP page

Hi Anarchyte, I am David, a volunteer from India who is trying to create pages for all sitting MLAs in India for the 29+ states. Our last state is Gujarat and I found that one MLA page Mukesh Patel is protected after a sanction some years ago. Since then he is elected as an MLA. Kindly see if I may be permitted to create a page for him. I have no Conflict Of Interest as I create pages for all party MLAs of all states... thanks and regards, Davidindia (talk) 16:15, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Davidindia. I have unprotected the page. I note that Mukeshbhai Patel already exists. Are these different people with similar names, or the same person? Anarchyte (talk) 09:03, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. The one you mentioned is another MLA from a different constituency, Olpad, also created by a banned user, but fortunately, the MLA got elected again in 2022. The One I am refering to is from #25 Mahesana constituency. So I may permitted to do it. Still there are a plenty of MLAs with no pages, so no hurry. I can finish the others first. I was going according to a particular order, and found this was locked... Thanks for responding. Much appreciated as the admin who did this is no more an Admin. Best regards!

New user, request to add deleted article to my user draft

Hi @Anarchyte! I recently joined and drafted an article, and received a message saying it would be deleted per a potential conflict of interest and I should instead draft it on my user drafts and have an editor review it. It also said I could ask you (someone on a long list) to move the deleted version of the article to my user drafts. The article is Sword Health, submit@ted yesterday. Is that something you could please help me with?

Thanks! Lmacphail (talk) 09:48, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lmacphail. You can find your version of the article here. If you click "edit", you can access the text of this older version. Please note that you should abide by WP:PROMO with all edits you make. Anarchyte (talk) 02:03, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Anarchyte! I've rewritten the text of the article and saved it in my drafts here: User:Lmacphail/sandbox/SwordHealthDraft. Can you review and provide any recommended edits prior to my submission?

Thanks! Lmacphail (talk) 11:29, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is still incredibly promotional. I would suggest rewriting it and taking out all promotional phrases (like "offering its digital therapy programs as a cost-effective alternative to in-person physical therapy"). Anarchyte (talk) 01:47, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the feedback, and apologies as this is my first time editing! I've just gone through the whole article again and tried to make everything neutrally worded. Can you take a look again please? Lmacphail (talk) 11:23, 19 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
