By any chance do you have any contacts who might be able to get us the full revision histories of deleted articles? Trying to reconstruct a history from what little is preserved in the Internet Archive and using the [[:Template:Lost Edit|<nowiki>{{Lost Edit}}</nowiki>]] tag is impressively time consuming. Two articles that I know we need this for are [[Carol Moore]] and [[Gregory Creswell]]. The latter of which we don't even have a list of all Wikipedia edits for. -- [[User:Strangelv|Strangelv]] ([[User talk:Strangelv|talk]]) 18:47, 13 March 2019 (CDT) | By any chance do you have any contacts who might be able to get us the full revision histories of deleted articles?

:*I just contact the admin who deleted it or any admin to ask for the history of the article. They can give an .xml file.

==Category Comments== | |||
Thanks for putting in categories on your new entries!!! Couple of comments --- I note you put down <nowiki> [[Category: New York Candidates for New York Attorney General]]</nowiki> and similar. It is actually <nowiki>[[Category: New York Candidates for Attorney General]]</nowiki> - no need to repeat the state. The format is <nowiki>[[Category: STATE NAME Candidates for OFFICE NAME]]</nowiki>. Also we put in a generic entry so for the above, you would put in the New York specific category, but also put in <nowiki>[[Category: Candidates for Attorney General]]</nowiki>. Does that make sense? So for any candidate you would have: | |||
<nowiki> | |||
[[Category: Candidates from the DECADE]] | |||
[[Category: STATE NAME Candidates for OFFICE NAME]] | |||
[[Category: Candidates for OFFICE NAME]] | |||
</nowiki> | |||
Let me know if you need any clarification. [[User:CarynAnnHarlos|CarynAnnHarlos]] ([[User talk:CarynAnnHarlos|talk]]) 01:43, 31 July 2019 (CDT) | |||
