Your draft article, Draft:List of national parks in South Australia

 

Hello, SHB2000. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "List of national parks in South Australia".

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. If 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! 05:34, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
