I first registered this account - my first - April 20, 2007. Since then, I've gotten involved pretty deeply in AfD work. I see it as a chance to triage articles that are flawed, but may yet have potential.
If you need access to a Wikipedia article that has been deleted, ask me. If it's not a copyright violation, libel, or personal information, and has not been deleted as a suspected biographies of living persons violation, I will userfy the article for you.
Note that using the text to recreate any deleted article may automatically qualify them for copies of previously deleted content that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion because Wikipedia is not a free web host. We have a list of alternative sites which may be used to host your content.
I maintain a sock account AVPW primarily for use on public networks. In the event of a compromised account, I specifically request any administrator to honor a request from AVPW to block this account, and absolve you in advance of any repercussions. To do list:

Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Act 2024Reason: The article has been the subject of persistent vandalism which editors have had to remove. It is likely, given that the Act has just passed, and given the nature of the Act which is to remove asylum seekers from the United Kingdom to Rwanda, it will persist in being the victim of vandalism in the near future. I would propose an interim WP:SILVERLOCK be imposed. I will also add that, as can be seen from the history page, some of the comments appear to be racist, inflammatory and scurrilous. It is sad people hold these views. UnicornSherbert (talk ) 21:29, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Draft:William BishopReason: Create-protecting the generic form of this name in draft space is not needed, and may interfere with submission of a draft for someone other than the current subject. Multiple forms of the name are already create-protected in article space, and some in draft space also.

Hi and thanks for looking. I'do love to volunteer in patrolling recent changes as well as other aspect of vandalism. My previous request was followed by my bad in lacking civility over IPs, which Dan Cherek advised me. For atleast close/a month, I've taken the advice and sometimes instead of warning, I write messages to the editor in question. I'm not perfect but will do my best in patrolling Special:RecentChanges. I have maintained at least in a good capability, a track record of consistently notifying editors after reverting. Thanks for considering me also.— Safari ScribeEdits!
