Hi! Is there a way to retrieve a deleted article? I saved it my email but it was accidentally deleted. I wanted to work on it so I don't have to spend hours on it. Sorry but thanks if you can help!

- There are ways to undelete a page, but Wikipedia takes copyright infringement very seriously. As this was the reason your page was deleted, it is highly unlikely it will be undeleted. I suggest that you use the ]

- This is the second time now, please take in consideration even the minimal parts of copyvio; if it's still even too closely paraphrased, it's best to not include it. Any further attempts may lead to having the article locked. SwisterTwister talk 05:48, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
Hi again! So I now see the problem. I have included links from Wikipedia articles...my apologies for that! And now I'm now working to de-orphan the article. I've tried to rewrite it to reduce the copyright issues and so far so good but I can't change some of the titles since that's his titles (past and present). Please advise! Thanks.
After chatting with an editor in the Wikipedia Chat Page, I have de-orphaned the article by adding a redirect. I read in a Wikipedia article that a redirect can help de-orphan an article if other Wiki articles don't mention the title. I look forward to any action. Thanks!
File permission problem with File:Irving Paul Formal.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Irving Paul Formal.jpg, which you've attributed to Milken Institute. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

No conflict of interest and am receiving no compensation...I wish :-)
- A definite conflict of interest exists. In remarks on this page that you later deleted - see here - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Informsac&direction=prev&oldid=732585766 - you admitted to being employed by the subject of the article. Exemplo347 (talk) 17:41, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
I only deleted as it didn't add to the conversation. If you notice (since I now that edited comments are saved) I delete and add if I feel the comment is missing something or needs something. This is a learning process (rewriting pieces)so thanks for the opportunity. I look forward to your comments/ future action.
Please disclose your COI
Full disclosure - I write for publications as a volunteer since the purpose is to build my portfolio. I haven't written for Irving but he saw one of my pieces.
You edits show that you are related to Paul H. Irving in some way. I strongly suggest that you disclose your connection. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 05:05, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
