Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion/Abandoned pages

Two kinds of page are deleted if they have not been edited in six months: draftspace pages and AfC submissions (deleted under CSD G13) and user subpages of users who have made few or no edits outside userspace (CSD U6). These abandoned pages are deleted because they are not being maintained, but can be restored upon request.

If you wish to retrieve a G13- or U6-deleted page because you still intend to work on it, you can request it to be restored by clicking the blue button below:

Instructions for filing a REFUND request manually

If you are unable to make your request through the "Request draft undeletion" button above, you can follow this manual procedure:

1. Visit the page where it previously existed. The page should contain a red box stating "A page with this title has previously been moved or deleted", followed by the reason for deletion. The title may also be found in deletion notifications on the talk page of the creator.
2. Highlight the exact title of the page (something like "Draft:Foo bar") and copy it.
3. Click this link and paste the page title into the indicated space on the top line.
4. Click "Publish changes".
