You added paragraphs of content to three articles without at the same time adding references to confirm the new content. For this reason, those changes were reverted (reversed). The content can be seen and rescued from View history. If you have references to support the deleted content, you can copy that content into your Sandbox, add properly formatted references there, then return the content and references to the articles. Wikipedia requires reliable source references. Learn more about that at [[WP:42]]. The same applies to your intent to create and submit a draft about IB Howe.

You added paragraphs of content to three articles without at the same time adding references to confirm the new content. For this reason, those changes were reverted (reversed). The content can be seen and rescued from View history. If you have references to support the deleted content, you can copy that content into your Sandbox, add properly formatted references there, then return the content and references to the articles. Wikipedia requires reliable source references. Learn more about that at WP:42. The same applies to your intent to create and submit a draft about IB Howe.
