I.Bhardwaj, Please comment on your rationale for contesting the speedy deletion that states in the edit summary "...substantial edits by other editors" Fiddle Faddle 17:16, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Timtrent, I thought there were enough edits by other users to contest the CSD. If you want I can revert my edits to restore the CSD notice and withdraw my contest. I.Bhardwaj (talk) 17:25, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I.Bhardwaj, We are here now. AfDs must run their course. I believe you were mistaken over the substantial nature of the edits Fiddle Faddle 17:29, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Timtrent, my apologies. I.Bhardwaj (talk) 17:32, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
