Flame retardant moved back to main space

Hi, moving an article such as Flame retardant to draft space in order to move your new user space draft article isn't really the best way to wholesale rewrite an established article. Partly because you largely copied the existing article and edited int your space, which is fine, but you should re-apply your edits in the main article to help preserve attribution and history of the existing article I've moved it back. Consider discussion on the talk page, doing it in smaller chunks, etc. Thanks! Skynxnex (talk) 15:49, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Chemlearn11,

Flame retardant is a 19 year old article that has existed on Wikipedia and been edited since 2004. You are a new editor with 15 edits. It is not proper for you to replace a longstanding article with your new version when you are such an inexperienced editor. Please do not act like this in the future. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!
