This article was deleted under a process called WP:Proposed deletion or PROD. As that is intended for uncontroversial deletions, any article deleted by PROD is automatically restored on request. However, I will notify user Yworo (talk), who proposed it, and s/he may choose to nominate it under another process, WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days, to which you would be welcome to contribute, though you should declare your ineterest, i.e. that you are the subject of the article.

I must tell you that writing about yourself or editing your own article is controversial on Wikipedia, for reasons explained at WP:Autobiography and WP:Conflict of interest. Wikipedia is extremely sensitive to being used for any kind of promotion. Best practice, described at WP:BESTCOI, is to make yourself only the most uncontroversial edits such as corrections of fact; anything else should be suggested on the article talk page, declaring your interest, and let uninvolved editors decide.

If you can provide up-to-date references, that would help - the WP:Verifiability policy requires that "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source", and the notability requirement is for references showing showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

There is advice at WP:Biographies of living persons/Help for subjects of Wikipedia articles.
