Questions

Hi — with regards to the M.Zaid (Vlogger) article, which you've been editing, I have a few questions if you don't mind:

It was created as a draft by an IP editor with only that one edit to their name, and less than one minute later was moved from drafts to mainspace. My question is: how did you know that draft existed?
In your edit note when moving the draft to mainspace, you said "Article for submission approved". What did you mean by that? More specifically, what 'approval' authority do you have?
In this edit, you removed the speedy deletion tag, with an edit comment saying "Removing the Deletion tag after the discussion placed on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/M.Zaid (Vlogger) and this Article is created my Wikiepdia User:Lugnuts who have created 89k+ articles"

Firstly, I cannot find an earlier AfD on this article, can you please link me to it?
Secondly, I didn't understand what Lugnuts' involvement in this affair was — could you clarify, please?

I may have more questions later, but I'd welcome your answers to these first. Thanks, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:58, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

PS: I note that you've had time to delete the speedy tag (again), but haven't got around to answering my questions. Could you? Ta muchly, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:52, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Sorry haven't replied earlier. I founded the article by clicking the random submission button and i wanna ask is there a template for that i could add to my user page so Convenient you cam literally find any draft article in any Category. Vermilim (talk) 19:01, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AGF etc

I don't know if you're still reading this, one of the many users talk pages of yours (!), but I just wanted to say that when I came across your edits, I knew immediately there was something dodgy. But WP:AGF requires us to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, so I posted a welcome message on your talk page. Then I asked questions; I didn't take things to ANI, etc. And now it turns out you were up to no good all along, and I feel a bit silly for having treated you like a bona fide editor. The take-away from which is: the more I come across people like you, the harder it becomes to abide by AGF. Cynicism gradually takes over. And that is a pity. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:05, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
