Thats understandable.

Also I have started a petition for the owners of the articles to all
request that their articles are made available.

Basically all I would like are the NPOV and the non notable deletes of
the users who opt in to my petition.


I will just start with the articles that have not been deleted,
and work with the deleted contents from the existing revisions. The
data for existing articles that has been culled out should be a good
starting point. When we have a list of all the editors from a certain
POV, and they have all asked for thier deleted data then we should
have the needed material.

thanks,
