Project Resurrection!

This has been a special edition of Ichthus, official newsletter of WikiProject:Christianity. A full edition will come in April, stay tuned!

Restore us, O LORD God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved.

— Psalm 80:19, NRSVue

Concern regarding Draft:The Jazz Groove

Hello, History DMZ. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:The Jazz Groove, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 07:07, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, History DMZ,

You've been working on Draft:The Jazz Groove for over 2 1/2 years now. Do you think you can locate some more reliable sourcing and resubmit it to AFC again? If you moved it to your own User space, you wouldn't have to worry about it being deleted every six months because of inactivity. Just a thought. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:17, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi Liz, nice to see you around my talk page and thank you for your concern :) I have seen a few new reliable sources about JazzGroove that came about because of their main host/DJ's (Ray White) recent death. I rather use some other, non-tragedy related sources, so I'm periodically searching the web for more typical music-themed sources that may appear. Cordially, History DMZ ^{(HQ) † (wire)} 01:00, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
