Hi @Ascjames, where did you previously save the book?

Ascjames (talkcontribs)

Thanks Johan -

I saved the book in Wikipedia. I also, fortunately, downloaded most of the pages to this computer.

Sometimes, but not always, there is a banner near the top of the page that asks "add this page to your book?" I add the page and the counter rises by one to show how many pages are in my book, In this case, the book, titled something like "FRENETTER - (a tale of Mississippi), disappeared after I added 10 or more pages.. I saved it here in Wikipedia. I saved and had a similar titled book a few years ago. This one is new..

do you have a link or the page name you can give? We need to know which book we are looking for. Steelpillow (talk) 11:12, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

I am finding it hard to find any record. Without the exact page name I cannot check if it has been deleted. Also, there has never been a user called Ascjames on the English Wikipedia. Do you have another user name there, or are you editing a different language Wikipedia? Steelpillow (talk) 19:40, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Hello Steelpillow.

I'm going to try harder to find the name I used before.

Thanks for your care.

If you can tell us which language Wikipedia it was and what your user name there is, we can search for it and someone may be able to retrieve it. Steelpillow (talk) 08:48, 26 October 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. I think I have saved all the articles elsewhere.

Let's stop searching, for now. I don't remember which name I signed in under.

I've started a new book under Ascjames.

Your work is greatly app-reciated by me.

James
