I appreciate the response. Seems like the changes will be a big positive step forward; I just re-wrote what I lost in my article that was submitting; between deleting and re-writing I decided on the latter FYI. 

I've only actually starting writing again for the first time in almost 2 yrs; what is the current wait time before review/publishing? 24 hrs? Longer? Thanks. Best, CVC

Ok so no backups. Gotcha. How do I see status of pending articles? It's been a while since I've written a new one.
