We need to discuss for the split or merge about the article for the upcoming third season of The Masked Singer Rider0101 (talk) 5:57 1 January 2020
Your submission at Articles for creation: The Masked Singer (American season 3) (2) (January 3)
Please do not submit multiple copies of drafts. It does not increase the likelihood that one of them will be accepted into article space, and annoys the reviewers. It is likely to be seen as an effort to game the system, and may result in the drafts being nominated for deletion.
You have also submitted Draft:The Masked Singer (American season 3). You were advised to discuss on the series talk page, Talk:The Masked Singer (American TV series). You posted a comment on that talk page, but have not waited for discussion. Allow time for discussion before resubmitting. If this draft or a similar draft is resubmitted tendentiously without waiting for discussion, it may be nominated for deletion, and a topic-ban may even be considered.

I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Draft:The Masked Singer (American season 3) (2). I do not think that Draft:The Masked Singer (American season 3) (2) fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because not a valid reason for speedy deletion; take it to MfD if you must.. I request that you consider not re-tagging Draft:The Masked Singer (American season 3) (2) for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page.

The Masked Singer (American season 3) Copy/Paste
Hello Rider0101, recently you copied and pasted content from Draft:The Masked Singer (American season 3) to The Masked Singer (American season 3). Unfortunately, you made a mistake I had to correct and I'm letting you know here. I had to move all the pages around and create some new redirects so that proper attribution could be observed. I advise you read up on WP:COPYWITHIN before copy and pasting content from one article to another, as it may be a copyright violation unless you provide attribution in the edit summary—which you did not. Before I moved the page, the history showed you as the main contributor. However, this would be untrue as a draft was being contributed to by users other than yourself. It's important to provide proper attribution so as to not make it look as though you wrote all the content in an article when it's not the case.
I admit I too have done it once before years ago before knowing the policy, but copying and pasting content without attribution is something really serious to me, especially when an article I am working on pretty much by myself (Super Bowl television ratings) looks like it was created by someone else, even though I originally wrote the content in another article that they then copied and used to create the article! Thanks, I hope you understand. Heartfox (talk) 19:28, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
- Yes I do, and I’m glad that we finally have an official page for the Masked Singer season 3, so thank you. Rider0101 (talk) 19:51, 23, January 2020 (UTC)
Yahoo sources
Hello there. I just wanted to say it's probably better to use the original article as opposed to republishings of original articles. In this case, the Yahoo article shouldn't be used and the original article from TVLine should be used instead. Thanks. Magitroopa (talk) 23:26, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

Re: Percentage of Coronavirus template
Sure! The percentage is computed with: perc = (current_day_cases - previous_day_cases) / previous_day_cases * 100 --RicoRico (talk) 21:12, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
