The Original Barnstar |
I congratulate you for your contributions, specially your article about Covid in Argentina. I suggest you to add a chart with the new recovered people per day, as you did for new cases and new deaths per day. Now you have only the cumulative recovered.
Thanks for you efforts. Esteban.langlois (talk) 15:21, 18 April 2020 (UTC) |
- Thank you! I appreciate it a lot. I'll work on that, thanks for the recommendation. MrE 17:44, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina into Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,

- As I performed a WP:SPLIT, I followed the guidelines from WP:PROPERSPLIT, where it indicates to "Paste into the new article with edit summary "Contents WP:SPLIT from [[Source article name]]; please see its history for attribution." and save the new article.". Also, as the page mentions, I applied the

Covid Cases in Argentina
[edit]Hi!
I noticed the numbers you publish here for covid cases in Argentina usually differ a lot from official numbers. What's your source?
Greetings, — Preceding unsigned comment added by MarianoBurgos (talk • contribs) 13:26, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hi! Firstly, I use the official data from the National Ministry of Health for the total number of cases, recoveries and deaths (nationwide).[1] With that said, I also subtract 13 confirmed cases (and recoveries) from them due to be from the Falkland Islands, which are counted as an British Overseas Territory.
- Secondly, on the templates that have the data from each Province and the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, the sources are the official reports by each district's government, that are linked in this template.
- If you have any other questions, feel free to ask, and/or contribute to the page if you want so! MrE (talk) 13:59, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
Changes to the 2019-20 schedule
[edit]Hey...
The response that we've recieved for introducing the scheduling guideline (3 weeks for fresh eps and 4 weeks for encores) has been vastly positive and i'm sure that the discussion can be closed as IMPLEMENT THE CHANGES, within a few hours. This brings me to the next points of discussion:
- Where do you wanna state this criteria on the schedule? It obviously needs to be in a place where it can be seen easily, both by editors who were a part of the discussion and also by those who weren't.
- What do you wanna do abt the Holiday specials. Except for one Making it which aired for only two weeks at each slot (http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch/making-it/listings/), all the other specials fit the criteria that we are implementing. So...do we remove making it from the schedule or let this year be and deal with the HS scenario begining with the upcoming season. I'm open to all suggestions.
Cheers mate!! TheRedDomitor (talk) 13:37, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- I was thinking of opening a proper discussion on the WP:TV talk page so everything can be put in a section within the project. I was thinking of starting it later today or during the week, but if anyone wants to start it, it can be done too. This would help other schedules such as the Canadian, for example. As for holiday specials, as I said before, unless there is no new show airing longer than three weeks like Making It they should be included in a note under the schedule of the day, but that can be debatable. For now, let's begin with the new schedule, and if there's a bigger consensus we could apply it to every schedule. Greetings! — MrE (talk) 16:29, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
I too was actually thinking the same thing. Gaining a larger consensus at Wikipedia:WikiProject Television will officially put this change on record and will help in improving both upcoming and old schedules. Feel free to start the discussion. I'll defo join in. Grazie! TheRedDomitor (talk) 16:53, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
Hey...I've initiated the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television. I've explained the change we are proposing and also linked it to our discussion on the 2019-20 schedule talk page. Feel free to modify and add anything that I may have missed out on. Cheers TheRedDomitor (talk) 07:59, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for creating it, I was very busy yesterday. Let's see how it goes there. Cheers! — MrE (talk) 16:02, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
The idea of creating an article that summarizes all the rules governing the content on schedule pages is a good one. I'd say that the discussion has been successful on both talk pages and I don't see any reason why anyone should oppose in the future too. Though, while the article is underway, I think that atleast on a temporary basis it is necessary to mention the newly forged criteria somewhere on the schedule. What do u say? TheRedDomitor (talk) 04:17, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yep, if everyone's on board let's do it. Could be included on the talk page or as hidden text at the beginning of the "Schedule" section. — MrE (talk) 07:16, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
It's already on record at the talk page but I'll also add a hidden message at the start of each day's individual table so that any editor who wasn't a part of the discussion and new editors too can know abt it. TheRedDomitor (talk) 08:23, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
Recent edits to the 2020-21 schedule
[edit]Hi...I have reverted your recent edits to the 2020-21 tv schedule as it isn't a question of fall or late fall but that of majority. Fresh episodes of all the shows will continue in the same slots as the encores. In such cases the quantity of episodes airing is primal. The ratio of encores airing (6-9) is one third that of fresh episodes that will continue in the same slot which will be atleast 22, thrice that of encores. It is for this exact same reason that when fresh episode finish airing in spring and encores succeed in summer the background color isnt changed to grey as the ratio of fresh eps to re-runs for the show on that particular slot is higher. While, whereas if the show only airs encores at a slot or comes back to the slot after a break the grey background and (R) is added, like for Young Sheldon on monday in early fall. To further understand u can look at the case of Bulletproof last spring. Even though CW aired encores of season 1 through April and May before airing season 2 in June, the whole block is white as it is the same series on the same slot with a higher ratio of fresh episodes. Sunshine1191 (talk) 17:05, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- PS: Grey background can be added for now ,only to be removed once fresh episodes premiere, which reneders it completely useless. And the (R) is present to indicate that encores are airing currently. Sunshine1191 (talk) 17:10, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hey! I changed the color since in the current fall schedule, repeats will air for a long period of time before the new seasons begin. But I understand your point on the divisions, and the grey color with the (R) later can be removed. — MrE (talk) 17:26, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Wow...this is weird. I saw your edit to the schedule and came to explain here why I had removed the grey backgrounds in the first place. But looks like Sunshine1191 (talk · contribs) beat me to the chase. As stated by Sunshine1191, when a series continues in the same slot without a break the proportion of fresh episodes to encores defines whether a gray background and (R) is added or not. And even generally so it is an unsaid understanding and what I've noticed over the years is that fresh episodes are given priority over encores as much as possible.TheRedDomitor (talk) 17:36, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- The presence of the (R) after the series is enough to indicate that the episodes currently airing are encores. So it won't be a problem. Cheers TheRedDomitor (talk) 17:42, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina
[edit]Hi. I just want to inform you that yesterday, someone was trying to change the data for Argentina in this template (see this and this) even if the Ministry of Health has not yet published any report since December 23. I do not know where she got those figures. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 00:50, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hi. Thanks for letting me know. Yes, there were not any reports on Dec 24–25 by the national Ministry of Health due to Christmas holiday, although most of the provinces published their own daily reports as usual (the sum of data from the provinces is not equivalent to that reported daily by the national Ministry of Health). So, any information to the no. of total cases, deaths, recoveries and/or critical cases is not accurate whatsoever. Be aware that the same will happen on Dec 31–Jan 1. — MrE (talk) 00:56, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hi again. Just dropping by to inform you again that the same person is updating the data for Argentina on a daily basis for a few weeks now. I have not seen any new problem yet even if I am not checking if the subtractions are always correct, but she is referring to the Falkland Islands as the Malvinas Islands. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 09:36, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know. As you may know, I do not update that template as I'm mostly focused on the main pages of Argentina and the Falklands and their subpages. So, you might want to check up the subtractions correctly. For example, the last edit hasn't got the right number of recoveries, as there are 62 confirmed cases (right) but only 55 recoveries from the islands. On the other hand, I guess the Malvinas description does not harm for now unless it's brought up to any edition on a main page. I guess it could be because the editor is from Argentina or a Latin American country, where the islands are called that way. If you have any other concerns, let me know. Greetings! — MrE (talk) 17:06, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
- Today, the number of recoveries seem to be off by 10. It might be a typo, but sure, I'll check those. :) I can't say which claimant should have sovereignty over the islands, but the updates would have been more straightforward if the cases from there are not included in Argentina's daily reports. Well, this is the best that we could do with the figures that they are providing. By contrast, Ukraine does not include cases from disputed territories that are controlled by Russia and other separatist groups, so there is no need to subtract anything else.

Live+7
[edit]What exactly do you get from these pages? I'm looking at this page for Mr. Mayor DVR viewership, and have no idea what any of the numbers mean. Do you mind if you help me out? Thanks. NYCDOT (talk) 13:55, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hi! Delayed viewing (DVR) ratings work this way: the line "#22 Mr. Mayor (P) (NBC, Thu. 1/07/21 8:00 PM, 30 min.) +0.26 (+43.33%) (L+SD: 0.60; L+7: 0.86)" means that the episode of Mr. Mayor that aired on that date and time had a 0.6 rating on the Live+Same Day (L+SD) measurement, and a 0.86 rating on the Live+7 Days (L+7) measurement. That means that there was an addition of +0.26 rating points from the day it premiered to a week since its original airing. The same applies to the number of viewers of any listed episode, hence why there are two separated lists. If you have any other question feel free to ask. Greetings. — MrE (talk) 22:55, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you! Just one more small question, is the L+7 in millions viewership (which I'm assuming is considered total DVR viewership in millions for Wikipedia pages) determined by taking the the L+SD millions of viewers, take the Nielsen and find the 100% total, and then do 0.6% of whatever that number is? NYCDOT (talk) 17:37, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
- In the case of viewership, "#12 Mr. Mayor (P) (NBC, Thu. 1/07/21 8:00 PM, 30 min.) +1.548m (+30.68%) (L+SD: 5.046m; L+7: 6.594m)" means that 5.046 million people watched the episode live on that day (L+SD), and 1.548 million people watched the episode within seven days after its original airing, reaching to a total of 6.594 million people. That becomes the final number for delayed viewing in L+7. If you want to read more about it you can go to this page or keep asking! — MrE (talk) 21:41, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
- I must be blind, I didn't see "+1.548m". Thanks! NYCDOT (talk) 16:05, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
2020-21 United States network television schedule (daytime) changes
[edit]Hi! You made several helpful edits on the 2020-21 United States network daytime schedule page a few months ago. Can you help me moderate this page? I feel like it is becoming overblown with irrelevant and superfluous information. I would take this task on myself, but to be perfectly honest with you, I lack the editing skills to do so. I have contacted user Hoopstercat in order to make the necesarry corrections. However, I haven't heard back. I just want this page to be consistent with prior daytime schedules. Thanks for any help you are able to give. It is greatly appreciated. Thematrix92498 (talk) 15:59, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hey! Yes, I had that schedule on my watchlist a long time ago, but since that user you mention began making unnecessary changes and I was already busy with other projects, I stopped taking care of it. I think you should restore the page to the last version with the characteristics of the former daytime schedules, and begin working from there. The big ammount of colors, incorrect scheduling of shows and lack of lack of experience with the manual of style are things that should not be allowed. If you need help performing those changes, let me know. — MrE (talk) 23:29, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
Thanks, MrE. Your help is greatly appreciated. I have cleaned up the Monday-Friday schedule. That looks fine now. The Saturday schedule looks better though needs some more work. Sunday is a mess I haven’t gotten to yet, but I will probably fix that up later today. I remember you sent me some helpful websites where network programming was listed (I think TV Guide was one of them). Part of what I am having difficulty determining is how frequently we should differentiate between seasonal programming. For example, some of the programs on the weekend schedules only air for 4 or 5 weeks (usually sports programming). Is there a rule for how long a program is broadcast for it to be placed on the schedule? Right now Saturday and Sunday are broken up by fall, early winter, mid winter, late winter, early spring.... it’s too much. But I’m not sure of a legitimate reason to start deleting programs that only air for a few weeks. Thematrix92498 (talk) 17:03, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
- I think that a show should air at least 4 weeks in the same slot to classify as "regular" programming (it's applied to the primetime schedule). The 7pm hour on Sat has programming that mostly occurs on the primetime (where is listed) so should be removed; the split into "games" is unnecessary since everything is part of the same show. Also, for example: on Fox's Sundays, a "Fox Sports programming" legend should be put in place since the sports are not very consistent. As I said before, I was keeping track of the network changes to the Sat-Sun schedules but now I'm not aware of which timeslots are occupied by each program, you might want to take a look at old edits. Also, the color for the paid programming should be changed per MOS:COLOR. Again, if you need help with anything don't mind to ask. Cheers. — MrE (talk) 17:33, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Uruguay medical cases chart
[edit]Hi again and thanks for reporting that disruptive user. Will you be interested in updating this chart and the corresponding article regularly? I would like to discontinue updating those pages already (as well as some other similar pages), but I do not know yet if those pages will continue to be updated regularly by other editors. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 14:53, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hey! Yes, I could manage to update the Uruguay article/chart on a daily basis, but I would begin doing it after this week since I won't have much time until then. If you need help with anything else just let me know. — MrE (talk) 16:51, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks :) In recent months, Uruguay has been releasing new figures while I am asleep, so I could not always attend to those pages as soon as possible. I'll try to update those pages for a few more days, then you can go ahead. In case the dashboard is not working properly, you can use this page, which is usually updated a few minutes earlier.

Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina
[edit]@MrE: Your unfair accusations of disruptive editing to the page Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina resulted in block of my user profile in Wikipedia for 4 days and unfortunately due to this, the pages I was editing for with government based data (e.g. Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in India, Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany, COVID-19 pandemic in Japan, COVID-19 pandemic in Nepal) have fallen out of date. For your information the sources I used to edit the page Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina are https://www.argentina.gob.ar/salud/coronavirus-COVID-19/sala-situacion - Official COVID-19 Dashboard of the Argentine Ministry of Health, which you do not seem to fully follow as you sometimes miss 1 to 2 deaths in the "Daily deaths" chart. Please consider no one is the owner of any Wikipedia page and I'm sure if we communicate effectively we can reach to an agreement. I apologise I was not able to read the Talk page (just read all messages a few days ago) and thus the messages you sent me in regards to this 'edit warring' issue were not followed up. However, I consider that your serious accusations of vandalising Wikipedia were unfounded and have caused me to lost track of editing in the pages I mentioned before.
- I just read all of what happened, and I'm sorry for the blocking you received, but none of this was with bad intentions as I followed Wikipedia rules. I previously reported you because you updated incomplete/incorrect information and also did not reply any of the messages other users and I left on your talk page several times, but now that it was clarified I really appreciate your efforts to contribute. On the other hand, the thing about the Argentina page is that there are some aspects to take on account for the reported information. First, the total numbers must have (so far until today) a subtraction of 63 cases and recoveries from the Falkland Islands that are included on the Argentina's official reports. Second, the government lately has been "reclassifying" some duplicated or misinformed deaths, leading to a discrepancy between the number of the reported deaths and the final count. This is addressed on the chart that is included in the main page. The reason that number of daily deaths is added and not the one that the government reports is that it would mess with the seven-day moving average, as it was made from the beginning to match the number of total deaths. If you have any other concerns, just let me know. — MrE (talk) 17:13, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
Add Alex Landi as Nico Kim to Grey's Anatomy character table
[edit]Hi there! I noticed that you've twice removed Alex Landi as Nico Kim from the table of characters in Grey's Anatomy. Why is this? His character is not mentioned anywhere on the page despite being on the show just as long as Atticus "Link" Lincoln. Thanks!
- It's because he is not part of the main cast, just a recurring character only. — MrE (talk) 22:53, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
Possible sockpuppetry
[edit]Hi again. By now, it is clear that this SPI will not go anywhere because Flix11 was blocked for, ironically, evading his own block. However, Joplin201017 continues to do the same disruptive behavior. Aside from the issues that you have already pointed out, the user has repeatedly added large amounts of data without mentioning or providing any source, and other editors have already raised those issues. What other evidence could possibly be gathered? LSGH (talk) (contributions) 10:40, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hi. I didn't have time to read all of the stuff about the edits that user made in the past. For my part, I only have what I discussed with him in terms of editing behavior on the Argentina and Uruguay statistics pages (in which also seems off that the user only updates the charts or parts of them and not all the sections that require a daily update). Those issues were included in the first SPI that I created when the IP was blocked. Aside from that, if the user continues to add unsourced material,
{{uw-unsourced1}}
warnings should be given to see if it leads to either a consensus between editors or a block to prevent this from keep happening. — MrE (talk) 17:25, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
- What caught my attention was that Javito1993 and some IPs were editing the Malaysia stats. Now, Joplin201017 keeps on showing the same behavior. Large amounts of data were added to Mali, Lesotho, and Burkina Faso. Similar edits were also made to other pages in the past few weeks. I do not know how the user can spend a lot of time finding old data from different sources. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 15:16, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
- @LSGH: so essentially for the COVID-19 pandemic in Mali and COVID-19 pandemic in Burkina Faso pages, given that the the timelines of these two countries are updated until August and September 2021 what you can do is to use Excel to extract the cumulative cases, deaths and recoveries per date data directly from the timeline, go to the data tab, filter the data delimited by semicolon, separate recoveries, deaths and recoveries into several excel columns, fill missed dates with no changes in the total count, and proceed to use the substraction function to get your daily cases, recoveries and deaths by subtracting cumulative cases/deaths/recoveries of today minus yesterday. If the country doesn’t have an updated timeline or no timeline at all (most African countries fall in this category) I get the statistics for that country either from Our World in Data or John Hopkins University COVID-19 Data Repository and proceed to use Excel same as before. Please let me know if you have any doubt on this process. Thanks. Joplin201017 (talk) 02:20, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- @Joplin201017:, Are you manually entering the data from the timeline charts into excel and then performing subtraction functions? Please provide the exact link from where you got the data of a country whose chart was not updated from either Our World in Data or John Hopkins Data Repository.•Shawnqual• 📚 • 💭 14:19, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
@Shawnqual: yes the data is copied from the timeline as cumulative deaths, recoveries and cases and the dates for each of those numbers separated by semi colon, into a single column in excel. The data is then split into several columns for dates, cases, recoveries and deaths by using the split to columns and delimited functions. The daily numbers are then obtained in a new column by substracting the current day minus the day before, with the initial date when the first case was reported being copied exactly the same from the timeline as there’s nothing to subtract it from. Note you just need to do this for one cell and then drag down across the entire column as excel allows automatic calculations for every row based on a standard formula. At last you add a comma to the newly created column with your daily numbers using the &”,” function and then you make it into a graph in Wikipedia. The our world data link is here. The JHU data is here. Thanks. Joplin201017 (talk) 21:45, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
@MrE: I do not know why this kind of disruptive editing is still being allowed to continue. No one else seems to know what to do next. I had to keep on reverting several edits to a certain page because the user is still evading the indefinite block and disruptive behavior is still allowed to go on. More pages are now being affected and the truthfulness of the data could not be verified easily. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 13:49, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- @LSGH: my edits on COVID-19 Wikipedia pages like the ones in the Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia page that you keep reverting are always provided with their corresponding government-based sources like in the Malaysia case. Please stop labeling my edits as disruptive, understand that these edits are made in good faith and refer to the WP:OWN page to understand that no one owns pages in Wikipedia. You seem to have experienced issues with understanding this policy in the past[2]. Joplin201017 (talk) 01:47, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
@LSGH: I did not notice what are those issues that you mention as I haven't been as active as before on Wikipedia. If you could provide the examples of disruptive behavior, maybe we could all reach to an agreement and/or fix the issues corresponding to the editor. — MrE (talk) 01:56, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- The very existence of the account is a violation of WP:SOCK. Specifically, the page says that
sanctions apply to individual editors as people, not to accounts. Using a second account to edit in violation of an active block or community sanction will result in further sanctions, which may include reversion of your contributions.
It is known that Javito1993 is blocked indefinitely and other accounts have also been used to do disruptive edits. The fact that Joplin201017 was created less than 24 hours after Javito1993 was blocked means that continued disruption is the intent of the person who is using those accounts. Some issues with those accounts are the incorrect edits at Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina, the issues that Flix11 and HiChrisBoyleHere have seen at Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia, the unsourced or unverifiable data at COVID-19 pandemic in Oman and several other pages, and the persistence to use a certain format even if there is no immediate need to do so. There is a discussion where Joplin201017 tried to force HiChrisBoyleHere to accept a change of format. The reasoning that it isimpossible to visualise the charts on a smartphone and prolongs unneeded scrolling of the charts
is not a valid reason to change the format. One person complaining about readability is not a reason for others to adjust just to appease that person. The format at Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/Charts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia is the idea of another person who used that format several months ago. Flix11 could not provide evidence in such a way that other admins who are reading his report can understand what is going on, but, he was able to point to this editor interaction analysis.

- @LSGH: as discussed with @Shawnqual: here, Shawnqual clearly states that
statistical charts on every article are line type and not rectangle type, the reason behind that is because using rectangular format causes a major issue in terms of display and readable information for the viewers.
With HiChrisBoyleHere we discussed these issues and reached an agreement whereby data from the Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia page is displayed in line format which is easy to read and to access by any viewer from any technological platform. In terms of your sockpupetting accusations against my account, read and understand what was decided here, respect the clerk decision, and stop using this baseless argument against my editing done in good faith. Flix11 himself was found guilty of breaching the WP:SOCK policy so stop basing your accusations on someone who clearly breached this policy. Joplin201017 (talk) 23:02, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

[edit]2021-22 US network schedule (morning)
[edit]Hi Mr. E,
I’m having immense trouble with one user who is repeatedly reverting our edits (along with Hoopstercat’s) on the morning schedule. He is adamant that the Today Show extensions be labeled as talk shows. I believe you’ve actually reverted this exact edit from him before. He’s started a discussion on the talk page and I’d appreciate your input, regardless of your stance. As you’ve seen, moderating these schedules is a nightmare. Right now, they’re in more disarray than ever. I’m actually contemplating contacting admin, but I wanted to get your opinion first. Thematrix92498 (talk) 20:14, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 31
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Gran Hermano (Argentine season 10), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Twitch. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

2023–24 Canadian network television schedule
[edit]Can I get a temporary protection for 2023–24 Canadian network television schedule like was done with 2023–24 United States network television schedule? As the vandalism by 81.25.78.185 is still continuing. Xeditboy (talk) 15:17, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- I made a request to semi-protect it. You can follow it on here. Hope it works. — MrE (talk) 22:57, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
Concern regarding Draft:2024 Argentina network television schedule
[edit] Hello, MrE. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:2024 Argentina network television schedule, 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) 01:07, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
please use edit summaries
[edit] Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! -- Mikeblas (talk) 14:00, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
