Help me!

I am translating a page from Simple English to English. The page name is Naagin 3. At the moment it redirects to the show as a whole whereas the translated page will be only the third series. I am not sure how to go about this. Please advise.

Hi! I have removed the redirect, which will allow you to edit the page. Strikerforce^Talk 15:55, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

PoliceSheep99: you cannot copy/paste content around Wikipedia without providing proper attribution. This violates our copyright policies. See Copying Within Wikipedia. Note also that you should seek consensus at Talk:Naagin (TV series) before creating a content fork. There's no clear reason why a series with several seasons needs unique articles for each season. We only do this when there is sufficient new information to warrant it, like episode lists, reviews, etc. For example, we have a general article about SpongeBob Squarepants. Only when we generated enough new information about individual series did we branch off into SpongeBob SquarePants (season 1) and SpongeBob SquarePants (season 2), etc. Indian TV articles typically lack sufficient content to warrant these forks.

Lastly, if you are a paid editor, you are required to disclose that to us per WP:PAID. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:22, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

Cyphoidbomb:: I did not just copy/paste the content. I translated what I felt need to from the Simple Wiki article for the 3rd Season. In regards to the decicions made by the talk page, I apologise for not consulting. I have provided an explanation to the talk page as well here. For the record I am not nor have I ever been a paid editor.PoliceSheep99 (talk) 17:29, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

Fixing link rot

Hello! I noticed you added the {{linkrot}} template to W. Samuel Patten. You might be interested in adding ReFill to your bookmarks: by just copying and pasting the article's name, in a few clicks the link rot can be fixed and references improved. It's not perfect, but often preferable to unsightly maintenance templates. Cheers, --Animalparty! (talk) 01:11, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! Never heard of it before but always up to try new things. Yours. PoliceSheep99 (talk) 01:13, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes.
