Please stop creating new drafts
Hello, I am Diannaa and I am a Wikipedia administrator. Please stop creating new drafts that copy text from elsewhere online. That's not allowed, because it's a violation of our copyright policy. I have deleted some of your drafts for this reason. Also, drafts such as Draft:Linux mint cinnamon flavor - 3385957 will never be Wikipedia articles. Please stop creating them. We already have an article on Cinnamon (desktop environment) that includes Linux. We already have an article on Kali Linux. — Diannaa (talk) 12:34, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
