'CoI' removal

Your account seems to be dedicated to removing references to my work. In most if not all cases these references have been added by others with no conflict of interest, and in some cases are papers that have been independently peer reviewed and well cited. Furthermore as far as I understand, CoI isn't a reason to blanket remove useful content. Anyway I'll leave it for others to sort out but am troubled that you seem to have a vendetta against me.

Hello Uwsi, and thanks for patrolling new pages!

Information icon Hello, I'm ZH8000. I noticed that you recently removed content from List of countries by traffic-related death rate without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. And explain your intended changes before on talk page, especially by updating and deleting masses of data! ZH8000 (talk) 12:16, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Argentina contaminated fentanyl (August 24)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Haj was:
This submission appears to be a news report of a single event and may not be notable enough for an article in Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#NEWS and Wikipedia:Notability (people)#People notable for only one event for more information.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.
Haj (talk) 02:49, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
Hi Haj, the main reason I created a draft instead of the article directly is to get some feedback about its prose, I'm pretty sure the article is notable. I don't see how it could be interpreted as routine news coverage. Uwsi (talk) 03:42, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
Presently, there’s not sufficient enough writing to judge it as a prose rather than a simplified timeline. I'm also unsure if it will meet WP:LASTING, though that may very well change as news progresses. I have no doubt there’s sufficient coverage of the incident, given that you've provided several reliable sources, and will likely be able to provide more in-depth information. There is no deadline.
If you would like feedback before submitting again from myself or others, feel free to ping me or ask away in the AfC help desk—or in TeaHouae, which you have already done. (I typically do not re-review an AfC for acceptance/denial without someone else checking to avoid any bias, but I'm happy to assist in working to improve it.) Haj (talk) 04:22, 24 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Uwsi! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

  • Special report: What actually happened during the Wikimedia security incident?
    A horrifying exploit took place, which could have had catastrophic and far-reaching consequences if used maliciously; instead, it seems to have happened by accident and was used for childish vandalism. How did this happen, and what did the script actually do?
