  • Comment: The "COI declaration" is obviously written by AI and is not genuine (in addition to being in the wrong place) and no new sources have been added. Taking Out The Trash (talk) 23:24, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: You have not yet declared your WP:COI, nor substantially addressed past concerns. I suggest if this is resubmitted without substantial improvement, the next reviewer reject, rather then decline, the submission. Greenman (talk) 18:32, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
