Hello, Lingua0Franca. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest in Wikipedia – please see WP:SELFCITE and WP:MEDCOI. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

Scientific articles should prefer secondary sources to ensure that the information added is trusted by the scientific community.

The editing community highly values expert contributors, so I do hope you will consider contributing more broadly. If you wish to contribute, please first consider citing review articles written by other researchers in your field and which are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite your own research, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add request edit to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

 * I think that constructive contributions with enough references should be accepted, even a small part of it, as my contributions have all been deleted. I cannot consider contributing more broadly (even under the approval of other users, which would place me under tutelage), as it is too discouraging to notice that my years of research and hours of editing here have been completely discarded. 2A01:CB05:638:A900:98FB:DFB2:BD59:39AB (talk) 16:30, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
