new user  added a new academic article as a citation to an unsourced statement. This is that users first and only edit. The lead author of that paper is Thiago Garrett, which is likely that same user. Experienced article reviewer  reverted the edit at 
*special:diff/1071652801/1071653370
because of self-promotion.
I get the fear, because in 999 out of 1000 cases, people who cite their own articles are doing so to spam citations in places where they do not fit. In this case it seems to fit. I do not regret MrOllie's revert because we have so few academic editors, but I think we are good here. I am reverting the revert pending discussion. 
The citation works in this case, right? Thgarrett it would be helpful if you cite your own articles in the future if you added a bit of description about yourself to your userpage. Wikipedia is under constant attack and misconduct and briefly identifying your editing interests helps.  Bluerasberry (talk) 18:57, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed I'm the first author of that paper. I apologize for the inconvenient, I'll pay attention to the rules next time. About the citation, I planned on adding a paragraph (and the reference to the paper) to the page Net_neutrality_by_country, since I believe it is highly relevant for that particular page. However, I'm not sure this would adhere with the COI rules. I would appreciate any feedback. Thgarrett (talk) 20:28, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: The recommended practice is to propose the change on the article's talk page instead of making it yourself when you have a COI. If it is a low traffic page, you can draw attention by using the  template (click on the link for instructions). - MrOllie (talk) 20:38, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Net neutrality by country source and potential COI 

message: Currently in the first section of the article it says "Opponents of net neutrality argue that it reduces investment, deters competition, increases taxes, imposes unnecessary regulations, prevents the Internet from being accessible to poor people, prevents Internet traffic from being allocated to the most needed users, that large Internet providers already have a performance advantage over smaller providers, and that there is already significant competition among Internet providers with few competitive issues."
Is "poor people" an appropriate term. Should there be any changes to the article to make it sound less offensive to some people? Blindroses (talk) 18:54, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  is "poor people" really an appropriate term to describe people who may not be able to afford internet access??
