Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

The responsibility to explain recent changes lies with the user who recently provided new information, especially given that the material was disputed. Please, do so. — Sadko(words are wind)10:13, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I need to inform the administrators that the user Sadko has been blocked from editing Eastern Europe.[[1]] Again he started deleting sources and doing disruptive editing on Wikipedia. [[2]] 192.71.144.210 (talk) 11:06, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The new section I created is essential for understanding the current state of human rights in Serbia, particularly in light of significant concerns raised by reputable sources, including Amnesty International and the United States Department of State. This content highlights a notable decline in the observance of human rights since 2012, as detailed in the Freedom House Report and recognized internationally. Wikipedia encourages the inclusion of diverse perspectives, in accordance with WP:WEIGHT, and underscores the importance of citing reliable sources as outlined in its guidelines. The information presented in this section is well-supported by credible references, and removing it would not only compromise the article's integrity but also contradict Wikipedia's commitment to providing comprehensive and balanced coverage of critical issues. According to WP:UNCENSORED, content should not be removed simply because it is controversial or critical. I'm sorry but accept it. And also regarding WP:NPOV, the section aims to present factual information grounded in reputable sources, thereby contributing to a balanced representation of Serbia's human rights landscape.

Is that really the case? From what I can tell, this looks like a classic example of WP:CHERRYPICK. All of this could be summarized in one or two sentences within the sections that already exist in the article. This addition is weak because it focuses on just a small part of a much larger topic, and strangely, it highlights only the negative aspects. Furthermore, similar sections are missing in many, if not most, articles about UN member states. For instance, the issue of Human rights in the USA is briefly mentioned with a link to the main article, and there's no separate section in the Germany article either. Given that this page is already overly long, with over 500 references and recent efforts to streamline some sections, adding more material (with even more to come) seems excessive. Once there's consensus on this issue, more sentences could be added if necessary. This addition, in my book, is simply way bellow the level of this article. Also, those statistcs often change, which has been the case with Serbia. There is none of that in the text you proposed. Also, please do not engage in EW and do not drag other editors into similiar situations.
Secondly, could you kindly point out where and when you achieved a clear consensus to include Milosevic's photo? What we need is a clear proof of concensus on this matter. I used the Visual Editor and didn’t notice the bold, caps-lock text you added, advising editors not to be bold and act based on their own judgment, which, all things considered, would likely lead to the image being removed. — Sadko(words are wind)13:57, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
