I've forgotten references in the past and was kindly reminded about the expectation when I first started. And now, I'm doing the same for you. Please add references/edit your post as applicable in this case. There's still time to edit your article and retain your earnings.

I look forward to seeing more of your work in the future.

Hi! Thank you very much for responding. No need to apologize. We are here to learn and benefit from one another. The action is automatically applied upon discovery.

The problem was with your article and not necessarily with you. I will remove my DV. DV applied by other authors will have to be addressed by them.

Mistakes happen. Let’s do our best to correct the issue and move forward.

Yes, thank you for the advice, hopefully in the future we can remind each other and keep moving forward
Thaks You very much

I agree. Please let me clarify my last statement. I meant to write that I can remove my DV after the article is corrected. Thank you for your understanding and engagement.

Yes, of course
