Excellent advice on paper review:
1. Peer reviewers are volunteers.
2. Map all comments to actions.
3. Address all comments.
4. Focus on improving your paper, instead of arguing.
5. Rarely, and only with strong defense, say no.
6. Don’t take things personally.
7. Avoid recreational revisions.

3. I then found out that the author mixed suicide RATES (per 100,000) with suicide RATE RATIOS either standardized to 1 or to 100. See my comments to the figure. I confirmed this by looking at several individual studies. Of course this doesn't make sense at all.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True.
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

This is not a 'review' but rather a blow to research across the world.
Respective countries should maintain repositories of their data. By saying this, I am not supporting the cessation of DHS at the main site but am hoping for an alternative solution.

DHS surveys—essential to global health infrastructure—make you describe a project before you can download data.
My students are reporting nobody is responding anymore.
1. If you have DHS data downloaded, hang on to it!
2. Has anyone started consolidating these in case they disappear completely?
