    The only way to improve your diplomatic regard is to be ...well...diplomatic. In other words, no quick-Wonder fixes and you have to earn it

      It is a pity you can't actually see your status as in civII.
      Well at least sort of

      It's much more a guessing game now.
      not wanting gpt deals etc......

          A quite simple way to improve one's reputation is to trade. Even if you do not really want to trade, try trading territory map. For example, after the Ancient Era, every time I meet a 'non polite' AI I conclude a trade and buy its territory map for 5 or 10 if nothing more interesting.
          But the best way to improve one's reputation still seems to conclude a military alliance.

            trading your map lets the AI know where all your units are. It's one of the true AI 'cheats'. Technically, they already know, but they don't act on it until they have your map.

              In fact I avoid to trade my territory map (and world map of course) and do not accept such an agreement when I can. But I often buy AI's maps just to trade something.

                I trade my maps fairly frequently. Its even keeps the cost down. Sometimes it can produce a lot of money if I am the only one that has been mapping the ocean.

                I don't trade them when I have cut them off from land they won't otherwise be trying to plant settlers in. I don't trade them if I am the only one with knowledge of another continent untill shorty before they are going to discover it on their own or at least when I think should do so soon.

                The rest of the time there is little to be gained by not trading and at least some goodwill to be gained by doing so.

                  It's pretty silly that the only reputation you can't see is your own.
