Most of the issues that lead to the indef block were in a situation where
* I or someone else as sole author spendspent a long time adding content to Wikipedia, following the guidelines to the best of our ability.
* Another editor suddenly, in a bold edit, removesremoved the content or nominatesnominated it for deletion, without prior discussion or editor involvement.
The problems arisearose when I trytried to get this content restored or defenddefended it from deletion.
 
It is rare that I add new articles. My article creation list has only one other in the two years before the sanction debate; the rest are redirects [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Robertinventor&namespace=0&tagfilter=&newOnly=1&start=2015-08-01&end=2017-08-31].

That is my complete appeal ifIf I only answer correct charges, that's my complete appeal. However sadly there were many mistaken points. The closing admin just wrote: ''"Closing with a consensus towards an indef block, plus my own admin judgment in that direction."''[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=855723651#User:Robertinventor,_again]. Nor was there any clear consensus in the debate about what it is I was sanctioned for.
 
There was no consensus in the debate about what I was sanctioned for. I will answer the top five charges briefly
 
* '''''Adding an article that contradicts statements in Wikipedia and by the current main editor of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_on_Mars Life on Mars] that the Mars surface is known to be sterile [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FModern_Mars_habitability&diff=prev&oldid=855472459 diff].''''' This is what is described as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE POV/OR/SYNTH/CHEESE] in the sanction debate [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=855723651#User:Robertinventor,_again]. Before deciding if the deleted article[http://deletionpedia.org/en/Modern_Mars_habitability] expressed my views or those of NASA, please watch this one and a half minute video[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qk-Ycp5llEI]. It is third on the overview page of the NASA Office of Planetary Protection[https://planetaryprotection.nasa.gov/overview].

* '''''Using Wikipedia to promote my blog''''' It was the other way around. I started my blog in 2013 to host material deleted from Wikipedia. I explain this to readers of my blog[https://www.science20.com/robert_inventor/blog/mars_sample_receiving_facility_and_sample_containment-116050]. I never linked to my blog from Wikipedia articles.
 
ToI can answer all the remaining charges too. They also are mistaken. However this would take this well over the recommended 500 word limit, and it is already slightly over. I have however provided responses in my astrobiology wiki[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Unblock_appeal_supplemental]. They also are mistaken.
 
If you reject this appeal for its length, please give some indication of what I am indef blocked for, so that I can do a shorter appeal in the future.
 
I have absolutely no wish now to edit in the Mars astrobiology area in the future, or to attempt a second Buddhism topic ban appeal, unless there are major changes in how those topics are presented in Wikipedia. Instead I edit Dorje108's new Encyclopedia of Buddhism[https://encyclopediaofbuddhism.org], and my new Encyclopedia of Astrobiology[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org], both based on material deleted from Wikipedia. As I see it, you have lost two content creators (myself and Dorje108) in those topic areas.
 
If you unblock me I will return to my work on fixing errors which I continue to notice most weeks but are now unable to fix[https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions], and occasionally patrolling proposals for deletion[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor#Patroling_proposals_for_deletion]. That includes four cases where another editor said to implement my proposed fix, but I couldn't because I'd been blocked [https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions#Other_editor_said_to_go_ahead_and_do_it_.28but_only_noticed_after_block.29].
