* '''''Selling Wikipedia content on kindle''''' It was only a few sentences from a deleted section[https://tools.wmflabs.org/copyvios/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Water+on+Mars&oldid=556727781&use_engine=0&use_links=0&turnitin=0&action=compare&url=http%3A%2F%2Frobertinventor.com%2Fbooklets%2Fpresentdaymarshabitats.html]. Some editors in the debate were unaware that Wikipedia's license permits commercial use[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_LicenseCreative]. I released the booklet in 2015 under the correct license and attributed Wikipedia with a link back following their guidelines[http://robertinventor.com/booklets/presentdaymarshabitats.html]
* '''''Adding non free content to Wikipeda''''' Some editors were unaware that Wikipedia's license specifically permits dual licensing[https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-enter-into-separate-or-supplemental-agreements-with-users-of-my-work]. As author, I can release my content under CC by SA for Wikipedia, as an act of generosity on my part, and use the same content under a non free license elsewhere. This is what I did with some sections of my book released in 2017[http://robertinventor.com/booklets/If_humans_touch_Mars.htm]
* '''''Using Wikipedia to promote my blog''''' It was the other way around. I started my blog in 2013 to hostwith 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]. Telling my readers that the material was rejected from Wikipedia could hardy be further from using it to give my blog credibility! I never linked to my blog from Wikipedia articles.
 
I 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 provided responses in my astrobiology wiki[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Unblock_appeal_supplemental].
