Most of the issues raised were in a situation where I or another author added substantial new content, spent a long time over it, and another editor suddenly deleted it or nominated it for deletion, with no prior discussion or involvement in the editing.
My plan if unblocked is to do most of my substantial editing in my own wikis. If I do anything like that here, I will endeavour to find support of co-editors with diverse views first. I also recommend this to friends. This will also help with gray area issues of encyclopedic tone, notability, reliable sources and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view WP:NPOV].

As for the rest of the charges, I don't have much to go on with the closing statement: ''"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]. The problem I have here is that the main thing I did "wrong" according to the unblock debate was to defend my Modern Mars Habitability article from being deleted which they say as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE WP:CHEESE].

It's the third video on the main overview page for the NASA Office of Planetary Protection[https://planetaryprotection.nasa.gov/overview]. I understand that the final decision of the Wikipedia community is that material that contradicts that section[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_on_Mars#Cumulative_effects] should be deleted. However please don't make it an unblock requirement that I have to say that NASA's views are [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE WP:CHEESE].
