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]. I think I do have to answer these three though:
* '''''Contributing an article in March 2017 that contradicts statements[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_on_Mars#Cumulative_effects] in 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], and defending it from deletion.''''' I accept the final decision of the Wikipedia community that this material was removed. However the deleted material expressed the views of NASA, to the best of my ability, not mine. I can apologize for verbosity in the deletion debate but I can't apologize for adding my own views to Wikipedia, because I didn't do that. For another perspective, please watch this short (less than two minutes) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qk-Ycp5llEI official NASA video] about planetary protection for Mars organisms. It's the third video on the main overview page for the NASA Office of Planetary Protection[https://planetaryprotection.nasa.gov/overview] and so represents the official view of NASA.

* '''''Selling Wikipedia content on kindle in 2015''''' 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 under the correct license and attributed Wikipedia with a link back following their guidelines[http://robertinventor.com/booklets/presentdaymarshabitats.html]
If I answer the remaining charges, it will take this well over the recommended 500 word limit, and it is already slightly over, so I will collapse them. There was no consensus in the debate about what I was indef blocked for, so I have no idea which of these I need to answer, if any.
