As per [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Why_was_the_page_I_created_deleted%3F#If_all_else_fails,_try_another_wiki WP:OTHERWIKIS] we have made new wikis to host the deleted content[https://encyclopediaofbuddhism.org][https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org].
▲I am aware I tend to become verbose when I try to defend myself, it’s my academic background kicking in!
If unblocked I aim to focus mainly on fixing errors.

*Summary:
{{quote|Recent discoveries on Mars, including recurring slope lineae, ground ice, and active gully formation, have been interpreted as indications for the transient presence of water. The potential for liquid water on Mars has profound implications for the habitability of the modern Mars environment. This session solicits papers that examine the evidence for habitable environments on Mars, present results about life in analogs to these environments, discuss hypotheses to explain the active processes, evaluate issues for planetary protection, and explore the implications for future explorations of Mars.}}

The views I tried to express mostly came from NASA, as in this short (less than two minutes) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qk-Ycp5llEI official NASA video], third on the main overview page for the NASA Office of Planetary Protection[https://planetaryprotection.nasa.gov/overview]. I accept the community decision.
I didn't contribute many articles to Wikipedia, and our other wikis take up a lot of my time now.
I spent most time error fixing, and this is what I want to return to do. Here are examples I've noticed since the block[https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions], and including three[https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions] that I offered to do and was told to go ahead, but sadly I didn't notice this until after I was blocked.
When I have time I may also return to my work on patrolling proposals for deletion[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor#Patroling_proposals_for_deletion], and my work on microtonal music including the Microtonal Music project proposal "to do" list[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals/Microtonal_Music,_Tuning,_Temperaments_and_Scales#Examples_of_things_we_could_do]
