* spent a long time over it
* another editor suddenly deleted it.
* and I try to defend it
I am aware I tend to become more verbose inwhen complexthis situations like a deletion debatehappens, it’s my academic background kicking in!
 
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, Dorje108's Encyclopedia of Buddhism[https://encyclopediaofbuddhism.org], and my new Encyclopedia of Astrobiology[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org]. Most of my encyclopedic content creation is now in these wikis.
 
If unblocked I aim to focus mainly on fixing errors.

In Wikipedia, if I do this at all, I will:

This will ensure the material is suitable for Wikipedia. before I start, and at every stage along the way.
 
I am also committed to reducing my word count.

*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.
Most of this material is from years ago. Although the sanction debate focused on this, actually it is rare that I added substantial content, even before getting involved in these new wikis.
 
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.
The main thing I do in Wikipedia is error fixing.
 
Here are examples of errors I've noticed since being blocked, plus four suggested fixes that other editors have suggested I do but sadly didn't notice this until after I was blocked[https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions].
 
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]
