<nowiki></nowiki>{{unblock|reason=Firstly, apologies for taking up so much of everyone’s time in the past. With guidance from friends, I have been able to learn valuable lessons on Wiki editing. I would now like to re-engage, mainly as a wikignome, with no hard feelings on my side.
 
My plan is to do minor edits and corrections for six months. After that, to do any major content with collaborators. This would deal with issues of competence, because we would be working together. I already do this on Wikinews[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:NASA%27s_InSight_Lander_makes_it_to_Mars][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Mysterious_dimming_of_Tabby%27s_star_likely_due_to_space_dust,_not_alien_superstructures,_say_scientists][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Simple_animals_could_live_in_Martian_brines:_Wikinews_interviews_planetary_scientist_Vlada_Stamenkovi%C4%87#Review_of_revision_4457552_%5BPassed%5D][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Sun%27s_mood_swings_not_so_strange_after_all,_say_scientists]. After completing it together we'd submit it for review as a Good Article again similarly to WikiNews. I have already worked on an article with another editor here in this way[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=David_Meade_(author)&diff=prev&oldid=830640681]. I can probably find microtonal collaborators[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor#Microtonal_Music,_Tuning,_Temperaments_and_Scales_project_proposal]
The main issues arose when
* I spent a long time authoring substantial new content (Or Dorje108 did, for Buddhism)
* another editor suddenly deleted it, or nominated it, usually without prior discussion
* and I posted to talk pages to try to get it restored or kept. Note, I never edit war. Just talk.
I am aware I tend to become more verbose when this happens, 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] the deleted content is now in other wikis or blogs (e.g. [https://encyclopediaofbuddhism.org][https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org][http://robertinventor.com/ftswiki/Tune_Smithy][https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/Clathrate_gun_hypothesis][https://www.science20.com/robert_inventor/mystery_of_morgellons_disease_or_delusion_scientific_hypothesis_of_connection_with_lyme_disease-155742]). I accept the consensus decision to delete it here.

Note, I was the main editor of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_protection Planetary protection] (69.3% mine, check with WhoColor[https://f-squared.org/whovisual/]). However, if unblocked, I will not even do minor edits because of connection with deleted material[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_protection#Mars_special_regions][https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org/wiki/Planetary_protection#Mars_special_regions] but edit my copy[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org/wiki/Planetary_protection#Mars_special_regions].
 
I ask to be unblocked to return to errorminor fixingedits[https://doomsdaydebunked.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_mistakes_or_omissions] which I did most weeks as volunteer editor for Wikipedia. I have a good track record. In the year before the block, I fixed over 90 articles[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&offset=20180731235959&limit=500&contribs=user&target=Robertinventor&namespace=0&tagfilter=&start=&end=2018-07-31], with only 2 reverts[https://encyclopediaofastrobiology.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor/Wikipedia_minor_fixes_examples#Other_editor_reverted_edit]
 
Eventually I may return to content creation. If so, my plan is to seek collaborators from the start, for encyclopedic tone, WP:RS, WP:NPOV etc, then seek Good article review as for David Meade[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=David_Meade_(author)&diff=prev&oldid=830640681]. I can probably find microtonal collaborators[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Robertinventor#Microtonal_Music,_Tuning,_Temperaments_and_Scales_project_proposal] However for now that's for Wikinews where I collaborate with other editors for substantive content[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:NASA%27s_InSight_Lander_makes_it_to_Mars][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Mysterious_dimming_of_Tabby%27s_star_likely_due_to_space_dust,_not_alien_superstructures,_say_scientists][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Simple_animals_could_live_in_Martian_brines:_Wikinews_interviews_planetary_scientist_Vlada_Stamenkovi%C4%87#Review_of_revision_4457552_%5BPassed%5D][https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Sun%27s_mood_swings_not_so_strange_after_all,_say_scientists].
