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]. FromHowever theI discussionthink itself however,that I thinkprobably Ican't dobe haveunblocked towithout answersaying something about the topMars threedeletion debate, and the charges of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox_or_means_of_promotion WP:PROMO], and commercial use of Wikipedia content.
 
* '''''I accept the community decision to delete my article'''''. I voted against it however, andHowever I can't support the decisionreason given in the AfD to delete it on the basis, that articles in Wikipedia have to say that the surface of Mars is known to be sterile[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FModern_Mars_habitability&diff=prev&oldid=855472459]. The view that it could potentially host Mars organisms is NASA's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view WP:POV]. To check this, watch 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]. Please respect my oppose vote in the debate as sincere. However, I will not attempt to edit Wikipedia to include NASA'Ss views on this matter if unblocked. However, please don't require me to call these views [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE WP:CHEESE] as an unblock requirement, thanks.
{{cot|Details}}This is further supporting evidence that I was expressing NASA's views to the best of my ability, not my own:

* '''''The Wikipedia license permits me to sell Wikipedia content on kindle''''' 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]. I released the booklet in 2015 under the correct license and attributed Wikipedia with a link back following their guidelines[http://robertinventor.com/booklets/presentdaymarshabitats.html]. Some editors in the debate were unaware that Wikipedia's license[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_LicenseCreative] permits this.
 
If I answerwill collapse the remaining charges, itas willthis takeis thisalready wellslightly 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. Please note the dates - though many charges were made they were based on my editing history going back for a decade and not a result of new activity on my part.

* '''''Publishing part of a user space draft under a non free content license in 2017''''' Some editors were unaware that Wikipedia's license specifically permits dual licensing[https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-enter-into-separate-or-supplemental-agreements-with-users-of-my-work]. As author, I can release my content under CC by SA for Wikipedia, as an act of generosity on my part, and use the same content under a non free license elsewhere. This is what I did with some sections of my book released in 2017[http://robertinventor.com/booklets/If_humans_touch_Mars.htm]
 
Line 72 ⟶ 73:
I also wish to return to many things in the "to do" list for my Microtonal Project proposal[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals/Microtonal_Music,_Tuning,_Temperaments_and_Scales#Examples_of_things_we_could_do], which has twelve support votes[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals/Microtonal_Music,_Tuning,_Temperaments_and_Scales#Support].
