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]. From the discussion itself however, I think I do have to answer thesethe top three charges:
 
* '''''TheI accept the community decision was to delete my article''''' They did this for saying that Mars is not known to be sterile and for quoting: "The environment on Mars potentially is basically one giant dinner plate for Earth organisms"[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FModern_Mars_habitability&diff=prev&oldid=855472459].''''' This is what the sanction debate calls [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE WP:CHEESE]. However, it 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]. That NASA spokeswoman is also the author of the quote about it being potentially a giant dinner plate for Earth organisms<ref name=Conley>{{cite news|last1=Chang|first1=Kenneth|title=Mars Is Pretty Clean. Her Job at NASA Is to Keep It That Way.|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/06/science/mars-catharine-conley-nasa-planetary-protection-officer.html|agency=New York Times|date=October 5, 2015}}
 
{{quote|"The salts known as perchlorates that lower the freezing temperature of water at the R.S.L.s, keeping it liquid, can be consumed by some Earth microbes. “The environment on Mars potentially is basically one giant dinner plate for Earth organisms,” Dr. Conley said."}} </ref>, not me. The quote was taken out of context in the deletion debate. My article explained that by "potentially", she means, if surface brines are present[http://deletionpedia.org/en/Modern_Mars_habitability#cite_ref-32]. I do accept this decision and will not attempt to edit Wikipedia to include NASA'S views on this matter if unblocked. However, please don't require me to call it [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CHEESE WP:CHEESE] as an unblock requirement, thanks.
