| There is an ongoing discussion tositeban me for no less than a year as I write this. I anticipate it will pass and if so, I will be forced by the community to not edit forat a minimum one year, possibly indefinitely. I am voluntarily stopping editing during the conversation and will not edit for a period ofat least 24 months, regardless of the outcome. Any editors wishing to know more are encouraged to look at the conversation to understand what was inappropriate about my conversations, judgement, interactions, etc. I will be gone from this site for a long term and possibly for good, pending the community's assessment of how disruptive I have been and if I can be a productive member. This isnot a standard wikibreak due to external, personal, or other factors: it is a ban and a additionally a break where I will take time to engage productively elsewhere and learn more aboutnon-violent communication strategies. I plan to edit other WMF wikis and be a constructive member there if anyone needs to reach me. If you reach out, I cannot be involved in any editing by proxy, discussion of issues, or other internal matters to the English Wikipedia and will not engage in them on-wiki or off-wiki. The community's decision is justified, reasonable, and the outcome of my choices. I accept it and am responsible for the issues. If the community allows me to reengage here, then I look forward to editing in a constructive manner. If not, then the time here has been good and I hope that the useful edits I have made have outweighed the disruptive actions. My sincere thanks to all those who have collaborated with me and sorry to those who have been negatively impacted by my actions. Be well and be good. |
