Bruce, we have never directly crossed paths or corresponded to the best of my knowledge. I happened to notice your two [[WP:Editing restrictions#Users subject to restrictions|editing restrictions]] on the list of restrictions (when I was reviewing my own). I read over the incident reports at AN, and I think you may have a case for a modification of your ban restrictions as follows: 1) The scope of your ban from all Christianity-related topics is overly broad. There is scant evidence of problematic editing across the category of Christian articles broadly construed. Therefore, I suggest you consider asking for the ban to be narrowed to the two articles on [[Christ Myth Theory]] and [[Josephus on Jesus]]. 2) Similarly, a ban from all fringe theory-related topics is overkill. This could be constrained to the single article where the problem occurred - [[Conspiracy Theories]]. You may also want to consider asking for the following changes: 1) 6 months probation to prove you can comply with your modified ban restrictions, and 2) a 1RR editing restriction in place of a T-ban. I suggest you appeal your bans directly to [[WP:BASC]]. No need to reply. Good luck. [[User:Ignocrates|Ignocrates]] ([[User talk:Ignocrates|talk]]) 05:25, 22 June 2014 (UTC) |

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Time travel]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Terminator]] ([http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Time_travel check to confirm] | [http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Time_travel fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> |

Hello
Bruce, we have never directly crossed paths or corresponded to the best of my knowledge. I happened to notice your two editing restrictions on the list of restrictions (when I was reviewing my own). I read over the incident reports at AN, and I think you may have a case for a modification of your ban restrictions as follows: 1) The scope of your ban from all Christianity-related topics is overly broad. There is scant evidence of problematic editing across the category of Christian articles broadly construed. Therefore, I suggest you consider asking for the ban to be narrowed to the two articles on Christ Myth Theory and Josephus on Jesus. 2) Similarly, a ban from all fringe theory-related topics is overkill. This could be constrained to the single article where the problem occurred - Conspiracy Theories. You may also want to consider asking for the following changes: 1) 6 months probation to prove you can comply with your modified ban restrictions, and 2) a 1RR editing restriction in place of a T-ban. I suggest you appeal your bans directly to WP:BASC. No need to reply. Good luck. Ignocrates (talk) 05:25, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
