Posting, assuming that I'll be sitebanned. The only other edits I plan to make are on What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July? and Marry Me Jane, pending that I'm not banned and blocked prior to getting to them. If so, thanks for the opportunities. Be good and be well.

| message = There is an ongoing discussion to '''siteban''' 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 for ''at a minimum'' one year, possibly indefinitely. I am voluntarily stopping editing during the conversation and will not edit for a period of ''at 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 is '''not''' 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 about [[non-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.

I'm nobody special.

For visibility, I was a Campus and Online Ambassador for several courses for several years and the account User:Example2011 was made by me. I do not edit from it. I do not have any other alternate accounts on Wikimedia Foundation projects and do not consciously edit from IPs. I have done some digging to find all of my previous IP edits and noted them below.

After about two years of having potential clients ask me to write Wikipedia articles for them and me always declining, I worked to create the article on Bob's Watches. Everyone with whom I worked was patient and gracious and took plenty of time to try to understand Wikipedia's norms about promotion, paid editing, disclosure, terms of service, etc. I do not advertise my services editing Wikipedia and I am not willing to accept payment of any kind for editing in the future, even if other clients are willing to abide by the terms of service of the site. Note that I cannot edit for pay without disclosure and the two instances where I was paid were explicitly noted. I have been approached off-wiki to work on the following articles and actually made some edit (not all had money or any kind of remuneration offered):

In terms of other possible conflicts of interest, I have some personal association with articles on:

Please note that I am unwilling to do paid editing but I have in the past; it's honestly too much of a headache. I am happy to give advice and consult for free and if you need some serious writing work done, it will require me to disclose that work as well as change my user rights status here. My preference is to help you figure out how we can work together to make the encyclopedia stronger.
