David Welcome to Wiki, Your Patience and attitude is great.
Sorry you have been bit so hard by some of the editors. Some have abused you and clearly violated wikis rule of conduct. It is unfortunate that many who do this know better. Below is a post by a self described New Age editor with a bias against you. I verbally censured him on his talk page and you could bring his intolerant comments to an administrator for guidance on how to address his behavior. I am somewhat new also but know his stereotype is not tolerated on Wiki.
For a Bible thumper it may be very difficult to understand that the Bible is not wholly and objectively true. But as long as he keeps his faith in the infallibility of the Bible completely separate from his Misplaced Pages activities, he could be a good editor. Some years ago I did not know that one has to use reliable sources in order to edit Misplaced Pages, but when asked to consider it, I understood this is required from everybody and I complied with this request. For me, the decision was between complying and continuing to edit and quitting in protest; I was not willing to create problems through my edits. This does not imply that I lost faith in the truth of my contributions, but I have understood that they are required to be encyclopedically verifiable. And verifiable means having reliable sources.

Could you take a look at Maimonides talk
Hey David, it seems you are knowledgeable about Maimonides. Can you take a look and give your views? Thanks!155.246.151.38 (talk) 16:25, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
Canvassing at Silwan
You are in clear breach of WP:CANVASS and in particular, the section Inappropriate notification Selfstudier (talk) 18:35, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
Idk if this was the last word on your tban. If it was, it seems you are in breach of that, too.Selfstudier (talk) 19:04, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
- Looks like your days in this topic area are done, David. I'm a little stunned, tbh, at the flagrant nature of the violation. Contacting only like-minded editors? Contacting anyone en masse? Perplexing, truly. El_C 19:11, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
- @El C:. If I request a comment, without telling a person what he or she should actually say, is that canvassing? If so, I was unaware of that. I am giving an individual the complete freedom to make his or her choice, without telling them what to do. Besides, we're talking here about a historical/biblical site with absolutely nothing to do with the I/P conflict.Davidbena (talk) 19:45, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
- Look, David, if you want me to do you a favour and sanction you directly, I can help you with that. If you'd rather go through the noticeboard complaint gauntlet that your opponents are almost certain to file and are almost certain to preserve in, I'm okay with that, as well. But if you were to choose the former, I'd need to know what previously-rescinded sanctions I'd be reinstating, so I know what to write in the log. Because I'm not that familiar with your editing history, so I'm a bit in the dark there. El_C 19:52, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
