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 parole 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)
