myself on this issue. As a matter of interest, my discussion on the talk page itself was not strictly medical, but was about the scientific definition of the terms "associated with" and "caused by", although in this case admittedly the terms were used in medical articles. Even if you do not lift the ban, you might want to unblock the IP address, as my ISP (Plusnet) uses dynamic IP addresses which change all the time, so the IP you blocked is not me. Incidentally, I am also going to appeal regarding my ANI ban on editing medical articles, as I cannot see any real basis for this ban. At one stage, when it seemed that many editors were all disagreeing with every point I suggested, I did unfortunately make a series of angry personal remarks; however, on request from the said editors, I promised to stop making such personal remarks, and had kept to this (though they in turn did not stop disagreeing with every point or suggestion I made — and it seems unlikely that I should be wrong on every point). Thus I am not sure of the reason for the ANI, which came out of the blue on some pretext, and I want to clarify precisely why the ANI was raised, and if it there was a legitimate basis to it. However, I appreciate that appealing against the ANI is a separate issue here.
1090:. A few editors can tell you they think it's not a violation but you opened the ANI discussion and failed to wait on any consensus there before jumping back in, in particular for an administrator to make a decision on it. When you made your first comments there, it may have been considered a small oversight but you responded at ANI acknowledging that you would need to request a complete removal of the ban and yet you went back to the AFD again. Rather than a block for the entire duration of the AFD, it's a short block so that you can return to the ANI discussion if need be or go somewhere else. Otherwise, you've made your points and, unless the ANI discussion results in the elimination of your ban, I'd suggest you watch the AFD from afar and move on. --
1048:
1133:...but that is okay. Listen I don't want to see your article deleted and it looks like you are unable to participate in the editing that it might need to meet the requirements of keeping it 'live'. I intend to copy it to my user page or off line to fix it up at a more leisurely pace. If I return here periodically in the next few days, do you think you can give me some better references that I put in the article that will help it meet MEDRs?

means nothing here on WP, and appealing to it will only backfire. WP is not the place to "do science". If that's what you want to do, publish in high-impact, reputable scientific journals so that other independent researchers can replicate and confirm your results, and so that they can deserve wide and substantial coverage in independent secondary sources.
657:(though I do suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome and ADHD, which makes reading documents difficult sometimes). For bans of a finite duration, it appears that flouting them will lead to the ban duration being increased; but as for indefinite bans like mine, I could not find in the said document what the consequences of flouting them might be.

I started on the definition of the terms "associated with" and "caused by". Presumably if any such email discussion take place between us, being offsite, it would not violate the topic ban (but please let me know if I am wrong here, and I will desist). Note this was just out of courtesy, as it was me
647:
Answer (1): No pages at all. I am not allowed to edit any article pages, talk pages, category pages or portal pages on
Knowledge (XXG) that are medical, and I am not allowed to talk about or contribute to any medical subjects whatsoever on any part of Knowledge (XXG), including on people's personal
998:
Your behavior at the AfD - jumping in instead of waiting for consensus that you can participate, is probably the most damaging thing you could have done to your appeal to have the topic ban lifted. It is clear that you are unwilling to restrain yourself and to actually listen to the community. I
593:
I did not realize that I was also banned from discussing medical topics on user talk pages; I assumed it would only apply to articles and their talk pages. I also assumed that I would be physically prevented from editing medical pages by software block; ie, I did not realize it was up to me police
616:
Thank you, my two questions weren't meant to trick you - I really wanted to know if you now understood what the ban means, and it seems you do. The answer to the second question (consequences of flouting ban) is that an indefinite block would follow, but hopefully that will not become necessary.
362:
I don't suppose I could persuade you to take a step back, take a little time to think or maybe have a good night's sleep, and come back to WP later? You've made your response on ANI now and it seems like this continued flurry of responses to people could reflect very negatively on you in the ANI
153:
There are no secrets here on WP. All of your edits are clearly visible to all other editors here on WP, and all editors are free to respond to them anywhere on WP as long as they are not accompanied by tendentiousness, personal attacks or other disruptive behavior. The word for what Zad68 did is
103:
A word of advice: if your personal research is connected with this topic, it would be wise to ignore it altogether. For my part, I've never even looked at a single WP article related to microbiology or any other field related to my own research. I don't need an ulcer. Furthermore, your expertise
1174:. If you want to argue to userify the page then request it at the AFD but don't start some sort of copyright violation by copying and pasting it for your own editing without the full history. If it's deleted, it can be advocated for and restored at a later time if there's consensus to do so. --
126:
If not stalking, do you call it when all the editors of the
Morgellons article are invited by Zad68 to view my activities elsewhere on Knowledge (XXG) — activities that have nothing to do with Morgellons. Is there a word for that? And what is your opinion on the acceptability of that behavior?
475:
which explains the situation. Specifically in your case you are banned from discussions or suggestions about medicine-related topics anywhere on
Knowledge (XXG), exactly as that section says (and as I spelled out above.) You are not only banned from articles and article talk pages, but from
303:
Fair enough. Given that, I apologize for my stalking comments. I only mentioned the
Morgellons article because at the top of the RSN page it tells you to specify the article in which the source is being used, and you cannot just get an answer from RSN on the general reliability of a source.
1213:
That's another issue but that's not the point to me. If you think the article is worth keeping, discuss it at the AFD. If you can convince people it's salvageable, it can made into a draft but otherwise it's Drgao's topic banning that's caused Drgao problems and no one else. --
25:
which is currently open. Today DRN has undergone a big move resulting in individual cases on subpages as opposed to all the content on one page. This is to inform you that your case is now back on the DRN board and you will be able to 'watch' the subpage it's located on. Thanks,

This ban on the Wiki
Medical area has been in place for two years. I would very much like it if I could be considered for unbanning. The reason I am asking is because I would like to partake in an AfD discussion on a Wiki Medical page that I originally created, namely the page
476:
discussing any medical topic anywhere on
Knowledge (XXG). If you would like to have my block (which is indefinite but not permanent) removed, please appeal it following the instructions above and let me know that you now understand your ban conditions. I will then unblock you.
632:
I will unblock you if you can answer the following two questions to my satisfaction. (1) On what page/s in
Knowledge (XXG) does your topic ban permit you to post on medical topics? (2) What will be the outcome if you post again on a page where you are NOT permitted to do so?
1021:
I was just astounded that you did not seem to know what the technical term "associated" means, which fundamental in understanding the purpose and significance of that article, so I felt I could not let it go. I have not voted though, you may have noticed.
697:
a more precise use of the terms "associated with" and "caused by". However, I think it might be better if I did not engage in any such email conversations, just to ensure I do not inadvertently break the ban. So I will not send any further email from now.

You are probably right, on refection. Zad probably thought my inquiry was
