to be fair ip has stated at least twice that he does not care about promoting his books the content ip deleted was infact a violation of wp rs which he did state on at least one of the deletions ip has posted at least references that do fall within wp rs guidelines ip has also stated that they only wish to be acknowledge for the ground breaking information which may be true i hope i'm not being forward and forgiving me for assuming this ip if it is not true but i think ip wishes to be acknowledged for rediscovering information perhaps ip should state things in rd person via wp rs the guidelines state that work may be added as long as it directly contributes to the article in which case imho it does i think if ip would read and follow the guidelines they might be far more welcomed within this community to be more fair a request is not a demand and therefore not a violation of policy the only legitimate issue here is that does not sign their post don't really think thats ban worthy but i think they know why they are banned
