'''To the Ban Committee''':

I would like to appeal my ban of 23 August 2013. I have [http://www.conservapedia.com/User:PeterKa/Arbcom a collection of supporting material], including my appeal from 2013 and testimonials from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bermicourt Bermicourt] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jenks24 Jenks24]. Jenks reviewed this document and suggested that I express my willingness to accept a diacritics topic ban, which I am willing to accept. At one point, I was one of the editors most eligible for adminship, according to a scoring matrix. Following a year-long campaign against me by several editors, I was blocked and banned. An article I wrote about Sino-Vietnamese characters was the catalyst. Other issues involved include Vietnamese diacritics and a parody I wrote about the gender categories issue (made famous by Amanda Filipacchi).
