Nobody ever suggested "blocking" you.  Who could even do that?  You'd
have to violate the list's policy in some egregious way, such as
sending commercial spam, to get the attention of the list administrators.

YOU, on the other hand, have accosted at least two people and asked them
to stop posting in threads that you had started.

At this point, if you expect anyone to engage with you, you need to stop
repeating yourself and spewing invective.  Instead, focus on the tasks
that people have asked you to do.

Show us an example of the work that you propose to do.  Create a page
on the Debian wiki containing additional EXAMPLES for some man page
that you consider to be in need of this enhancement.

This means you will need to work out how you plan to manage the page
namespace.  For example, are you going to differentiate between different
releases (buster/ls.1 bullseye/ls.1 and so on)?  How about alternative
implementations of the same command across different packages within
the same release?

For example, consider:

https://manpages.debian.org/buster/moreutils/parallel.1.en.html
https://manpages.debian.org/buster/parallel/parallel.1.en.html

Two implementations of the parallel(1) command, from two separate
sources.  Very different.  How do you plan to handle this situation?

Once you've written up new EXAMPLES for a few man pages to get the ball
rolling, it's possible that you'll find other people interested enough
to help you out.  But until then, I doubt anyone's going to step up and
do your work for you.
