 ::: I suggest something like a voluntary 1R restriction on any article. If you promise to abide by that, no matter what, no ifs ands or buts, it should go a long way toward setting up the conditions for releasing you from this block. Also be careful not to blame others  for the edit-warring. But be careful: if you break your 1R promise, most likely you'll end up in a worse situation than you are now.   "
