Atheism DR Closure
I have posted a closing comment for the dispute resolution attempt on Talk:Atheism. I also posted a lengthy response to a comment left on my talk page by Adraeus on a sub-page located here: User talk:Skyler1534/DR. Since both involve you, I thought I would alert you to this so that you could take a look. Thank you for your participation in this dispute resolution. I am sorry it did not work out better.

Bureaucratship
Hello Nick - I just wanted to let you know that I'm running for bureaucratship, and I would like to ask for your vote, be it good or bad. I'm sending this message to a few users I respect who have interacted with me recently. Thanks, Andre (talk) 00:30, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC)
Careful with that formating
I found your comment strangely out of place, and moved it (and responded to it) @ User_talk:Sam_Spade#Misplaced_rant.

Regarding Sam Spade's Comments to You
Nick-- I've responded to Sam's misrepresentation of his actions on his Talk page, but it will likely be quickly deleted by Sam based on my past experience with him there. Sam, I'm afraid, has not been exactly honest about the nature of the email he sent me using the wikipedia email system. He claims it did not did contain obscene content when in fact it did contain obscene language. It was clearly vulgar and insulting. It reads verbatim:
- Date: Thu, 4 Nov 2004 12:36:29 GMT
- To: "FeloniousMonk" <[email protected]>
- Subject: Wikipedia e-mail
- From: "Sam Spade" <[email protected]>
- X-Mailer: MediaWiki interuser e-mailer
- Fuck you, you ignorant rat bastard
Feel free to edit the vulgar bit if it offends your sensibilities here. Further, though he claims otherwise, email is indeed admissible as evidence in Arbitration according to a current arbiter. What's amazing to me is that by claiming his insulting email is not covered by policy, he tacitly admits that by sending me this obscene email using the wikipedia "E-mail this user" function he's cynically exploiting a policy loophole allowing him to abuse the wikipedia system. Interestingly, this same arbiter in an email to me characterized Sam's vulgar email as "Despite my normally good feelings towards Sam (and regardless of your actions towards Sam), I really can't see that this is anything but wrong on his part."
I hope this brings a little balance and honest fact to what has been Sam's very stilted mis-characterization of his recent email to me.--FeloniousMonk 20:08, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- No problems with the vulgar stuff in this context. As predicted Sam has deleted your uncomfortable comments on his talk pages, still they are there in the history page on record as yet another example of his appalling disingenuousness--Nick-in-South-Africa 06:26, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Nick, contact me by email when you have a chance.--FeloniousMonk 22:02, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Atheism
I would very much like you to participate on the Atheism:Talk page so that we can arrive at a compromise and get it unblocked. What is the issue, in your opinion? --BM 04:28, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Disappearing content
Nick-- Evidence related to the Sam Spade incident has been mysteriously disappearing lately, and this seems to have happened on your talk page: [1] I'm wondering if this due to your an action of your own to tidy-up your page, or has someone been busy purging incriminating evidence again. Who performed the deletions is not apparent in the page history. Are you able to shed any light on this? FeloniousMonk 15:30, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
