User talk:Samspade

Heya, welcome to wikipedia! You might want to consider getting a different username though, as there's already a reasonably well-known User:Sam Spade and it could get a little confusing otherwise. If you want to have the contributions you made under this username listed as being made by your new username, ask a Bureaucrat to rename your account at Changing username. Happy editing! --fvw *  21:29, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

We have a policy against confusing usernames (Username) and unfortunately your username could easily be confused with User:Sam Spade. You've continued to edit since the above message, so I have blocked your account for the time being. -- Curps 21:03, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Please reply here. I can then unblock your account so that you can contact a bureaucrat, as suggested above. -- Curps 21:04, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

This doesn't seem to be a sockpuppet
So I'd prefer it if this user could be unblocked, at least long enough for them to discuss the matter. Sam Spade 16:35, 24 September 2005 (UTC)


 * I am merely waiting for this user to acknowledge the messages above by replying to this page, before unblocking. Note that there was no reply to an earlier message by fvw.


 * To User:Samspade: although you are temporarily blocked from editing other pages, you can still edit this (your own) talk page. Please reply here. -- Curps 14:03, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Samuel Spade
When it was brought to my attention that my name was almost the same as SamSpade, changed it to full name, SamuelSpade. Sorry for the confusion. Look for me as SamuelSpade for now on. Samspade 03:14, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
