Regarding Endorsements for Sam Spade 

That Sam finds uncomfortable and undesirable how he is viewed by others here on wikipedia is unfortunate but irrelevant; he is a candidate in a public election. As a candidate, he is subject to the same scrutiny as any other candidate whether he cares for it or not. Candidates are, and must be, subjects open to public discussion. 

Your blanking of Sam's Endorsements page came at a time when this very subject is being discussed here. Hopefully we are close to a compromise solution that allows editors to voice both support and opposition and point out justifications for each from the candidate's history without the insults and personal attacks. You should also be aware that there has from the beginning very strong community support for allowing both pro and con comments. This is an election after all. I've left additional comments for you here. 08:09, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
