			I have a couple of questions for anyone who might notice them:
	== Historical References ==
			# Am I allowed to use my talk page to discuss matters related to my ban, civilly of course, or will that be used as justification to turn off my talk page privileges?
	=== Historical Back Pointers ===
			# May I request that all of the pages under my user space be deleted, except for my talk page which cannot be according to policy?
	Rather than create archive pages which use up additional space I have decided to instead keep a list of back pointers to permanent links within the history of this talk page at various points in time.

	== A Hint ==

	Don't repost there. If further steps are needed, go to a neutral venue or ask a neutral party to mediate (probably best to find somebody besides me). Cheers, ] <sup>]</sup> 15:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
	: OK, thanks. I don't know why this should be a sensitive topic. Either he considers us involved, or not. I believe that he considers us uninvolved based on his comments at Trusilver's talk page but I just want to know where we stand. I don't even care which way he answers, I just want something on record to avoid arguing about it later if the topic ever comes up again. Ironically, he recently told me that if I have an issue with someone the first place to go is to their talk page. So, I took his advice. --] (]) 16:10, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
	:: Do you have a suggestion for what an appropriate venue might be? I ask because I feel as though I need to walk on egg shells sometimes even for a straight forward question such as this. I don't want to make waves here, I just want an answer that will stick. --] (]) 16:15, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

	== ] ==

	At this point, I feel that greater community input concerning your editing history and the concerns of others is needed. I have started a discussion here. Your input would be appreciated. Thanks. ] 01:13, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

	=== Discussion of the points raised ===

	I have no reason whatsoever to doubt Trusilver's good faith, so I must admit to being somewhat surprised by some of his characterizations of the edits he provides. So let me seek input on them one at a time.

	==== First diff ====
	The background on this edit is as follows:
	# Some time back Atmoz had indicated on his talk page that he was withdrawing from climate change topics ( is the edit where I was made aware of it),
	# A new process was proposed at the page,
	# Atmoz made that would have been covered by that new process,
	# An editor complained and what they felt was a personal attack and ,
	# I made a neutral comment , and
	# I followed up with a on his talk page to make sure he was aware of the new policy since I thought there might be a reasonable probability that he hadn't seen it previously.
	So I was honestly trying to be helpful in terms of making sure Atmoz was aware of what was happening at the Climate Change RfE. I didn't prod him, I didn't take sides, I simply provided him information he might need to know. I had no way to know that he didn't care about the probation policy discussion, but once he made that clear I didn't bother him further. So please help me understand how this is harassment, when I have been told that things are no big deal? --] (]) 02:43, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

	== Notification ==

	I just want to make a statement at ]. I just stumbled across the discussion scanned some of it and want to make a statement. Good luck '''] ]''' 02:30, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

	== Essay ==

	How you should proceed depends on your ideas. The wiki page on essays says that you can write about almost anything related to Misplaced Pages, as long as the essay does not undermine Misplaced Pages.

	You just choose a title (say Title of My Essay) and then construct this link:

	http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Title_of_My_Essay

	You click on the link and then you get the message:

	"Misplaced Pages does not have a project page with this exact name.
	Start the Misplaced Pages:Title of My Essay page...."

	And then you click on "Start the Misplaced Pages page..."

	For your essay to be listed properly, you have to start it like:

	<nowiki>

	{{essay}}

	</nowiki>

	<nowiki>
	{{nutshell\|Abstract of essay}}

	</nowiki>

	<nowiki>

	==Section 1==

	</nowiki>

	etc.

I have a couple of questions for anyone who might notice them:

Am I allowed to use my talk page to discuss matters related to my ban, civilly of course, or will that be used as justification to turn off my talk page privileges?
May I request that all of the pages under my user space be deleted, except for my talk page which cannot be according to policy?
