Barnstar[edit]

To Kevin for his tireless battle against the scourge of linkspam and excessive external links. -- Moondyne 05:42, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin, Thankyou for your hard and thankless efforts in trying to clean up the rubbish others have left lying around. I wanted to make sure that you know you're not alone in the battle. Keep up the good work. Regards -- Moondyne 05:42, 18 October 2006 (UTC) [reply]

Fair use[edit]

Hi Kevin, this is with regard to your message of a long, long time ago. I was on extended wikibreak and have got back just now. I hope I have now remedied the situation; please have a look at User:ImpuMozhi/Album and confirm. I am very sorry for the delay, and I wish you had e-mailed me! Please do so in future. Regards, ImpuMozhi 02:27, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanx for the heads up and for the internal linking. It does look better. Regards, ImpuMozhi 04:27, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kevin[edit]

Hi Kevin

Clerk for Requests for Checkuser[edit]

Hey Kevin Breitenstein,

I am messaging you to ask whether you would be interested in reassuming your role as a Request for Checkuser clerk. Currently, the clerk duties are being shared among three experienced clerks, and we have added two new clerks, who are currently in the learning stage. We are currently experiencing backlogs and long waiting times for some actions to occur.

As you are currently listed under "inactive" on our clerk roster, we're asking that if you are willing to resume these clerk activities, please leave a message on my user talk page (quick link). A number of things have changed, so we reccommend re-reading Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks/Guide. The guide is currently being rewritten, but the new and updated version should be available by 00:00 December 12, 2006 (UTC) at the latest.

If you aren't interested in being a checkuser clerk any longer, we accept your decision and thank you for your service; it would be greatly appreciated if you'd leave me a note that you're no longer interested. If you would like to resume your role in the future, but can't do so now, please mention so on my talk page, and I'll note this on our clerk register.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Daniel.Bryant T · C ], Head Clerk, for Essjay (talk), 05:11, 11 December 2006 (UTC) [reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:AA bird logo.png)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:AA bird logo.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 04:25, 2 January 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:IBM logo.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:IBM logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Spammy[edit]

Hi Kevin, I am unclear with regards to the comments you made as being spammy. We have removed all reference to companies that currently offer these types of products. What else are you recommending? I feel that the public needs to know that home tests exist.--Desaderal 18:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC) [reply]

RecentChangesLinked[edit]

Hello Kevin. I know you're on a long Wikibreak, but since you posted to WT:WPSPAM, I thought you might be around enough for a quick question.

In your post there, you mentioned the Special:Recentchangeslinked page. I hadn't come across that before, and when I pulled it up it was not immediately clear how to use it. Do you know where any instructions or guidance for its use are located? Thanks for your time, Satori Son 14:26, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, you tagged Maritz Inc. for WP:PROD and I deleted it. Now someone has made a request for the article to be restored so I have done that and de-prodded it. You are welcome to bring the article to WP:AFD. —Wknight94 (talk) 00:40, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message. I'm currently in the process of expanding this page, I didn't realize you shouldn't save the page before this, but at WP:Biography it says paste the Biography template and save the page, so that's what I did. I obviously got something wrong. I'm sorry and won't do that again. I think I'll work off-line next time. Please note that I saved the page again to answer your message, so it's still not very long yet. Thanks.Rosenknospe 08:08, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't worry either. I just don't want to create more mess than already exists, so I appreciate when people tell me if I do. I can be clumsy, but I'm willing to help ;D Thank you for the information and advice you give me, it's useful. Have a nice day.Rosenknospe 08:51, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nobel Prize Image[edit]

Hi Kevin! I believe your input would be very valuable and much appreciated in this discussion concerning the use of this image [1] (which is my own work). So, if you could sacrifice a few minutes, it might help considerably. Thank you in advance. Best, aNubiSIII (T / C) 04:11, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
