User talk:Kjkolb

'''Hello, Wikipedia reader and/or contributor. I do not edit everyday, so I may not get back to you for a while after you leave a message here this. If you have something that you want to email me, please leave a message on this talk page to let me know that you have sent it. Please save anything that you send me in case my spam filter auto-cleans itself before I can read it. When I do edit or read Wikipedia, it is usually in the evening or late night in the Pacific Standard Time Zone, which is eight hours behind Greenwich Mean Time.

Welcome to my talk page. Please feel free to leave me a message. If I have upset or offended you, it was probably unintentional. I usually go out of my way to be nice, but electronic communication can make one's intentions seem hostile, even when they aren't. Also, even if it seems like I am getting upset about something, I'm almost certainly not. I just try to make my arguments easy to understand and persausive. I don't take things too seriously and I'm able to be friends with people I disagree with. If you have a suggestion on how I can improve my contributions or you think I've made an error, please let me know. When I use words like "some", "they", "them" and "people", please do not assume that I am including you or another person in that, possibly unsavory, group unless it is very clear that that is my intention. I usually use those words in the generic sense. Before you leave a message on someone's talk page, you should always remember to assume good faith unless you have very good reason to think otherwise because it is unlikely that they are acting out of malice:

Answers, in order of decreasing probability, to the question, "Why did that editor do, or fail to do, that?"
 * Ignorance → Accident/Mistake/Miscommunication → Alternative editing style → Malice

You do not need my permission to revert or modify my edits to an article, even if I created it. Just do it and leave a good description in the edit summary or on the talk page. If you think it is something that I would want to know about, you can let me know afterward on my talk page. Also, I do not keep the pages I create on my watchlist for very long because it gets too full and seems territorial, so I am unlikely to know when they are changed. If one has a problem or is nominated for deletion, I would appreciate it if you let me know. If there is no response to one of my posts on a talk page after one to three weeks, I also remove it from my watchlist. I sometimes remove talk pages immediately if I think the conversation has concluded, so let me know on my talk page if I do not respond. Thanks

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.Thank you for your past contributions to the project. —&thinsp;JJMC89 bot 00:33, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
