[edit] Spam

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

I have reviewed your external links and kept them, as I think they are useful. However, please bear in mind the warning above. Please note also you inserted broken links, missing out the "artist/" code in the middle of the link. It would be helpful if you could add to artists biographies, not just add promotional material for your gallery.
You may have thought you were starting an article on the gallery at User:Kerlin Gallery, but this is just a user page, not an article. I have started an article at Kerlin Gallery. Judicious additions to this article would be useful, but please study policies on writing articles.

[edit] User name

Wikipedia doesn't allow user names of companies, so I must ask you to change your user name. This can be done at Wikipedia:Changing username, which will preserve your edit history. Alternatively you can just sign up with a new name, and the current name will be blocked from editing. You can find the policy on this at Wikipedia:Username. I apologise for not mentioning this earlier. Please let me know your decision on this, either here or on User talk:Tyrenius. Thanks. Tyrenius 13:03, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Please respond to the above message or else if you edit again, this user name will be blocked. Thank you. Tyrenius 17:26, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

You must be logged into make a username change request. You can not do it not logged in, as you did here and here. I have unblocked User:Kerlin Gallery specifically so this can be done by that account while it is logged in. --Durin 12:47, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
