[edit] Transwiki

This isn't worth transwikiing. Most of this is useless chaff as far as Wiktionary is concerned. See Wiktionary:Kevin, written from scratch. Uncle G 03:19, 2005 Mar 27 (UTC)

[edit] Alteration

I aagree entirely that the old material was entirely unsuitable. The article is now, as all first name articles should be, about a person or disambiguation of persons known only by the name. I.e. if there are twelve people known only as "Bob," then the article Bob should be a dab, not an "article" on the folk fancies of what "Bob" means. In this case, I could find only one "Kevin (no last name)," and that's the saint. (Saints grab most of the first name-only articles, I suppose.) Now there should be no more transwiki discussion.
