Hi My personal page I wrote on myself has been declined due to copywrite. I have not copied any other persons work -can you please point out what exactly it is you dont like so that I can change it or remove it as I don't know. As for the connection to Fine Arts America - it is my own profile on Fine Arts America as well and written by myself, the same as on my website and Saachi gallery ect. As an artist - the information remains the same. Any help will be appreciated Kind Regards Laetitia de Chazal

Please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials!, the problem was that you had text copied (maybe written by you, perhaps by someone else, I don't know) from another website.

This is a page I am developing on one of my own subpages. Why don't you leave it alone until I decide to create the page. Of course it has multiple issues because I haven't had time to develop the article yet in my own subpage. Leave me be please. There are no copyright issues. The only info on the page is web addresses and clearly verifiable information Jodosma (talk) 19:26, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Jodosma: It is not in your userspace, but in main(article)space. FOr it to be in your userspace, the title needs to begin with User:YOUR_USERNAME/, currently it is missing the User:-part. I've moved it to your userspace now, for you to continue edit it. It is located here: User:Jodosma/Jane Straus and the link to the old location will be deleted, sicne we shouldn't have redirect across the different mainspaces.

(An old-time editor like you should know this... (tJosve05a (c) 20:32, 13 July 2015 (UTC))
I have several subpages and don't recall putting "User" in front of any of them. Jodosma (talk) 20:39, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
@Jodosma: You have 9 subpages. User:Jodosma/BA, User:Jodosma/David Kurtz, User:Jodosma/HTML, User:Jodosma/Jane Straus, User:Jodosma/MSc, User:Jodosma/Template:Pontefract, User:Jodosma/example, User:Jodosma/sandbox and User:Jodosma/tables. 20:42, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
I know that. I also know that I didn't put "user" in front of them when I created them and when I look at the list of subpages at the bottom of my contributions page none of the pages start with "User" as you may easily verify. Perhaps there has been another change in the software? Jodosma (talk) 20:52, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
If you didn't then some tool did it, or you have forgotten. THose which does not have a User-prefix are not subpages, those are in mainspace. Has always been this. Please see Wikipedia:User subpage. (tJosve05a (c) 21:05, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
@Jodosma: Special:PrefixIndex/User:Jodosma/ displays the namespace "User" in the "Namespace" box and omits it in the listed page names but if you click them then you can see they do indeed start with "User:". You created the page Jodosma/Jane Straus without "User:" in front so it was a live article. It has since been moved to a user subpage User:Jodosma/Jane Straus, and the automatic redirect from the move has been deleted. PrimeHunter (talk) 21:15, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
@PrimeHunter: Oh dear, what a mess. Perhaps I should refresh my brain. Why have I never received similar messages before? In the meantime @Josve05a:, I'm not so old, only 66 not 696! Jodosma (talk) 21:26, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
@Jodosma: I don't know whether you have made incorrect mainspace creations before recently. The page histories show some of your user subpages were correctly created where they are. User:Jodosma/BA was created in the template namespace at Template:User Jodosma BA before being moved. User:Jodosma/MSc was created at Template:User Jodosma MSc. It's allowed to create userboxes in template space but then your username shouldn't be in the template name, and the content should correspond to the name without just saying "BA" or "MSc" for a userbox about a specific institution. At their current names in your userspace it's OK. PrimeHunter (talk) 21:45, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
