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

Other Noteworthy Stuff
A new database report lists people categorized as dead in Wikipedia, but lacking Property:P570 (date of death). It's updated several times during the day. There are about 20 to 30 new entries each day. There is currently some backlog from the Arabic, Marathi, and Thai Wikipedias. Items updated first in Wikidata wont appear in the report. They are listed directly in Wikidata's recent deaths report.

On 10 July 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Jan-Erik Olsson, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that early in his criminal career, Swedish bank robber Jan-Erik Olsson attempted to break Clark Olofsson out of jail, but failed to do so because of a dynamite malfunction? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Jan-Erik Olsson. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

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. (t) Josve05a (c)20:30, 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. (t) Josve05a (c)21:05, 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)

"How long will this take?" This is one of the first questions new clients ask. They come to us because the Wikipedia entry about the company at which they work is wrong, incomplete, or even just outdated. The answer varies ...
