Are you sure you cannot edit? I ask because I do not see any autoblocks or rangeblocks that prevent you from editing. –MuZemike 01:14, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

I am still learning my way around but it seems that no matter what I do, I get the same answer that I am blocked. I have tried a few times to move the article I created from my user space but no matter what I do it won’t work.  I also see a message that says that my user name and IP are not blocked, but at the same time I can’t move my article. I am confused.  


 * First, let's hold off on moving your article anyway - I see no notability established, and it's not adhering to our manual of style at the moment. You would be better off adding helpme to your usertalk to get some help, or move it to the article incubator.  It also does not meet our naming conventions, so there's a few issues to be concerned about.  ( talk→   BWilkins   ←track ) 09:24, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

helpme Hello and thank you for your response and suggestions. Please forgive my requests as I have seen that it has been noted that I may have mistakenly “abused” unblocking requests, but please note that this is not my intention, and any “abuse” on my part has been an honest mistake, and is clearly not my intent. Also, how is it that notability of my article has not been established? I am confused as Arthur Morgan has been noted as one of Americas greatest sculptors in numerous articles, as well as notation that his work can be found at the U.S. Capital, among many other notable Louisiana landmarks. He is an integral piece of Louisiana history. Apparently I have done something wrong that I have no knowledge of. Please advise me as to how I should proceed from here.


 * Ok, I moved it into articlespace, but you will need to do a lot of work with this ... you should have a good read of the manual of style for articles, and especially understand WP:CITE. You will find it at Arthur C. Morgan where others can also work on repairing/editing it. ( talk→   BWilkins   ←track ) 21:45, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

help me Thank you again for your help and suggestions. I am waiting on the arrival of a book that will help me with Wikipedia. Please note that I have made every effort to follow Wikipedia guidelines and the article that I am trying to submit is (sadly) my best effort. I will follow your suggestions re: manual of style and thank you again for all of your help and suggestions. I am most certain that with all of the help that you have given me in addition to my continued efforts on this article that we will figure everything out. Again, thank you for your help and suggestions. Should I always put the "help me" for each time I respond? Thank you again for your patience.

welcome

I can’t thank you enough for your help. Please be assured that I will put my heart and soul into making this article the best it can be and openly welcome any and all questions, suggestions and edits. Also, I have some photographs that would be great additions to the article but maybe I should hold off on that for now? In addition, I have countless other resources/sources that were used for this article. So if documenting my sources is ever an issue I can account for everything stated in the article. Oh how exciting!Rochon Laverdet Tugwell 22:33, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
