Welcome!
Hello, Tubbs Studio, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Art History, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.
You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.

- Hi. I'm a volunteer administrator and part of my duties involve patrolling the new pages log and deleting vandalism, or in this case, a copyright violation. As such, I have the ability to delete content. Even if you are who you claim to be (and I don't doubt you), you can't post copyrighted material to this site since it simply isn't compatible with this site's free documentation license. To be able to post something from the university in this fasion,it would first have to be released to this site's license...and therefore into the public domain,which I never recommend doing. The best way to write about the organization is to do so in your own words. This protects the university's copyright while giving us a great new article on a notable subject. I have to delete the current version (if it hasn't already been done), but do feel free to recreate it from that point in your own words. I hope this clears things up.
