Okay. So point one under WP:NOTWEBHOST is the only one that could possibly be misinterpreted as applying in my case.Wait a minute!; Webhost, blog, social networking, etc. none of that crap applies to me, but I just noticed something nobody ever pointed out to me. Perhaps what I was doing was a Wiki! It says right there that "Wikis are... often used...for personal note taking..." So that's what I was doing wrong! Why didn't anyone tell me that? I just need to figure out how to take my notes outside of Wikipedia. I can plainly see now that what I was doing in my user space was in violation of Wikipedia's rules. I can only credit myself though for discovering what I did wrong, since nobody really pointed it out to me and I had to struggle on my own to figure out the problem. Now I have to figure out how to get the required software on my computer so I can continue to do my thing unhassled. Thank you for the challenging exercises in futility CyclOpia. I finally got it.
