Please help me with... Created a new page on Paul Howard (artist curator). However, there appears to be a 'Permission Error'. 'The page name Paul Howard (Artist Curator) has been blacklisted from creation, because it contains multiple consecutive apostrophes (').' I have checked but I cannot find how to change the multiples on the page name.

Welcome to Wikipedia. The page is at Paul Howard (artist curator). See Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for how to arrange the references properly. Here are some other pages that you might find helpful:

Many thanks JohnCD, very helpful. Now I need to know how to un-orphan (or parent) the article.

If you can find references to this Paul Howard in any existing Wikipedia articles, replace Paul Howard with [[Paul Howard (artist curator)|Paul Howard]]. That will make a "piped link" to the article like this: Paul Howard, and it will no longer be an orphan. You can use the search box to look for "Paul Howard", but I am afraid there are quite a few of them. JohnCD (talk) 13:20, 8 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks again, John. I tried the 'piped link' method at first, but it was deleted by an Editor, who said that the page needs to be created first.
