I wrote an article, and the website isn't letting me formally create it. Every time I hit submit, I get the word "Forbidden" in a red box. Why aren't I allowed to post?
Here's the article I've been trying to post for reference:

The '''original SCP-173 post''' is a 2007 4chan post that lead to the creation of the SCP Foundation.
==Background==
SCP-173 was a creepypasta posted to the /x/ forum of 4chan in 2007.<ref name=Wikipedia>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCP_Foundation</ref> The post described the procedures needed to safely contain a paranormal statue that could move and attack people when not looked at. The SCP Foundation, a popular writing website and creepypasta series, originated from the post.<ref name="Wikipedia"/>
==Availability==
4chan routinely deletes old posts, so the original SCP-173 was deleted soon after it was posted. The text and image used in the post were saved, and are currently available on the SCP Foundation’s Wikidot website. <ref> www.scp-wiki.net/scp-173</ref> However, many members of the SCP Community and fandom have sought out the original post or information about it.<ref>See: [https://www.reddit.com/r/SCP/comments/5fpjbl/anyone_have_a_link_to_the_original_thread_that/?st=jjdf4ujo&sh=4a5d77d0][https://www.reddit.com/r/SCP/comments/7ljipw/can_someone_get_me_the_original_x_thread_for_173/?st=jjdf6ttx&sh=c68e838b][https://www.reddit.com/r/SCP/comments/8gpt4k/does_scp173_actually_predate_the_weeping_angels/?st=jjdeu46h&sh=6ff1706e] </ref>Several searches have been made through numerous 4chan archives, but the original SCP-173 has not been found.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/SCP/comments/8gpt4k/does_scp173_actually_predate_the_weeping_angels/dye9zgn/?st=jjdfjya7&sh=66b9f36b</ref>
==What is known of the original post==
The oldest extant text of SCP-173 is from a forum post made on June 22, 2007 at 12:33 PM Greenwich Mean Time (or 8:33 AM Eastern Standard Time),<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180111021822/http://z6.invisionfree.com/DeadlandsFreeRunners/ar/t68.htm, live version with NSFW/NSFL images [http://z6.invisionfree.com/DeadlandsFreeRunners/ar/t68.htm]</ref> meaning the original post was made on or before June 22 of 2007.
