Problems editing the page: insufficient permissions error

I edited the page and removed the stub notice. When I tried submitting my edits, I received an error telling me I lack the necessary permissions to edit pages in such a manner. So I copy pasted my edits, discarded my changes and went back to viewing the article, not editing it. I then went back into the editor and pasted my edits, *leaving the stub notice intact* and it still gave me the same error...

If someone can sort this out that would be great!

Here's the changes I would like to make to this page:
