Although this is not a universal rule, it is usually assumed that pages without “User:” at the beginning are open for anyone to edit, but pages beginning with “User:” are only edited by the user who authored them.
As a general rule, most users expect their {{w|WP:UP|user space}} to be edited only by themselves, except for {{w|WP:ME|minor edits}} (e.g. maintenance), undoing obviously harmful edits such as vandalism or {{w|s=wp|disruptive editing}}, and {{w|s=wp|user talk pages}}.


However by including this message box, the author of this user space page has indicated that this page is open to contributions from others.
