Depends on your role and if a workflow has been configured for your Pages library:

A: Start a workflow to get the page approved: Click the Publish tab in the page's ribbon, click Submit, click Submit, fill out the form.

B: Click the Publish tab in the page's ribbon, click Submit and Publish
or: Go to the Pages library (Site Actions, View All Site Content, Pages), click the document's dropdown menu and click Publish
or: checkmark the document and in the Documents ribbon, click Publish

A page goes thorugh these messages when edited:

Status: Checked out and editable.  Publication Start Date: Immediately  

Status: Checked in and viewable by authorized users.  Publication Start Date: Immediately

But after click Publish Tab and Publish, this message should disappear, isn't it so? (also when the administrator is logged  on)

Hi keren,

I understand that you want to hide/remove the status bar, then

1.Open your site in SharePoint Designer 2010

2.Open your default master page found in All Files->_catalogs->master page, often times this will be v4.master

3.Look for the following lines of html:
<div class=”s4-notdlg”>
    <div id=”s4-statusbarcontainer” class=”s4-notdlg”>
        <div id=”pageStatusBar” class=”s4-status-s1″>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

4.Just above this block of code, add the following:
 <style type=”text/css”>
      #pageStatusBar {
           display: none !important;
      }
 </style>

5.Save and publish the master page.
