Why is it telling me that I did not remove the TODOs?

I have removed the TODO comments as I added the code. However, the error message says that I forgot to remove the TODO entries. I would like to move on and see if there are other parts of the code to correct.

com/teamtreehouse/Main.java
// After you've completed the TODOs locally paste Main.java here
package com.teamtreehouse;

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
    // write your code here
        Prompter prompt = new Prompter();
        String story = "Thanks __name__ for helping me out.  You are really a __adjective__ __noun__ and I owe you a __noun__.";
        Template tmpl = new Template(story);
        prompt.run(tmpl);

    }
}

#  This is essentially what I am testing 
1.  The user is prompted for a new string template (the one with the double underscores in it).

  a. The prompter class has a new method that prompts for the story template, and that method is called.

2.  The user is then prompted for each word that has been double underscored.

   a. The answer is checked to see if it is contained in the censored words.
      User is continually prompted until they enter a valid word

3.  The user is presented with the completed story

OK, I found that I should remove the other TODO comments that were in the original. So, I have that done. I got this error message, though:

./com/teamtreehouse/Main.java:13: error: class Prompter is public, should be declared in a file named Prompter.java
public class Prompter {
       ^
JavaTester.java:7: error: cannot access Main
import com.teamtreehouse.Main;
                        ^
  bad source file: ./com/teamtreehouse/Main.java
    file does not contain class com.teamtreehouse.Main
    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the sourcepath.

Is there something that I should remove or add here?

JavaTester.java:7: error: cannot access Main
import com.teamtreehouse.Main;

It seems like "Main" got added to the end of the import statement somehow. Try deleting it and see if the fixes both the problems.
