[edit] Username
Note that you can't "move" a user page, because your user name is still "Smith lucas" (if I post anything at User talk:Smith Lucas, you won't get a "new message" notification). Usually, you would contact Wikipedia:Changing username to request changing your user to Smith Lucas, however since your account has relatively few contributions, it is better if you create a new account, Smith Lucas (with the proper case), and login and edit with it instead of "Smith lucas". Feel free to move this talk to User talk:Smith Lucas after you have created that account, and to restore the redirect here. -- ReyBrujo 01:27, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Book
Regarding your book, the main problem is that you should put references to prove the notability of the book, in other words, why the book should have a Wikipedia page. Try to find notable third party references talking about the book, in example, BBC, CNN, eWeek, New York Times, Washington Post, Financial Times, The Times, etc, etc, etc. The reference you added is not enough to keep the article here. You must understand that there must be a way for casual readers to verify the information here (they should be able to confirm the information). An article can read "The book is one of the most important ever written in history.", but the casual user (and other readers) may say "Who determined the book is so important? The editor?" However, another sentence "According to the BBC (www.bbc.co.uk/book/important.html), the book is one of the most important ever written in history" is different, because the user can check the link and confirm if the BBC indeed said the book was so important. It is not necessary to have a link to a URL, you can cite a newspaper, a TV program or another book. Of course, you can't use the same book as reference ("The book is one of the most important ever written in history (same book, page 10, paragraph 3.") because it is not objective. So, try to find professional reviews (not customer reviews in Amazon or Buy.com) and add that information to the article.
As for the category, I am not really good at categorizing. I will put it into the books category, but someone else will come later and better categorize it. -- ReyBrujo 01:27, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Hiya :-)
You had me worried there with your first comment - I'm new to WP myself, so thought I'd messed something up. Nice to know I haven't made any enemies just yet :-) Happy editing !
By the way - for future reference, if you want to leave messages, you should use the User talk page (like this one) - and not edit users home pages - easy mistake to make :-) CultureDrone 12:17, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notability of Colmado Scarlette
A tag has been placed on Colmado Scarlette requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy
deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without
delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't
hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the
subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Accurizer (talk) 03:09, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] May 2009
Hi Smith lucas, please don't "delete" pages as you did here. If you feel that a redirect points to the wrong place, discuss it - but don't blank a perfectly valid article page. In the event, it would appear that a colmado does fit the loose definition of a general or corner store, judging by the rather weak article in place before the redirect was made. But in any case, these are issues to be discussed on talk pages, not by blanking good articles. Regards. Franamax (talk) 04:05, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
