Robert Garcia (politician)
Greetings -- responding to the e-mail you sent me yesterday regarding the article on User:Dbrezenoff/Robert_Garcia,_politician that you wrote in your user space. There's no real reason the article has not been "published" -- you can do that part yourself. If you are comfortable with the way it looks -- and since it is a biography of a living person, you have to be extremely careful to source everything correctly -- you may move it into the mainspace. Just use the "move page" link, or alternatively just copy and paste from the edit box into a redlink like the one below. Since there are other Robert Garcias, including Robert García to which Robert Garcia (politician) already redirects, you might want to try Robert Garcia (California politician) or something like it. Usually Wikipedia has the descriptor in parentheses, e.g. "Robert Garcia (musician)", "Robert Garcia (boxer)" etc. I read the article, but not extremely carefully; it looks good to me. Don't forget to add some links to it from other articles, and check this list of links to see if any of them are your man (fixing redirects as necessary).

 * Greetings again. Here's the steps for how to do it, presuming you are happy with the page as it currently is.  (I think clicking the redlink and pasting the page is a better idea than the page move, since then we'd have to clean up a redirect.)


 * Open this page in a new window and click "edit": User:Dbrezenoff/Robert_Garcia,_politician (alternatively, just click here which does it for you)
 * click in the edit box and select all (ctrl-a on a PC or option-a on a Mac)
 * copy (ctrl-c or equivalent)
 * click on Robert Garcia (California politician), which should bring up an edit box for the new article
 * paste into this edit box
 * Save page. You have now published the Robert Garcia page.  Once you have done it, it's a good idea to make some links to it from other articles (Long Beach? etc.)
