Re: Carnage and Culture -- why submit a bare title and ask other Wikipedia editors to do the work for you? At least include a short description of the book, its year of publication, and a link to its Amazon listing. If it's left as just a title, it may get deleted for lack of content.

Because you're a registered user, there's nothing stopping you from writing the article yourself if you feel that the book is noteworthy and deserves an article. (Since there is already a long article on Victor Davis Hanson, I suspect that his books may well be noteworthy as well.) But there is no "editorial board" of Wikipedia that has made some decision that the Jared Diamond book gets an article and the Hanson one doesn't -- it's just a matter of who has taken the initiative to write the article. I note that Carnage and Culture is now tagged for speedy deletion (for lack of content), so if you want it kept, I urge you to expand it. Just go right in and edit. If you add substantial content, you may remove the speedy-delete notice. Hope this helps, NawlinWiki 18:48, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
