List of private schools in Colorado by County and School District has been completed. Request for review and move from my user space is in order, by anyone interested. A response on this page would be appreciated.  O = M C 4  14:59, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Orschstaffer has been indefinitely blocked for promotional activities. It appears this contribution can easily be edited to remove the promotional portion. There is precedent for such lists on Wikipedia. Does anyone consider this to be potentially useful. ~KvnG 15:37, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Hello. Hoping for help rescuing Helen Klanderud, the former Mayor of Aspen, from deletion. Additional sources would be helpful and appreciated. Thank you! Scanlan (talk) 02:25, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi! I'm currently drafting Draft:Elope (business) and have submitted it for review. The AfC seems pretty clogged right now, but could anyone interested take a look over it? Thanks! Omnitaus (talk) 17:33, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
