From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of requested articles about the U.S. State of Colorado.

How to request a new Colorado article

1. First, check that the article you're looking for doesn't already exist:

  • Search Wikipedia (or use a search engine) for existing articles. If an article exists, but not at the title you expected, you can create a redirect.
  • Check your spelling.
  • Articles generally use the most common name for the subject. This may not be the official name, scientific name, or another name you have in mind.

2. Next, be sure the article is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Articles must be about notable topics: those that have received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. We have a fairly precise definition of what is considered a "reliable source", as well as detailed inclusion guidelines.

3. Next, search existing article requests to make sure your subject is not already listed:

4. Add your request for a new Colorado article to the appropriate section shown below.

See Wikipedia:WikiProject Colorado/2020 Census for 2020 United States Census results.
