Colorado Rangers
Hi! I noticed you repeatedly inserted the Colorado Rangers as a special district on the Colorado article. I am actually intimately familiar with the Ranger history through research into their early activities and would welcome their more thorough inclusion on the state article. However, a cursory search revealed no reliable sourcing regarding their definition as a special district. Regardless of whether it is easily googled, you have to use a source to add information like that to an article. No one properly welcomed you to Wikipedia, so you likely were never sent you the useful link to FIVEPILLARS, a very handy resource for new editors. If you have questions or want help, please let me know. If you find a source on the Colorado Rangers special district, please add the info back to the article with the source. Thanks! ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:24, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm interested where you searched...

 * I'll work on a more thorough inclusion, It'll take a few weeks before I try to tackle that. I'm working on other edits.

 * Senate Bill 16-111 created a task force to study the Rangers, that task force recommended a new government structure. Multiple municipalities formed a new government (also know as a district) and moved the Rangers back into full law enforcement service. Senate bill 17-096 gave the new agency $800,000 to pay for police academies and stand up the agency.   I'll be updating quite a bit about them, and following them through the next legislative session as well.
 * If you have useful history, I'd love to know what you have. I'll be working on some of those updates as well.  I have quite a bit, so far. Chadclifford (talk) 05:41, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd love to help as I can. That directory of districts is very helpful but my goodness is it an extended list. If we're gonna feature the Rangers, I want to see if we can find something perhaps a little more narrowly focused on them. I'm sure there's something out there, and what you posted is a start! Thanks! I'll let you know about what I can do history-wise because most of my material is pre-1941. ~ Pbritti (talk) 06:40, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
