Defend Colorado Now
afd per Wikipedia is not a soapbox and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and probably for violating NPOV, hundreds of ballot initiatives are proposed, the number that even make it to the ballot is tiny, the number that actually get passed is even smaller, to include every posited ballot initiative on wikipedia would be ridiculious AdamJacobMuller 04:07, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per. However, I think that once state-level civil-rights related initiatives actually make it to the ballot, whether or not they are passed, rate an article - after voting has closed.  Rklawton 04:14, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

 * There is a Wikipedia article for the Proposition 200 initiative in Arizona, so the Defend Colorado Now entry could be viewed as a similar article. This initiative is particularly important as it is a current event related to the very topical illegal immigration debate that is occuring this year. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Angner (talk • contribs) 2006-03-27 00:39:25 EST  (UTC)
 * Can you please link us to this article, it does not show up as Proposition 200 initiative or Proposition 200 or any other permeutations of that that I tried AdamJacobMuller 08:59, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep The article is here: Arizona Proposition 200 (2004)  There is also an article for California Proposition 187 (1994).  Certainly, if this issue makes the ballot, it will be pretty notable.  While its true that many initiatives don't get on the ballot, this does have the backing of a former Democratic governor of the state and one of the state's Republican congressmen.  If it doesn't get on (it didn't get on in 2004), then I would say bring back the AfD.  Montco 04:41, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect with this phantom Proposition 200 article. And if none exists, then create it with this and any other info someone can find.  --Midnighttonight 09:57, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * merge with Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform. Or something in that vain.  --Midnighttonight 09:59, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * "If DCN supporters collect the required number of voter-registered signatures", then we'll recreate it. Meantime, delete - the.crazy.russian (T) (C) (E)  18:17, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete until it qualifies for the ballot. -Will Beback 06:19, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
