RE: Ken Buck

Hi ! Concerning this subject, political candidates are normally not considered appropriate for an article in Wikipedia unless they 1) win the election or 2) have received non-routine coverage - see WP:POLITICIAN for details. If he's received non-trivial mention in national newspapers/media, he is likely notable per the general notability guideline - WP:GNG. If you create the article at User:CoPolWikiLvr/Ken Buck, then I'll review it once it's finished and inform you whether it would be suitable to move into the mainspace. Thanks.

Thanks for your help -- I hope this is the proper format for responding. I started the page and hope to add more soon. I think Buck does meet the criteria for politicians on wikipedia, along with the 3 others in the senate race. I'll try and do more today; if not it will be in the next few.
