• Delete - I tried to find an archived link for that colarado springs business journal link on wayback machine and in the csbj's own archives, but failed. I agree with the source review that the other references are passing, promotional or not-independent. --Spacepine (talk) 05:10, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
