I thought this article was going to be about Chief Information Officers. Question, then: at what names shall we put this article, the article about Chief Information Officers, and what should reside at "CIO"? Notice, "CIO" is also the name of a magazine. Cf. also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIO What do you think? --Larry Sanger 10:38, 1 May 2007 (CDT)

CIO is the common name for 70 years of one of the largest and best known organizations in American history. I think we can disambiguate when we have another article with similar title. Note that Wiki at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIO does a TERRIBLE job on disambiguation here (the union is listed twice, both incorrectly, and AFL-CIO is missed); this list lacks a meaningful order. And they miss Comité International Olympique . Richard Jensen 12:59, 1 May 2007 (CDT)

At first blush, this article is looking pretty good... any thoughts on moving towards approval? Stephen Saletta 21:59, 17 April 2008 (CDT)
