Gold upgrades when and how
When and how do upgrades for Golds happen ?
Any way to make sure they do ?
Where to check if you were upgraded ?
Is a reservation enough for an upgrade or does the ticket have to be issued ?

You can check on either airlines web site to verify and upgrade

For NWA it's whenever they get around to it but typically further out than 72hrs
For CO they typically hold the seats back so it's about 15 mins before pushback
