I always find this stuff interesting, but sometimes little rules change from one election.season to another, so you have to look them up each time,and each state has their own guidelines. Here are the FAQs. #13 directly answers your question though. You'll want to read 11 & 12 for some definition.

13. How many delegates does Wyoming send to the Democratic National Convention?
Wyoming will be sending 18 delegates and 2 alternates. 8 are District-Level delegates, 4 are unpledged party Leaders and elected officials, 2 are PLEOs, 4 are At-Large delegates with 2 alternates.
