Oregon, Pacific and Eastern Railway
Hey Bob, thanks for your efforts to add info to the Emperor of the North Pole article, but the info about who owns the company (you?) isn't really relevant to the article about the film and it is already in the article about the railroad. Also, since you appear to be the owner, I'm not sure Wikipedia rules allow us to use you as a source. Let me know if you need help with citations, and don't forget to use show preview and edit summaries to help the rest of us out. I know your edits are in good faith, but be sure to read about conflict of interest. Thanks and happy editing! Katr67 19:25, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Communication
Hi Mr. Larson. Thanks for updating the information about your railroad. It would be helpful, however, if you would make sure your edits are in line with our manual of style and other content guidelines. Unfortunately, I've had to clean up several of your edits for stylistic reasons and also because some of them are of a self-promotional nature. I've asked you to communicate with us before but you haven't made a single post on a talk page or a user talk page. I invite you to discuss your edits because Wikipedia is a community that works on consensus. I believe you are acting in good faith, but we're not here to provide free advertising space for your company. Our guidelines about original research also mean that though you are the president of the company, unfortunately we can't take your word for things. It would be nice if you could provide some reliable outside sources for your information. I invite you to read up on the guidelines I have provided in the links in this post, and then contact me, WikiProject Oregon or the Trains WikiProject if you have any questions. Thanks!
