Eagle Creek
Hi, I take it you are associated with the company Eagle Creek? First of all, please read about our conflict of interest guidelines. Then read about what Wikipedia is not, including the part about not being a place for you to advertise your company. Now. Your attempt at creating an article about your company by inserting text into an existing article about a creek was very bad form and has definitely got you started off on Wikipedia on the wrong foot and reflects poorly on your company. If your company is notable enough to merit an article, it would need to be disambiguated from the article about the creek (see Eagle Creek (disambiguation)). If you think you can write a neutrally worded, non-advertising, encyclopedic article about your company, contact me and I'll see about setting up the disambiguation. Note that any blatant attempts at advertising in the new article are likely to be speedily deleted. I suggest you read up on Wikipedia policy and guidelines (as outlined in the welcome message above) before you attempt editing again. Katr67 18:20, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
