Please help me. I have also asked for help on this page: Talk:Soundwalk (Schafer method)

Please help me. I need advice. I have been trying to sort out the term/article/topic "soundwalk." I am interested in the artist/media company in New York, called [Soundwalk (audio tours)|Soundwalk], that creates audio guides called soundwalks. This page is an orphan with no references, and it is called Soundwalk. I moved it, but it still re-directs from Soundwalk. I changed the page Soundwalk (audio tours), so now it is about everything the company does, not just a description of their audio tours.

My questions. Can someone remove the redirect to this page from Soundwalk? Can I change the name of "Soundwalk (audio tours)" to "Soundwalk"? Should I create a disambiguation page for just two pages? Should this orphan be deleted?

In short, what is the best way to make the information available? Soundwalk is a company and an empirical method. The company and method are not the same or related in history in any way. I want users to be able to find, easily, which one they are interested in. I want users to be able to tell that the method and the company are not in any way related. And I don't want the empirical method Soundwalk to be higher or easier to find on search engines that the company. Please respond here, on [JenniferEBurwell|my user page], or on [Soundwalk (audio tours)] talk page. Thanks JenniferEBurwell (talk) 15:44, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your reply and for the disambiguation page. As for your mention of the conflict of interest. . .I will let you decide. I will stop editing this page if you believe there is a conflict of interest.

I AM updating the page at the company's request. I am NOT being paid or otherwise benefiting except for the experience of learning how to edit on Wikipedia. I am being careful to cite all my sources and to remain neutral. This is actually easy because I know nothing about the company except that a friend of mine works there, so I am learning as I go. I am using their website as a place to start, but most of my sources are the NY Times. I am also using the "Press" section of their website as a place to look for more sources. The company definitely has goals that conflict with the spirit of Wikipedia (i.e., advertising, representing their company on search engines, etc.). However, I believe there is some valid information here, and I am trying to present it as such.

I am an out-of-work writer, recently graduated, and I am doing this to "pad" my resume. However, in the interest of disclosure, I have been asking them if they "like" what I wrote, and if the information is correct.

What do you think?
