I have a few links to my site throughout various sections of Wikipedia, and get tons of links from them. BUT... don't spam Wikipedia, only put your links in if they are relevant and contain information that is valuable to the readers. I had never thought about doing a "Company Page" as you suggested.. but I think I will now! Thanks for the great tip! Very good article, Wikipedia links are like gold for a website.

As an FYI: I've coined the phrase "wiki-trolls" to describe those people who patrol the pages. Not necessarily innovative, but oh-so-fitting. Oh, and on another note, I went to Starbucks this morning and they left room for cream--but I didn't ask for it. What if I didn't want to add cream? I'd feel a little cheated on that extra ounce or two of coffee. Bottomline: they just need to ask. Is that asking too much? End rant.
