User talk:(WT-en) Aww

Hi Aww. Thanks for your contribution to the Taoyuan County article. I'm sorry that I keep changing your edits, but because the the Tongyong Pinyin spelling is more common in Taiwan and is the preferred spelling system for street signs, I think it better to adopt this as a standard. See: Taoyuan County. However, I have added a redirect from other popular spellings for the names of towns. I hope that is ok with you. Thanks a lot. (WT-en) WindHorse 10 April 06

Shimo practice page

Setagaya (世田谷) is in western Tokyo, and is the largest of the city's 23 wards.

Understand
Setagaya has a reputation as an upscale residential district, and features many areas of greenery. The funky shopping and nightlife area of Shimokitazawa (下北沢), popular with students and young adults, is also located in Setagaya. The Sangenjaya (三軒茶屋) shopping district is also in Setagaya.

Get in
Shimokitazawa is on the Odakyu and Keio Inokashira train lines, just a quick hop from Shinjuku and Shibuya respectively. Most of the action is around the South Exit.

Sangenjaya is on the Tokyu Den-en-Toshi train line from Shibuya.

Komazawa-Daigaku is on the Tokyu Den-en-Toshi train line and near Sangenjaya. Komazawa University is a few minutes from the station.

By train
The main train lines serving Setagaya are the Odakyu from Shinjuku to Odawara and the Keio Inokashira, Tokyu Toyoko, and Tokyu Denentoshi, all originating in Shibuya. Since all of these lines run generally westward from hubs on the Yamanote line, it can be somewhat difficult to travel north-south without going in to a hub and back out.

The Tokyu Setagaya line between Sangenjaya and Shimo-takaido is one of only two remaining streetcar lines in Tokyo.

See

 * Carrot Tower (キャロットタワー). Located in Sangenjaya, this is the tallest building in Setagaya and contains a free observation deck on the 26th floor.
 * Gotokuji temple (豪徳寺) is the origin of the maneki-neko or beckoning-cat statuettes that bring good fortune to Japanese merchants the world over. Gotokuji station is on the odakyu line. However, the temple is also a short walk from Miyanozaka on the Setagaya line.
 * Kinuta Koen (砧公園） is a public park with a museum of modern art.
 * Komazawa Olympic Koen is a large public park, built for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. It is about a 15-minute walk from Komazawa-Daigaku station, on the Tokyu Den-en-Toshi train line.
 * Setagaya Art Museum houses works by artists from the Primitivist School, such as Henri Rousseau. 17-minute walk from Yoga Station on the Den-en Toshi Line.
 * Tamagawa Daishi (玉川大師) is a Buddhist temple, and a branch of Kawasaki Daishi. It isn't very large and the location is in a nondescript residential area, but its curious attraction is hidden: an underground passageway that snakes its way under the building. There are statues and altars with lighting at various points, but much of the tunnel is in absolute darkness. It symbolizes a passage through the intestines of the Buddha (better not to dwell too much on the symbolism!) while the 88 Buddha statues in one of the chambers also symbolize the famous 88 Temple Pilgrimage in Shikoku. To get to Tamagawa Daishi, get off at Futako-Tamagawa on the Tokyu Den-en-Toshi Line (from Shibuya), and walk 10 minutes along the highway from Takashimaya department store.
 * Todoroki Keikoku is a natural canyon nestled in urban surroundings. With a small river and lush vegetation, it offers a pleasant natural environment. Todoroki station is on the Tokyu Ooimachi line.
 * Setagaya Koen is a public park with a pool, tennis court, baseball ground and so on. Ikeziri 1-5-27.

Do

 * Tollywood, Daizawa 5-32-5 2F (Three minutes from Shimokitazawa south exit), 03-3414-0433, . This small theater (46 seats) specializes in independent short films, mostly Japanese. The films aren't dubbed or subtitled of course, but they're so offbeat and often bizarre that you're sure to have a good time anyway.
 * Okuraland, Sakura 3-24-1,　03-3420-0271. 15 minutes from Kamimachi station of Tokyu-Setagaya line. Here you can go bowling or practice your golf swing. There are also batting cages.

Buy

 * Shimokitazawa has many quirky shops.
 * Ex shop sells artistic designed stuff like photo stands, postcards, clocks, accessories and so on.
 * Yellow Pop shop carries an eclectic and well-stocked inventory of vinyl including punk, reggae, electronic, and hip-hop.

 * The Setagaya Boro-Ichi (世田谷ボロ市) is a flea market that's held on the 15th and 16th of December and January each year. It's been drawing shoppers from all over Tokyo since it started in 1578. The main attraction is used clothing (such as kimonos) and antiques. Take the Setagaya line to Setagaya or Kamimachi and follow the crowds.

 * Dept is a good spot for used men's and women's clothes.
 * vintage and original brand clothes shop.

 * There are vintage clothes for girl.

There interior decorations are very cute.

Eat
Shimokitazawa is your best option for restaurants and bars.

 * BOTERO, Komazawa 1-17-17, 03-3410-5922. Regular holiday is Tuesday
 * Cheese Cake Factory, 〒158-0097 Yo-ga 4-28-18, 03-5716-5401, 10AM-8PM. Just what it says: it's a cheese cake shop.
 * Hawaiian food restaurant near Komazawa Station.
 * KURA,　KURA is at Yutenji, and other is at Gotanda, Shibuya, Nakameguro, and Yotsuka-ichi-shi. This is an Italian restaurant - pasta, risotto, pizza, etc. All menu items are very inexpensive.
 * La Befana, 5-31-3 Daita (30 seconds walk from Shimokitazawa West Exit), 03-3411-9500, 12-2PM and 5:30-10:30PM daily.   Good pizza from wood-fired stone oven, something you will be missing if you are staying for a long time in Japan. The lunch menu (available 11:30-13:30) is excellent.
 * Mother, Daizawa 5-36-14 (3 min from Shimokitazawa South Exit, on the corner just before Gyoza-no-Osho), 03-3421-9519. Multi-ethnic food and an interesting selection of imported beers, in a cave-like, Gaudi-inspired setting. Make sure you have time to kill, as the kitchen works at a rather leisurely pace.
 * Patisserie NAOKI, Komazawa 1-4-12 1F, 03-3422-3167.
 * Setagaya, Nozawa 2-1-2 1F, 03-3418-6938, 11AM-2:30 PM and 6:00PM-3:00AM (closed Thursdays). A famous ramen restaurant.
 * Sunday Brunch, Kitazawa 2-29-2 2F, 03-5453-3366, . Sunday Brunch is a cafe.  Their French toast is very tasty.
 * Trocadero, Kitazawa 3-30-3 (North exit), 03-3476-1991. Trocadero is an authentic French bistro. How authentic? The entire store was brought over from France.
 * 31 Ice Cream Ice cream shop that has many flavors. Discounts on the 31st of each month.

 *

Kura Kura has an excellent selection of beers from Japanese microbreweries served on tap, such as Swan Lake in Niigata and Sanktgallen in Kanagawa.  They also have a wide selection of bottled beers, such as offerings from Baird Brewing Company in Shizuoka and Fuji Sakura Kogen in Yamanashi. Some food is also served—try the sausage and beer sampler set for ¥1000.

 * Ushi-Tora, 2-9-3 Kitazawa, 03-3485-9090, 5PM-4AM daily, (in Japanese).  Seemingly in direct competition to Kura Kura, Ushi-Tora also offers a wide selection of Japanese and US microbrews on tap.  Opened 2006.

Hello James! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page. If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the Wikivoyage:Travellers' pub|travellers' pub]].

In addition to that little boilerplate collection of links, I would like to thank you for your work on Saint-Barthelemy and for your message on my talk page. It is my opinion that Wikivoyage's policies do not fit resort cities/islands like St Barthelemy well; perhaps it is worth revisiting these policies. My advice is to take a good long look at Project:External links and Project:Accommodation listings and their accompanying talk pages, then leave a message on the Project:Accommodation listings page outlining which changes you think would be useful to our policies on apartment rentals listings. Hopefully that will get some sort of discussion rolling. I will try to keep track of any changes you make there and will try to help make things clear. I would look more into this myself, but I have very little experience with resort destinations—most of my "tourist" travel has been in the Former Soviet Union! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 20:27, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

 * Hi, James. Thank you for the note on my talk page regarding Saint-Barthelemy. I understand your points, but I really don't agree. I don't feel your links met Wikivoyage policies and I don't understand the need for an exception either. I don't feel the page will necessarily die as I have personally written many pages without help of business owners, tourism organizations or anyone. If one seeks a wedding planner for St. Barth's, I would think they would use Google. Most travelers have no need of the service and would not look for it on Wikivoyage. It seems to me to be enough to indicate it is a nice place to marry-- and maybe appropriate to list one or two recommended ones (with phone numbers, email addresses and with links to their website if they have one). We are not interested in generating traffic to other guide sites. We want the information on Wikivoyage--not links to other sites. Until policy is changed, this is what I will go by. (WT-en) OldPine 14:00, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for your note. Please sign your comments on any talk page with ~ (four tildes) which automatically puts in your username,date and time. It helps in keeping the communications straight, thanks. (WT-en) OldPine 10:57, 2 August 2007 (EDT)

 * In regards to any accommodations, I believe policy states that they need to be available for periods of less than one week. Somehow that seems wrong to me... maybe I misuderstood. Certainly most travelers to St. Barths would be going for a week or more I would guess. I'd not delete the rental agencies in this instance... not sure if others might. (WT-en) OldPine 11:08, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
 * Here is policy on villa agencies: Project:Accommodation listings -- (WT-en) OldPine 11:11, 2 August 2007 (EDT)

Kimberley, SA
Why did you remove most of the "Get Out" towns and their directions from http://en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Kimberley_(South_Africa)&diff=prev&oldid=1171100 on 15 June?

(WT-en) BarryDowns 08:58, 13 September 2009 (EDT)

 * Too elaborate, will fit better in the province articles. The "Get out" section should give short pointers, where to go from Kimberley. The long list I removed, would make a nice map. We need really some nice maps in South Africa, especially the not so touristic provinces. (WT-en) Babbelas 03:26, 14 September 2009 (EDT)

 * Thanks. My maps are not brilliant, but they are getting better. Conquering the world I leave to others, there's enough left to do in South Africa. Storms River, Tsitsikamma and Eastern Cape are sorted now, there's plenty of unmapped/unpictured articles left. - (WT-en) Babbelas 09:57, 12 March 2010 (EST)

 * Hi there. Your request for a Southern Africa map... does that mean you are doing a new one? Or that you think the existing one is not up to scratch? Just to be clear, in case work is duplicated :). And to reiterate what Peter said - your maps are great! Keep it up. Cheers.--(WT-en) Burmesedays 12:13, 15 March 2010 (EDT)

 * You guys probably played a game of 'Risk' over Africa and added Zambia and Moz onto Southern Africa, which map is now outdated. I'm not busy with it at all. - (WT-en) Babbelas 12:40, 15 March 2010 (EDT)

 * Ha! Yes, I remember that now. In light of that, most of the African maps got re-done by either Peter or myself, but clearly not Southern Africa. Let me knock it into shape. Cheers.--(WT-en) Burmesedays 23:02, 15 March 2010 (EDT)

User talk:(WT-en) Balukusguide

Hello, and some remarks
I welcome you to Wikivoyage. We would welcome any useful information you would like to post in the Uganda guide or guides to regions and localities you are familiar with. However, you cannot start an article here about a guide: Only guides about places are OK (see Project:What is an article?), and in addition, promoting or even linking to another guide runs afoul of Wikivoyage's external links policy.

If after reading these pages, you choose not to participate further here, that would be regrettable but understandable, but I hope you'll choose to help make this guide better.

If you have any questions, please ask here or in the Project:Travellers' Pub.

All the best,

Hi there, I noticed you had placed a number of listings for your resort on the Madhya Pradesh and Bandhavgarh pages. It's great that you're excited about your resort and you've contributed information about it and the area to Wikivoyage, but we only need the resort listed once.

Welcome, but please check Apt, the listing you are trying to add does not seem to qualify per our policies. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 08:44, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Listings for Cork
Hi Sertmann

i disagree. The link is very specific to holiday rentals for cork and in Ireland holiday rentals and B&B are 100 times bigger than hotel stays. Hotel websites are allowed

 * That may be, but we do things according to policies here, if you don't like the policy, you need to change it, not break it. Though I have to warn you, it's a long standing policy which has been serving us quite well, so you'd be facing a challenge there. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 08:56, 23 November 2009 (EST)

 * Oh, you would do that Wikivoyage_talk:Accommodation_listings btw. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 08:58, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Why the selective enforcement of policies ......why all the hotels and no competing accommodation formats ......it in no way relates to the local market

We conform with the policies outlined in the wikivoyage talk...... 1) we have an office in Ireland with a local phone number. 2) the link is specific and refers only to properties in Co Cork 3) All properties are direct from the owner 4) It is an area where holiday rentals are very very very common.

 * I do usually look for an address in the listings I remove, if you had included a Cork adress in the listing I apologize for removing it, if not you need to include the address for your office in Cork in order to be in line with the policy. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 09:14, 23 November 2009 (EST)

 * Does not really matter for his listing which I assume is the one in question?. It is a booking agency and there is no office address that I can find on the website. I doubt very much therefore that they are present at the destinations of their apartment listings and the website says they are based in Tipperary, not Cork. This is not a primary source in any way and therefore you were quite right to delete it Stefan. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 09:19, 23 November 2009 (EST)

It is not a booking agency .....all of the properties are advertised by their owners .........we are a husband and wife team who provide a website for holiday house owners to advertise their houses. We are also locally based in Ireland and know the local accommodation market .....and holiday rentals are huge and cheap

We get no commission and at the moment all houses are advertised free. Surely visitors to Ireland should know about all of their accommodation options especially the cheaper ones .........Ireland is in a savage recession and promoting cheaper options to tourists is one of our governments aims.

 * Regardless, not a primary source. If you have an office in Cork, where customers can show up with inquires, complaints, collect keys etc., by all means include the listing along with a Cork address and telephone number - provided that you are the exclusive agent for at least a handful of those properties (ie. they are not bookable on any other website) or by calling the owners directly. I must say looking at that website, you are very far from what our policies are designed to allow for inclusion. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 09:29, 23 November 2009 (EST)

What you mean if we are a booking agency in cork we can list ..........Completely absurd

 * Stefan's best advice to you was to read the WT policy. If you disagree with that policy, debate it on the talk page. Breaking the policy is not the answer. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 09:34, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Why then are commercial hotels from chains listed ?????

 * Because they are hotels that comply with the relevant WT policy. There might be some that do not and if we see them, they are deleted. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 09:38, 23 November 2009 (EST)

What policy are you applying .......none in any consistent fashion!!!!!Surely the objective is to provide people with information about a country????

 * I am not sure what you do not understand about previous advice. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 09:38, 23 November 2009 (EST)

You are obviously a bit on the slow side .....Why do hotels appear in the Cork listing and ones from commercial chains .....surely that is against polity too???? or do you not understand the policies too??

 * Listen, we are all volunteers and not here to serve or spend time business interests. The hotels are located in Cork, with a reception desk in cork, a telephone number in Cork, and beds in Cork, meaning that even though they are part of a chain, by nearly all measures they are located in, well, Cork. You are located Nenagh, which given my limited knowledge of Irish geography, I assume is not Cork. But you allow people from Cork to advertise their property in Cork (freely only for the first 12 months), meaning you are an advertising business, not a place to sleep. And by the way, we remove at least as many hotel chain entries as we do businesses like yours, albeit from different reasons, and no, Burmesedays is entirely correct, and in line with our policies --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 09:51, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Maybe I can put it in different words, as I've just removed your ad from the Ireland article. Broadly, this site serves travellers by listing actual accommodation - hostels, campsites, hotels, etc, where they can physically rack up and stay. If the site allowed ads by every third-party website which tried to act as an agent, it would be awash with ads and as a result would be less useful to the traveller. Hence the policy of no 3rd party listings. The exception would be if you are the sole agent for the accommodation - is that the case here? (WT-en) Andyfarrell 12:36, 23 November 2009 (EST)

With all due respects the contributors here are completely ignorant of the realities of accommodation in the UK and Ireland. I am not an agent and i am not an aggregator. Most of the properties on our site from Ireland are only on our site and for all of them the visitor contacts the owner directly. Generally in Ireland holiday homes are owned by older people who really dont understand that much about the web and most definitely dont have their own web site. The Irish Government in an effort to formalise this segment of the market has set up its own site and is actively promoting it all over the web. Is it also an aggregator.....? Yes the reality of travel is that the provision of services is done by commercial organisations but that doesnt mean it is a bad thing. Good services is what good travel is all about and generally these are provided by commercial organisations. However you make it very clear that our kind of service is not wanted on a site like this. It is kind of funny because your accommodation facilites all over Ireland are empty and people like me would have spent time updating local information all over the country. We were even going to contact all our advertisers to make sure that they updated their local information on this site. But i guess a Dane and a Brit in Indonesia know better ..............it might be better to call the site wikivoyagebums.org as you are definitely not interested in providing information to the majority of travellers about the options they have ........dont bother replying .......i wont be back

Re: Pacific Coastal Properties Removal?
Project:Accommodation listings explains our guidelines for rental agency listings. Primarily, the agency must have a real-world address where the keys are picked up. Your listing had such an address, but it was in Solana Beach. It appears the listing would probably be valid in that article, but not in the others unless your company had local offices in those cities. (WT-en) LtPowers 10:24, 16 July 2009 (EDT)

Hi, Barkleyrei. The content you've added recently to various Pennsylvania region articles is all copied directly from the state's tourism web site. That makes it a copyright violation, and we don't allow that here. If you want to talk about Pennsylvania, you have to write it in your own words. Thanks!

Wikivoyage article topics
Thanks for all of your great contributions! Our continent articles are sometimes a little bare, so it's great to see someone adding content to them. One thing worth noting, however, is that according to Project:Bodies of water we do not create articles for bodies of water since they aren't travel destinations - people visit Hawaii, not the Pacific Ocean. In addition, per Project:What is an article?, something like the Equator generally doesn't get its own article either. Other than that your contributions look great, and hopefully we'll see more. Thanks! -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:14, 30 October 2006 (EST)

Please also see this about external links, particularly as it applies to maps. Thanks. (WT-en) OldPine 15:27, 30 October 2006 (EST)

Thank you for contributing to St Helens (England). An excellent first article. --(WT-en) Huttite 20:53, 11 Jan 2006 (EST)

You asked on my Talk page How can I help?

 * Hey, thanks for proofreading the St Helens (England) article. That's the first guide I've made.. and that's my hometown I chose to write it on, so I guess I know what I'm talking about! Thing is, being new, I didn't really know what I was doing, so if you could let me know how I can improve the page further than "usable" I'll see what I can do. My digital camera's bust at the moment or else I'd have been happy to add photos. I'm lost without it! Thanks (WT-en)  B arr  Y   20:18, 11 Jan 2006 (EST)

 * My reply : Normally I try and give a welcome message to people when they make their first edit of an article, or create a new page. You were so quick off the mark and the St Helens (England) article was so good, I thought you were an old hand. I only left the article as usable because the listings were brief and did not have all the contact details, such as telephone numbers, only external links. I asked myself, could I use this article as my only source of information about St Helens? The answer was no because I would need to go look up the websites to make a reservation - or knock on the door and ask - if I was on the road and did not have on-line access. -- (WT-en) Huttite 20:53, 11 Jan 2006 (EST)

 * Hi Barry, as you live close to Manchester can you offer any advise/solutions about how to list plases like Oldham, Stockport etc. Please see Talk:Manchester. Thanks. (WV-en) WindHorse. 12 Jan 06

Maps / one last note on Paris
Hi Barry, I use Inkscape to make my maps, usually starting from a satellite photo. There's a description of the process here if you'd like to have a go at it.

One more thing: If your friend is still concerned about Parisians accepting him show him the Wikipedia article on Bertrand Delanoe. -- (WT-en) Mark 16:47, 12 Jan 2006 (EST)

Open directory
On my talk page you asked

''Hi, sorry about this, but you added a link to Greater Manchester to an open directory. Sorry to be a pain in the neck but what's this? I couldn't find anything on it in the help files and I'm curious. I'm just willing to learn! Cheers (WT-en)  B arr  Y   07:13, 12 Jan 2006 (EST)''

 * My reply : See Project:Links to Open Directory. The Open Directory Project (ODP) is a website with the sublime mission of categorising all websites using human editors. Because Humans do it better. It was founded by the good people at Netscape and is called DMOZ after Mozilla, an early web-browser. If you have ever used Google and wanted to submit a URL it directs you to submit the URL to ODP, along with pretty much every other search engine on earth.

 * Search engines use ODP as a base for categorising websites. If your website is not in the Open Directory Project, search engines will have a hard time finding it. Which is why spammers want to put links on any wiki they find, because google loves wikis and ODP hates spammers and only gives them one link per website.

 * Wikivoyage links to ODP appear in the box called Other languages/sites in the left hand sidebar, below the Navigation, Search and Toolbox boxes. Wikivoyage links to ODP help people find the related websites to a place and help search engines correctly categorise and rank ODP pages. -- (WT-en) Huttite 04:59, 13 Jan 2006 (EST)

We have an introductory page for business owners--please take a minute to read it before going on with your edits. What's most important when adding your content are: be fair and don't tout. Your recent addition this user talk page looks very much like an advertisement. Wikivoyage strives to avoid being an "advertising brochure" for any business, city, or service--so we have deleted your text. I would recommend you read our Project:Don't tout article before your future edits--and we would happy to see you back editing here but also respecting our guidelines ;-) - (WT-en) Huttite 02:52, 10 February 2009 (EST)
