Hello!

Welcome to Wikivoyage. You can edit your preferences to change how the software works for you. Please take a second to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you're new to our wiki software, MediaWiki, look at the Wiki markup to get an idea of how to edit a page. If you need help, check out the help desk, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub.

Also regarding the Ajanta Guesthouse in Delhi, I'm gonna keep reverting your edits until you go to Talk:Delhi and answer the questions I posed to you there. I'm not saying I'm definitely right, but I'd like to know your point of view before I leave it alone. Thanks! – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 00:41, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Your recent addition this user talk page looks very much like an advertisement.

Thank you for contributing to Ontario (province), Toronto, Greater Toronto Area and Whitby (Ontario). Please note that we like to use the simplest english name for a destination, so some of the content you have contributed has been changed to be less bureaucratic. We also tend to prefer a separate article about each destination, rather than having a whole lot of destinations under headings on a page. You might also want to read up on how we link to other websites. We prefer not to directly link the attraction name because Wikivoyage is also is intended as a printed guide and linking directly under a name often makes a website URL appear in an odd place on the printed page. -- (WT-en) Huttite 07:34, 10 Dec 2005 (EST)

Thanks for your contibutions around France, however you should probably catch up with a few of the Wikivoyage policies. See Project:Welcome, business owners and Project:Activity listings.

Hi, Thanks for the clue about city names. I started editing the page that had the Salida link on it because it wrongly pointed to Salida, California. I am in the Salida/Buena Vista, Colorado area and thought I might begin adding to the information on that area.

I am not a Wikipedian (too new to know what that is).

Thanks again, JohnTravel

Hello! Welcome to Wikivoyage. If you want to specialize your experience you may want to consider editing your preferences. Please take a second to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages.

If you're new to the whole wiki community look at the Wiki markup to get an idea of how to use the wiki markup. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub.

Also, we normally name articles city name only like New York, but if there is more than one city with the same name we write the name of the article like this "City name (State name)" so Salida since there is more than one city with the same name should have been name Salida (Colorado). P.S. Are you a Wikipedian? -- (WT-en) Sapphire 23:38, 9 August 2006 (EDT)

Thank you for contributing to Whistler, Vancouver/Kitsilano, Bali, and adding Rai Leh.

A couple of tips.
 * 1) The Table of Contents automatically displays after 3 headings are added to a page. If you use the quick versions of the article templates, standard headings are added and a table of contents appears.
 * 2) Please give website URL's in listings for accommodation, restaurants, and bars as one of our goals is to have a printed guide and hidden URL's are useless in print. -- (WT-en) Huttite 05:02, 17 Feb 2005 (EST)

Images
Johnycanal,

Instead of uploading images on this site could you upload them to the Shared_site? This makes it easier for us to maintain the images and the site. You will need to create a_Shared_user_name, but that is the exact same process as creating an image on the regular Wikivoyage. Also, if you want to get back to the regular wikivoyage site all you have to do is retype www.wikivoyage.org back into the browser's address bar.

Thanks! - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 02:04, 7 June 2006 (EDT)

 * I just realized that people talk back on their own pages for other people to read in the future. Since I saw this suggestion, I have been putting my images in the shared site. It's painless but it does make me wonder why Wikivoyage has an upload link at all, rather than a link to upload to the shared site.  Regardless, I'm sure someone else is interested in thinking about so I'll leave it for them. (WT-en) Johnycanal 13:02, 03 July 2006 (PST)

Quickbars for states/provinces
There has been some discussion about whether quickbars should be used for states/provinces (see Template talk:Quickbar for one such discussion) and while a final decision wasn't really reached I think the general feeling was that quickbars are currently really only appropriate for countries, and that we'll need to modify the template if it's going to be useful for states/provinces/cities. As a result I've reverted the quickbar for Ontario, although if you feel strongly please discuss at Template talk:Quickbar. -- (WT-en) Ryan 21:08, 27 July 2006 (EDT)

 * Looks like several of the Canadian provinces now have quickbars, so I've added it back to Ontario. I think if we're going to use these for levels smaller than countries we might want to re-work the template to be slightly more appropriate, but I don't feel overly strongly on the subject. -- (WT-en) Ryan 21:15, 27 July 2006 (EDT)

 * Thanks. I don't have a strong feeling on the subject either and can't articulate much beyond somehow it looks appropriate and I like it. (WT-en) Johnycanal 21:19, 27 July 2006 (EDT)

Philippines
Thanks for restoring the non-copyvio images to the Philippines. It's unusual for us to have so many copyvios uploaded without anyone catching it for such a long time, which made the cleanup job more difficult. -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:49, 22 August 2006 (EDT)
 * No problem on the pictures. I had been watching the page for a while to see when the (likely) copyrighted pictures would be removed.  I was happy to replace them.  Hopefully it will inspire a few more people to put up their masterpieces.  (WT-en) Johnycanal 11:45, 24 August 2006 (EDT)

Spas?
Hi, Johnycanal. I'm writing to you as the "expert" on Hot springs and Spas. I'm wondering if Saratoga Springs or Calistoga deserve a listing on either. Saratoga looks like a spa to me, but I believe the Calistoga area has a geyser and so is hot springs?? (WT-en) OldPine 07:00, 22 September 2006 (EDT)
 * May I jump in here? The so-called "geyser" at Calistoga isn't a natural feature but rather a drilled well that erupts (T. S. Bryan, "The Geysers of Yellowstone," the standard reference on not just Yellowstone's geysers but the world's), and does not necessarily imply the presence of hot springs. However, according to Wikipedia, there really are hot springs there too.  Of course you can't always trust Wikipedia about such things, but the preponderance of evidence suggests that this one is correct.  Lots of hot springs in California need to be added to the article; please feel free.  As for Saratoga, this article asserts that New York has no natural hot springs, so that what's there should be called a spa.  This is consistent with the geological setting. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 09:53, 22 September 2006 (EDT)
 * Nice explanation (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill. That's enough for me. —  (WT-en) Johnycanal 15:30, 24 September 2006 (EDT)

About the map of Playa del Carmen (II part)
Hi Johnycanal,

I have found in Wikivoyage a link to a site that have a navigable map of Playa del Carmen. I have seen that you have deleted it because for you it was an external marketing map. My opinion is that the map is absolute free and it can be useful for all other users that need to know or to visit Playa del Carmen. Please take a look to the site and you will see that they offer a good directory to find what you need in Playa del Carmen and how to find a specific address. I have tried for a long time to find a good navigable map of Playa, but without success. Everybody can see easly that in the page of Playa del Carmen there are other real external link of commercial sites, with the only purpose to sell and not to give information about the city.

This is only my opinion. What do you think about this?

Regards, Carolfab
 * Hi (WT-en) Carolfab, thanks for the note and I agree, it is usually pretty tough to find a good map of travel destination. It's frustrating and it's a challenge with Wikivoyage. As for why I took it out, check out. Hopefully that will answer your question better than I could. External links. (WT-en) Johnycanal 00:09, 29 September 2006 (EDT)

Hi Johnycanal,

I have read your answer and I didn't really understand what you are agree with me. What I wanted to say, is that for my opinion the link to that site was ok and usefull for the comunity. When I spoke about real external link of commercial sites, I mean other links that are actually inserted in the page of Playa del Carmen in Wikivoyage. (Ah-Cacao, Xel-Ha) They really sell services and they promote their product. I don't think that it is useful for the comunity to know their site because they don't give any informations about the thema "Playa del Carmen". I think it would be ok to write the name but without any external links. In this case I can say that I'm agree with you. But regarding that map I'm sorry but I'm not agree. In the site that you have deleted, you can see information about Playa, a complete map and a directory to find hotels, restaurants and much more.

I think that we should really check what it is commercial from what can offer something good and usefull to the comunity. I have checked again that external site (deleted from you) and I have seen that it is all free and gives the opportunity to everybody to sign up without any cost. The links in the pages are linked to the directory of the portal, or to the map of Playa del Carmen or to the legitimate website. The portal doesn't sell any tours, any hotel or trip packages. It gives information about the city and where to find what a tourist or a local can need to find.

I find the map very good and for my opinion should be added to the article of Playa del Carmen in Wikivoyage.

I hope to receive any comments from you.

Regards, Carolfab

 * Carolfab -- I can see how you are a little confused. It looks like the link didn't come through.  Allow me to cut and paste a few excerpts taken from here:  Wikivoyage_talk:External_links "This guide is meant as a travel guide, not a link farm. We need info here for many reasons: first, we want to make a complete and usable printable travel guide. A link is useless in print, so it's better to incorporate real information here rather than link to it. Second (and related), when you link to vital info, there is a temptation to fail to include complete info here." and here: Project:External_links "Avoid linking to secondary sources. For example, avoid using links to: ... Map services" and "We should have travel information in Wikivoyage, not linked to from Wikivoyage. This is an incentive issue; if we have lots of links to other travel guides, we lose the impetus to create our own. In addition, many users print copies of Wikivoyage articles, and therefore need information to be within the article rather than linked to at another site."  I hope this helps.

First, I'm assuming you're the same user as 31.214.92.35. In any case, would you PLEASE read don't tout? You have paid no attention to my editing summaries telling you to look at that page, and also apt. If you keep on reposting the same entry, it will continue to violate the same site policies, and eventually, volunteer editors will tire of wasting time re-deleting your entry and just block your account. Instead, you'd have a chance of having your listing stay up if you would just follow site policies, as shown at the links I've given you.

I also would urge you to look at wbo, as your edits appear to be self-interested. We welcome business owners here, but we ban marketing and touting and would like for you to share your knowledge and not just list your business and leave.

This site is not a place for people to advertise themselves as tour guides. In fact, that's with few exceptions strictly forbidden. Read Project:Don't tout and Project:Activity listings. Also, read Project:First person pronouns for good measure. We would hope that instead of vainly attempting to continue advertising, you would share your knowledge about your home town in the Pugudpud article and help visitors that way. If you prefer not to do so, however, there are many other corners of the worldwide web where you can advertise to your heart's content - just not here.

Hey

I just wanted to commend you on your work on the DisneyWorld guide, i can see you're getting frustrated about the progress of the star nomination, and I just wanted to reach out and give you a pat on the back for your work - it is excellent.

Please be aware that the star articles are sort of the showcase of the community, and people are really nit picky, because it means something to them, as they spend a lot of time here. Just - don't despair alright :-)

Personally, I'm missing some map(s) showing the location of the ride - and then i'd throw in my support

Re: Walt Disney World redirect problem
Something odd with the way redirects and caches work. The page at "http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Walt_Disney_World" was cached as an older version, even though the actual (redirected) text at "http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Walt_Disney_World_Resort" had since changed. I had no idea that was even possible. Anyway, a quick purge of the redirect page (via "http://en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Walt_Disney_World&action=purge") fixed it. (WT-en) LtPowers 21:57, 30 September 2008 (EDT)

Pensacola Beach
Thanks for your work on the Pensacola Beach article! You're pretty good at fixing some of those weird little sentences I make sometimes. I can't believe I typed 1780 instead of 1880 when talking about Lt. Langdon. And while I'm posting here, I'll also say you've done some incredible stuff with the Walt Disney World article! --(WT-en) Tally talk 12:25, 9 October 2008 (EDT)

Re: New infobox
Cute, but I think we should stick to images of Walt Disney World. (WT-en) LtPowers 16:13, 14 October 2008 (EDT)

 * Hey, nice to see you back working on Disney World, was sort of worried the star nomination discussion had discouraged you --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) Talk 23:41, 9 December 2008 (EST)

I'll pare it down. (WT-en) LtPowers 09:09, 28 January 2009 (EST)

Disney Tokyo map
It's not "my" map, it's a PD map scrounged off Wikipedia. is indeed better, but unfortunately it's GFDL and not compatible with our licensing. (WT-en) Jpatokal 00:56, 22 May 2009 (EDT)

 * Re: the newer map, here's the editable SVG, so add the missing bits yourself! (WT-en) Jpatokal 22:25, 8 July 2009 (EDT)

 * Open the above file with the program inkscape, there is some tips on how to mangle with maps at: How to draw a map and Project:How to create a map, and there is a good external manual here tavmjong.free.fr. But mostly I'll encourage you to just open the svg in Inkscape and play around with the tools, it's rather easy to get the hang of. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) Talk 10:27, 9 July 2009 (EDT)

Nice work
This is good stuff, Jonathan. Keep up the great work. Sorry I removed that other infobox you wrote; it's good info but just not what we need in a travel guide. (WT-en) LtPowers 11:27, 29 May 2009 (EDT)

Re: Minor WDW map error
Nice catch; I screwed up when I was renumbering. Feel free to fix it yourself if you get to it before I do. =) (WT-en) LtPowers 12:41, 11 June 2009 (EDT)

Osprey Ridge Golf Course
Hi, Jonathan. Re: this edit, I put Osprey Ridge in the Downtown Disney area for two reasons: 1) That's where WDW puts it, and 2) I think it's more readily accessible from the Port Orleans/Downtown Disney area than from the Magic Kingdom area, despite its proximity to Fort Wilderness. (WT-en) LtPowers 09:20, 18 June 2009 (EDT)

Re: Good job
One thing at a time. =) Studios is almost up to snuff.  I still need to expand the See/Do descriptions and add something about the Wide World of Sports complex.  (WT-en) LtPowers 09:24, 5 July 2009 (EDT)

 * I found some time to work on the Studios article today and have nominated it for Star status. Please review and comment at your leisure, and feel free to help with any improvements that are requested.  (WT-en) LtPowers 22:14, 5 July 2009 (EDT)

Re: How do I create or edit a map?
Well, for Tokyo Disney, you could always ask User:(WT-en) Tatata, who created the map, to modify it to include the missing items. =) However, modifying it yourself would be a good first step rather than trying to create one from scratch.  We have instructions at Project:How to draw a map, but in short: you'll need a program called Inkscape (a free vector image editor), and you'll need to play around with it a bit to learn how things are done.  You could start by taking the Tokyo Disney map (start with the SVG, the vector version: Image:JP Map of Tokyo Disney Resort.svg) and loading it in Inkscape and seeing how different parts of it are put together.  (WT-en) LtPowers 10:33, 9 July 2009 (EDT)

WDW images
Hi, Jonathan. I noticed you've uploaded several images without specifying where they came from or even, in some cases, what license they're under. I urge you to go through your contributions and make sure they include all of the necessary information: description, source, author, and license. You can see an example on wts:Image:Japanese pagoda at Epcot.jpg, which you uploaded, where I pulled in the necessary information from Wikimedia Commons. Thanks a ton for your help! (WT-en) LtPowers 14:41, 22 July 2009 (EDT)
 * Hey, just wondering if you saw this. Let me know.  (WT-en) LtPowers 15:03, 25 August 2009 (EDT)
 * Great, thanks. I also did a couple that I wanted to use in the Epcot article, you can use them as examples if that would help: Image:Reflections of Earth 9.jpg, Image:BoardwalkInn.jpg.  It's really important to have that information correct; otherwise I wouldn't be harping on it.  (And it's easiest if you do it when you upload them, instead of waiting for later.)  (WT-en) LtPowers 11:25, 27 August 2009 (EDT)

Steve Jobs
Hi, Jonathan. Regarding this reversion, I apologize. I hit the rollback button by mistake, so I wasn't able to explain why I removed it in the edit summary. Here's my explanation: the scene in Spaceship Earth shows only one person, not two, and that one person is definitely not a young Steve Jobs. The figure does resemble Steve Wozniak, but Disney claims that it's not supposed to represent any real person. So that's why I removed your addition. I hope you understand. (WT-en) LtPowers 22:20, 5 October 2011 (EDT)

 * I do understand. Thanks for correcting me. (WT-en) Jonathan 784 09:04, 6 October 2011 (EDT)

Hello, ! 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 travellers' pub.

Before you start creating new articles like European cities, please take a look at how we already cover the continent. We have a main article for Europe which describes the different regions of the continent, which are divided into countries, and so on. This new article seems to be trying to do the same thing, but... differently. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 17:25, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Welcome
Hello Jonbie! Welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a sec to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub. If you are having trouble with some of the terms being used, check out the jargon page.

The page you have added for Chinggis khaan does not fit into Wikivoyage. It looks more like something that would go better in Wikipedia. Also, the text is copied from another website which is a copyright violation. I am sorry, but it looks like this contribution will be deleted. We do want your contributions and I would suggest you take a look around at some of the articles and do some reading of the links above. I look forward to your future contributions and welcome to Wikivoyage! --- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 06:52, 16 September 2006 (EDT)

User talk:(WT-en) Jonblum

Welcome
Hi Jonblum! Thanks for your edits on Maui and elsewhere. I've had to remove most of the links because of our policy on external links.

Anyhow, I wanted to welcome you to Wikivoyage. If you want to specialize your experience you may want to consider editing your preferences.

It would be a good idea to have a quick look at our list of tips for newcomers to get a feel for what we are trying to achieve on Wikivoyage, and if you're new to the whole wiki software, also look at the wiki markup to get an idea of how to use the wiki markup.

If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub or on my talk page.

We do welcome businesses, but there are some rules. -- (WT-en) OldPine 20:37, 3 October 2007 (EDT)

Southern Maryland
Hi, I noticed you moved my two restaurant reviews from the southern Maryland section to a new Prince Frederick page. Two questions: 1) if restaurant reviews should be listed in specific towns why is there an "Eat" section in the regional article; and 2) One restaurant, Stoney's, isn't actually in or particularly near Prince Frederick, it's a good 15 miles away. The town it *is* in isn't even incorporated. - glen.henshaw@gmail.com, 9 March 2009

Okay, got it. Broome's Island and Saint Leonard are both probably too small for their own listings, so Prince Frederick it is. BTW, when discussing things, is this how it's done? One person posts to the other person's talk page? - glen.henshaw@gmail.com

Picture
Hey, you suggested moving my Silver Spring photo off the site given the policy of people in pictures. I should like to note that it is me and my spouse presented in the picture. Given that information, I should have perhaps protected it under a different type of copyright and if it is appropriate for me to do so please let it be known.

Paris
Noticed that you took down my revisions of hostels in Paris. I visited the new St Christopher's Inns there and it's worth mentioning... Talk
 * Perhaps, but since Paris is a huge city, specific listings belong in the district articles. (WT-en) Jonboy 11:34, 28 February 2008 (EST)

Cool, that's probably worth it. I was speaking to the manager there who said it took 7 years to build! It's an amazing building. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Travelempire (talk • contribs)

DC districts
I am trying to reshuffle the DC districts a bit and I thought I would solicit your advice regarding a comprehensive districts proposal for DC. Thanks! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 15:12, 10 January 2008 (EST)

Maryland map
You mean Cecil County? I know next to nothing about that section of the state except for driving through it on I-95, so I'll defer to the office of tourism and move it to the Eastern Shore. I'm flirting with the idea of starting a Wikivoyage:Project to make either Maryland or the Mid-Atlantic the site's first star-region, which will be tough work! The main challenge is making all linked destinations at least guide status. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 19:38, 6 March 2008 (EST)

 * Hey, I created a Project:Maryland Expedition and though you might be interested in joining. It'll be a long haul operation, but it would be great to get Maryland up to guide status—right now there isn't a single guide-level region article on Wikivoyage! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 20:37, 9 March 2008 (EDT)

 * I was leaning towards declaring retrocession a fait accompli on Wikivoyage, simply because I'm sick of having a hard time explaining where I'm from, having grown up 5 minutes across the DC border, but I suppose you're right. I also added our 9 cities to the region map—if you think it hurts the aesthetic, let me know (I haven't made up my mind). In any rate, I will be adding a destination map with all the cities, other destinations, and major roadways between them relatively soon. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 13:21, 14 March 2008 (EDT)

Baltimore
Thanks for cleaning that up—sometimes when I see an unsorted hotel list on an undistricted large city page like that, I get kind of dejected about getting it in order. I agree strongly that Baltimore would benefit from districts. I've been meaning to try and create an easy to use neighborhoods map of the city—I'll try and get that done and then propose a scheme. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 21:56, 14 March 2009 (EDT)

Talk:Montgomery County (Maryland)
I tried to put together a Wikivoyage style map for the county, which brought up a few questions in my mind. If you get a chance, please take a look at the discussion. Thanks! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 23:39, 18 March 2010 (EDT)

Merge
I've merged User:(WT-en) Jonboy to this account. I moved your user page and talk page to User:Jonboy/saved and User talk:Jonboy/saved so that the old pages could be moved over, so please manually merge or delete the "saved" pages as you see fit. -- Ryan • (talk) • 23:15, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Docent categorization
Please stop If you want to categorize yourself as a docent, go ahead. If you want to use a userbox that says that you are one, that's also fine. But this template is for guides, not userpages. See the category's instructions. This is a really straightforward matter of maintenance and there's no reason to take offense. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:18, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Categorization I've edited the template so that it only categorizes in the main namespace. We should be all good from now on, if you want your name to appear as a docent for your own userpage. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:26, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

Banner expedition
Hi Jonboy, Welcome on-board the banner expedition :) Nice banners! Did you know there is the possibility to add the banner file name to wikidata, so that the banner is shareable automatically between different language versions? It can be done via left panel - data item. There it is possible to add Wikivoyage banners. Cheers, Danapit (talk) 18:11, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)
