Driving in Australia
Your recent contributions to the Driving in Australia article are appreciated and it is clear that you have made a serious attempt to make improvements and develop the article. However the structural changes you have made appear to have changed the focus of the article from one of driving in Australia to that of long distance driving and rural/outback driving conditions. The original structure of the article outlines the general driving situation in Australia, then it goes on to elaborate on the driving conditions. Most visitors arrive on the coast at a major airport. Think of it as a sequence of needs, first a potential driver needs to know the general situation, hopefully they consider this before they leave home, then they need to know something of the legal and licensing requirements so they understand if they are eligible to drive there, then they need to know the details of things like road conditions, distances, advisories and cautions.

Although many visitors may just think of the allure and challenges of the Australian 'outback' and the open road most of these trips start with more pragmatic considerations. Do you have a valid licence, how to gain access to a vehicle, how to drive in the cities, and further how to tackle the specific needs of long distance and remote area travel. I think I understand why you have re-ordered things as you did but I am not at all convinced that those changes are a good idea. It is also not a good idea to change the section header names as they are derived from a thematic and formulaic style dictated by the article formatting policies and guidelines as described in the Wikivoyage manual of style. An article section header such as ==Understand== is a standard article header.

The normal way to approach major content or structural change is to discuss the needs, requirements and proposed changes on the articles discussion page. This is especially so in the case of an established and reasonably well resolved article such as those with a "Guide" or "Star" rating. This means they have been subjected to some fairly rigorous scrutiny by established editors to ensure that the article is compliant with the policies and guidelines applicable and is suitably useful in content and article structure.

Any content that you have contributed in your recent edits is not 'lost', as it is all retained in the edit histories. I encourage you to register as a user, so other editors know they are just dealing with one individual rather than multiple users of an IP address and explore the MoS and the guideline and policy articles linked there. I appreciate you may feel a little annoyed that your edits have been reverted but please do understand that new editors are very welcome here, especially when they are clearly making an effort to improve an article. It might also assist if you made smaller edits so that other editors can more readily identify what you are doing. This also avoids the problems that can arise when a block revert such as I have just done takes some uncontroversial improvements with it as well. Perhaps start with some changes to the prose in the article if you can identify some areas for improvement, but do not make any major structural changes until you are more familiar with the policies and guidelines and please do not rename any section or sub-section headers or use exclamation marks in them. I hope you will continue to contribute here, most certainly please do not be put off by the recent revert to your contributions and welcome to Wikivoyage. -- (WT-en) felix 04:38, 14 August 2011 (EDT)

Instead of picking names at random, look through existing articles and find the cities that are linked in red. Those are cities that someone already thinks we should have an article for (but we don't), which would avoid most of the arguments on Project:votes for deletion about whether your new articles are appropriate or not. Also, if you create a new article, please click on the blue "City" link at the top of the edit box; this will fill in an outline for you, so you can insert the name of the city and the state it's in. That would be a lot less disruptive than what you've been doing. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 17:31, 14 July 2006 (EDT)

Hello,

I noted you reverted the changes I made to the Cyprus/north Cyprus visa problem. Acctually the restirictions have been lifted, but only for EU-Citizens. This was done by EU-regulation (a direct order from Brussels). Travel is now permitted throughout Cyprus, regardless of point of entry. You can stay in the north for as long as you like (note that the TRNC usually only allows three days when entering from the south). Not again that all of the above only pertains to EU-Citizens (including Cypriots), but not to citizens from other countries (most notable Turkey, but also USA, Australia, Sri Lanka)Exceptions are sometimes made for these nationalities, but you can't count on them being made in these cases.

Hi anon user from IP 130.227.70.124 on Tuesday 11 January 2005,

I'm sorry, but we'll have to delete all of the links to your photo gallery. It's not that the pictures aren't nice, it's just we'd rather have them internally than have a link to them. I'm afraid it's the CC by-sa way or the highway at Wikivoyage. Thanks anyhow, and of course please do feel free to upload any of the photos here, anytime. -- (WT-en) Mark 08:53, 11 Jan 2005 (EST)

Please advise
Hi Mark

I am not sure this is the correct way to respond to your removing our link to pages on topic. I do not understand this policy as an external link to a relevant pages (all the links did go directly to a page about the subject) would make it easier for a visitor looking for information could see some pictures if they want. If I had a hotel and "just" wanted to sell some I can find many links. I do not hope to sell anything but just want the visitor to have the abillity to see pictures on topic if they want.

If that is not interesting please advise on how to add pictures to your system and how I can add them to relevant pages without making the pages to big to load fast. I guess there are some guidelines but I have not found them on/in your system.

Best regards Jens Peter Graphicalic.dk

Welcome Jens Peter
Hello! 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.

So out external links policy is Project:External links. Perhaps just as importantly, our goals (Project:Goals and non-goals) are to be a useful printed guide as well as an online guide. We avoid picture galleries, among others, because an online-picture gallery is not useful in a printed guidebook in the field. If you feel like contributing some of your images to this project, first check out that the copyright license we use (Project:copyleft) is acceptible to you. If that works for you, check out Project:Image policy for a bit about images here, and you can then click the Special:Upload to take you to a page which will help you upload the image.

Also, to make it clearer that your image was taken by you, perhaps you could make yourself an account here first by clicking "login or create account" in the upper right corner of any page. Welcome! -- (WT-en) Colin 10:25, 11 Jan 2005 (EST)

Cities and towns
We'd rather not have every city and town in Lower Saxony listed in the article for that state. That section of the article is only to list the most well-known travel destinations. Instead, we prefer to create region articles for the various parts of the state, and create a more detailed list of the cities in that region. You'll find more information in our policies and guidelines and manual of style. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub. And like Tsandell said, creating an account would be helpful, both to get credit for your work and to help with communication. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 12:30, 22 July 2006 (EDT)

Even though, it would be utmost polite not to delete my work, but move it to where you think it belonged. Aside Grafschaft is the German word for County or Duchy, and some regions are counties. This was just deleted as well. Even though the dukes have -as in the UK nothing to say in the political affairs, the regions are still historically named after them.

 * I'm sorry if it looked like I was just deleting your work, but I couldn't easily move the cities to the appropriate sub-regions, because I don't know Lower Saxony. If you want to look at a copy of the list before I trimmed it (for reference), you can look at the history of the article .  I took the word "County" off the names of the counties because I didn't think that was the most common way of referring to them.  For example, in the UK,  we don't call them "County Kent" or "County Devon", just "Kent" or "Devon".  Since "county" isn't even the local term, it seemed unlikely to me that it would be commonly known as "County Osnabrück".  If I'm wrong, feel free to put it back. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 22:03, 4 August 2006 (EDT)

HI there, cheers for you reply, which I very much appreciate. Osnabrücker Land, that is a part of the former Kingdom of Hanover, it was a diocese, and the town hall in that city (yeah it is one of 8 cities in lower-saxony) is the lieu, where the Westphalian peace was signed, which was the defacto declaration of independence for the Netherlands, Denmark,Switzerland, and Austria and the transfer of the Alsacian cities of Strasbourg, Colmar, and Mulhouse to France. But the Counties Bentheim, Brunswick, and Schaumburg do certainly exist, and are not Duchies, which are catholic rather than protestant feudal entities. In the Netherlands, you have County Gelderland, not Province Gelderland etc., as the later is more of a French. Mind you that the Dutch Royals, trace back their ancestral home to Orange, which is in lower Bungundry (Midi), on the riveer Rhone in France today.

By the way, have you considered creating an account at Wikivoyage? It gives a bunch of benefits:
 * Easier communication — you will receive others' comments on your personal talk page, even if your future visits are from another IP.
 * Credit for your contributions — at the bottom of any article you edit.
 * Build a reputation — allow other Wikivoyagers to distinguish you from other anonymous users, and provide you with a greater level of trust.
 * Watchlist — a list of pages for which you want to keep track of future changes.
 * Become a Project:Docent — if you know a destination(s) well and would like to share your knowledge.
 * Preferences menu — customize your Wikivoyage experience.

Itineraries
First, thanks for your contributions! Second, I see that you've now created three different itineraries on Wikivoyage. Be aware that itineraries are treated differently than regular articles on Wikivoyage, and incomplete itineraries are typically deleted if they aren't completed within a reasonable amount of time. As a result, you might want to consider simply contributing to Narragansett and Providence, since for an itinerary such as "Visiting Providence" the content should be more-or-less the same as what would be in the main article. You're of course welcome to continue creating itineraries, but be aware that they may be removed if they aren't completed. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 13:49, 4 March 2011 (EST)

Why you Hyatt and Mariott guys consistently insist on making the same mistakes every time you do your rounds, is beyond me. Please talk the hordes of "colleagues" we have already lectured, they'd be able to tell you how to behave to both ours and your own advantage.

You need to stop doing generic copy+past jobs if you want your job to have any meaning (all your changes are being reverted). People are reading a one page travel guide for the areas where you are adding listings, so we really don't need that repeated in each and every hotel listing, and stop using promotional language per don't tout. Instead you should include general price ranges for standard double rooms (i.e. $90-230), phone numbers and features that are not usual to nearly every hotel in the states - i.e minibar and televisions is really not that interesting - but private balconies or jacuzzi hottubs etc. are.

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.

Thanks for your great work on Asuncion! The guide definitely needs some work. One thing that you may not realize is that Wikivoyage guides are edited by many -- sometimes dozens -- of readers just like you. There is no one "person who wrote this guide". If you have some time, it'd be great to get your up-to-date information on the city. You may want to look at some of our better guides, like Singapore, and our Manual of style, to get an idea of the kind of guide we like to make.

Since so many people edit the guides, we try to avoid first person pronouns, so I've edited out your mentions of yourself. We also use talk pages to discuss the editorial process; you can see some discussion on Talk:Asuncion.

Asuncion also needs a docent, if you'd like to answer questions about the city. You'll need to create a user account, though. --(WT-en) Evan 12:03, 15 December 2006 (EST)

If you're the person who added the information to the article about Burundi, any chance you could come up with a set of regions for the country that reflect the perspective of the traveler? We can use the 16 provinces if we have to, but government districts are often rather arbitrary, and these seem rather specific, so set of half a dozen (give or take a few) regions would probably be better. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 21:50, 6 June 2007 (EDT)

What do you think about it? I'm continually amazed at how Wikivoyage tries to interfere in Wikivoyage discussions and undermine our community. The ongoing discussion is a matter we (that's the community) are discussing. By asking what other people think about the topic, you are just trying to highlight the unsubstantiated suspected reasons others and I may have. What's the difference between the way Wikivoyage and Wikivoyage works? We actually discuss the problems and issues, rather than go over to Wikivoyage and point out why Wikivoyage has a condescending community of hardcore volunteers, who have no confidence in their own project that they continually hassle Wikivoyage and undermine the project and our community.

In the long run, no matter what you or anyone else tries to do. Wikivoyage will continue to have a strong community and be a strong project. Why? Because we can criticize ourselves and constantly reevaluate what will better serve the project, while WV does not focus on the core principle, but rather being the "competition". -- (WT-en) Sapphire • (Talk) • 17:38, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a look at Welcome, business owners and Project:Don't tout.

Wikivoyage is not meant to be a yellow pages, nor an advertising brochure, so please do not add listings for your business that have flowery, promotional language or that lack any useful information, in particular price ranges for rooms. Also do not list your listing more than once, and do not list it in a city other than the one it actually is in. Lastly, please do not include the city, state, and zip code in the address field. While yes, this is good for your search engine optimization, this is straightforwardly inappropriate on Wikivoyage, since the article name should indicate what city it is in.

Edits that do not follow these guidelines will be reverted. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 00:23, 17 June 2009 (EDT)

 * Hey, just wanted to add a thank you—your edits since my welcome are overwhelmingly positive and in-line with policy—keeping listings updated and properly sorted, rather than spamming new listings, is really useful.

Hotel marketing
Hello, 143.192.71.4! Thank you for contributing to Wikivoyage, but please note that one or more of your recent edits has been reverted as it appeared to be an attempt to use this site to advertise or promote a business or service. Wikivoyage is created by travellers for travellers, and while business owners and employees are welcome to contribute, use of this site for promotional purposes is not allowed.

If you feel that your edits were incorrectly identified as promotional, please read Wikivoyage's guidelines on identifying promotional edits. If, after reading that guideline, you still feel your edits were incorrectly removed, please use this talk page or the talk page of the article where your edit was removed to explain why your change was not promotional. Note that it is very important that you discuss your proposed change before re-adding it since repeated promotional edits can lead to a temporary block of your account's ability to edit Wikivoyage, and in serious cases the business in question may be blacklisted from Wikivoyage. -- Ryan • (talk) • 23:33, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Copyvios, political edits, etc.
I just reverted a major copyright violation from a clearly copyrighted site that you added to the Russia page. That is a violation of the policies of this site (which you violate often) and is also illegal.

This is hardly the first unwanted edit to come from your ip. I've watched, over the past year, you make countless edits to destinations in Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union that were rarely, if ever, in pursuit of the goals of this site. You still haven't stopped adding pointless links to the Serbo-Croatian disambiguation page, despite my bringing this up in countless edit summaries and on several talk pages. Like I've said elsewhere, the relationship between these languages/dialects (I don't care which they are) is an academic issue that should be addressed in, say, an encyclopedia, but not in a travel guide.

That doesn't even begin to address the endless stream of pointless edits you've made in pursuit of some political point of extremely low importance to a travel guide. These edits usually interrupt the prose of the articles into which you insert them, they rarely conform to the manual of style, and almost always constitute a degradation of our travel guides. Never, have I ever seen a positive edit from your ip that contributed new, un-opinionated information on where to go, what to see, what dishes to try, etc. Just the same repetitive, unwelcome blather and policy violations.

I would suggest that your goals are not in line with those of this site, indeed your goals seem at odds with them. Please take some time to read over the policies that outline Wikivoyages fundamental goals—those of creating the best, most up to date world-wide travel guide that there ever was—and seriously consider whether you should continue contributing here. Above all, please just stop wasting the time of those who are working towards Wikivoyage's goals. Personally, I'll be wasting less time going over your edits and trying to make them right, and will be more inclined to revert your edits without wasting more of my time writing edit summaries that you ignore. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 04:23, 22 January 2008 (EST)

How to list a guest house
Hi. You want to list your guest house, right? So why, instead of taking my suggestion, did you edit your listing to make it even worse? From my editing summary:

"Reverted per dt. Please EDIT OUT Unnecessary Capitals and mention of Tripadvisor and then repost. Thanks."

I'd add that you should also read wbo and Project:Accommodation listings.

You have two choices: List your guest house in the proper format and style for this site, or have your listing deleted and, eventually, your account blocked or other steps taken, if you refuse to pay attention to other users and the consensus we have reached.

 * Your edits continue to be removed as quickly as you make them. Listing a hotel in the United States of America article is silly - put the listing in the article about the town in which the hotel is located, don't write in the first person, and try to use proper formatting.

 * I'd like to re-iterate that current Wikivoyage policy does not allow marketers to add new listings to articles. You can correct mistakes in URLs or addresses for existing listings, but please do not add new listings or change subjective information in existing listings. -- Ryan • (talk) • 21:10, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a look at Welcome, business owners and Project:Don't tout.

Wikivoyage is not meant to be a yellow pages, nor an advertising brochure, so please do not add listings for your business that have flowery, promotional language or that lack any useful information, in particular price ranges for rooms. Also do not list your listing more than once, and do not list it in a city other than the one it actually is in. Lastly, please, oh please, do not include the city, state, and zip code in the address field. Think about it, there is absolutely no reason to do so, since the article name should indicate what city it is in.

Edits that do not follow these guidelines will be reverted. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 01:19, 30 April 2009 (EDT)

 * Additionally, please read Project:What is an article?. Single attractions don't get articles of their own, only listings in the one article covering the most specific geographical location.  - (WT-en) Dguillaime 16:21, 22 October 2009 (EDT)

 * Hi - our general rule is that listings added by hotel chain marketers are immediately reverted when they do not meet Wikivoyage standards - in this case, please provide price info, avoid promotional language and follow Project:Words to avoid. See also Project:Accomodation listings. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:16, 14 December 2009 (EST)

 * SEO has our most up-to-date guidelines that are relevant for you. Edits not in compliance with those guidelines will be reverted.  If you have questions feel free to ask here or on your user talk page, once you create one. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 10:30, 21 April 2010 (EDT)

 * Please note that any edits made from this IP address are being immediately reverted. Once you have read and understand the policies mentioned above, particularly SEO, please leave a message on this talk page or (preferably) create a user account and begin using it. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 13:01, 28 April 2010 (EDT)

Block
I have blocked you for a day, with the aim of getting you to read your talk page. You've had a year and a half to figure out how Wikivoyage works, and to see that we just undo your marketing edits as soon as you make them. I'm inclined to revert anything you do on sight until you actually respond here and clarify both your aims and how you plan to bring them in line with Wikivoyage policies and purpose. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 18:53, 27 August 2010 (EDT)

 * Hello,
 * I was unaware of all of the rules and guidelines before I began creating/editing listings. I have read the article about Project TOUT and the proper format the listings should be in. Moving forward, I will follow these guidelines when creating/editing listings.
 * Thank you! —The preceding comment was added by 151.193.220.28 (talk • contribs)

 * Please be aware that due to ongoing problems with hotel marketing organizations, the Don't tout policy is being changed to forbid marketers from adding new hotel listings to articles. You will be able to fix incorrect URLs or phone numbers on existing listings, but due to inherent conflicts of interest, marketers will no longer be permitted to add new listings.  See Wikivoyage_talk:Don%27t_tout for the discussion that led to this change, and note that the new policy is likely to be implemented very, very soon. -- Ryan • (talk) • 17:15, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

 * I'd like to re-iterate that Wikivoyage policies do not allow hotel marketers to add new listings or to update non-subjective information. You can fix phone numbers or URLs, but continuing to add new listings or to change property descriptions is not appropriate. -- Ryan • (talk) • 14:53, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Since marketing content continues to be added from this account I've blocked it from editing again, this time for a week. -- Ryan • (talk) • 19:56, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

The Michelle Peluso article you created is completely inappropriate for Wikivoyage, and has been deleted (again). A) It's about a person, not a place. B) It's a copyright violation. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 08:25, 29 June 2007 (EDT)

 * When spamming your hotels, I would greatly appreciate it if you would a) put them in the proper district article, b) not add the name of the town and zip in the address, c) add price ranges. Otherwise, they're liable to be removed. Thanks! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 17:23, 23 March 2009 (EDT)

 * In addition to what Peter wrote, please read SEO. Most of your listings are being removed as fast as you can add them. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 14:52, 9 April 2010 (EDT)

 * Please, please, please read our guidelines. Every contribution you have made has been removed, so you're wasting both your time and ours.  As a good rule of thumb, if you add a hotel listing to an article like Japan or New York City which has NO other listings, there is probably a reason why (hint: they're in the sub-articles). -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:26, 15 April 2010 (EDT)

Since the messages on this page are obviously not being read, all edits made from this IP address are currently being immediately reverted as they are clearly done solely for the purpose of hotel marketing and are in violation of our SEO policies. If the company making these edits is interested in working with us, please read SEO and leave a message on this talk page indicating that you have read and understand that guideline. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:10, 12 July 2010 (EDT)

 * I'd like to reiterate that per the new guidelines for marketers that you should not add new listings to Wikivoyage articles. If you have questions please ask, but please do not add any new listings. -- Ryan • (talk) • 21:15, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

 * This account has been blocked from editing for one week due to ongoing violations of Wikivoyage's prohibition against hotel marketing. -- Ryan • (talk) • 20:02, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Since new hotel listings are still being added by this account despite repeated mentions that marketers should not add new listings, I've blocked the account from editing again, this time for two weeks. -- Ryan • (talk) • 18:20, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

 * I've blocked this account again for the same reason, this time for a month. -- Ryan • (talk) • 18:30, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Blocked now for 3 months for this edit. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:53, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Shores Resort and Spa
Would you please STOP adding the "Shores Resort and Spa" to the Daytona Beach page. Shores Resort is located in Daytona Beach SHORES (hence the name of the hotel) where it is already listed. Every time I spot it listed in Daytona Beach, I shall delete it, so you may as well not bother trying to double list it again. (WT-en) gamweb 08:31, 15 March 2011 (EDT)

Hi and Welcome to Wikivoyage. I see you've been trying to add something to the Project:Local spam whitelist. The usual procedure is to add a note to the discussion page as to why a url belongs there, otherwise folks are likely to assume that perhaps it is someone trying to get around the blacklist for the wrong reasons.

At the same time, I notice that someone at this IP address (maybe you, maybe someone else on this computer) has three times deleted from the Vancouver/Kitsilano article the entry for Ro Sushi, and put in what I believe to be an incorrect spelling of "Spanish Banks" according to the Parks department website. I've reverted your changes to the Kitsilano article again. Please, if you have objections to the restaurant, or information that "Spanish Banks" is not a correct spelling, post a comment to the Talk:Vancouver/Kitsilano page.

Bosnia
It was an honest mistake. We all make those sometimes. And I don't particularly appreciate the reprimand there, because yes I do frequently remove things from pages, and that in itself is a form of contribution. I do far more removing and reorganizing than adding-- it's called editing, and it is an extremely important part of any wiki. The majority of the things I remove are indeed copyright violations, first person narratives, graffiti, spam, or they are links or other things which are out of line with Wikivoyage's policies. Sometimes sections get too long or contain extraneous information that causes the article to lose its focus and makes the pertinent information more difficult to locate, etc. The current version of the Bosnia eat section is a good example. While the tone of the text is right on, the section is a giant block of text, far bigger than the eat section for even China, with no subsections or bulleting, and it meanders a great deal, discussing stews in 3 different places, bread in two different places, etc. The one massive detailed paragraph about smoked meats is also probably more than the average traveller needs to know. The section is in need of a good editing, and I can't promise you that more text will not eventually be removed.(WT-en) Texugo 22:32, 31 January 2008 (EST)

Being a jerk
As in "real life," being a jerk online has consequences. I don't need to tell whoever has been posting from this IP address that your edits have been abusive. You know that and undoubtedly get your jollies from it. As a result, you have been blocked for one day. If you persist in vandalizing the site, you will be blocked for longer periods of time, up to and including forever. So go and waste your time and other people's time somewhere else, and come back here only if you're prepared to be constructive. (WT-en) Ikan Kekek 17:21, 11 May 2011 (EDT)

Hello! Welcome to Wikivoyage. Thanks for plunging forward so far. If you're going to continue working on Wikivoyage, you may find the tips for new contributors helpful.

You should also make sure you understand our copyleft and policies and guidelines. 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 or on the talk page for the most appropriate article.

Thanks for contributing to Tioman, but please note that the headings we use on our pages ("Understand", "See", "Do", etc) are part of our standard Article templates. They may sound a little funny, but they're a part of the Wikivoyage "brand" and one of the things that separates us from, say, Lonely Planet. 202.176.111.155 06:56, 3 May 2005 (EDT)

Nice work on the Indiana Dunes article! I'd love to see that page improved further—it's such a unique destination.

By the way, have you considered creating an account at Wikivoyage? It gives a bunch of benefits:
 * Easier communication — you will receive others' comments on your personal talk page, even if your future visits are from another IP.
 * Credit for your contributions — at the bottom of any article you edit.
 * Build a reputation — allow other Wikivoyagers to distinguish you from other anonymous users, and provide you with a greater level of trust.
 * Watchlist — a list of pages for which you want to keep track of future changes.
 * Become a Project:Docent — if you know a destination well and would like to share your knowledge.
 * Preferences menu — customize your Wikivoyage experience.

Thanks for your contributions to Fargo. I also wanted to let you know that I've added the article you started on Cafe Culture to Project:Votes for deletion. Don't take it personally of course! I'm just not sure an article on "significant events that happened in cafes, famous people and their cafes," fits in with out Project:What's an article?. I think the information would be a lot more helpful _on_ the city pages (i.e Paris, etc) as that's where travellers are going to look. That said, I'd love to see more cafe info on destination pages (beging a cafe culture type myself). I hope this doesn't put you off! Thanks --(WT-en) Majnoona 13:06, 6 Apr 2005 (EDT)

Florida has become home to many interesting people like every mexican that fell into our state. Like the movie I watched this morning,how expatiot traders were disinbaled before a live croud. If this prctice of justice was of the norm at one time why should we as a people of this great state not use this efective form of justice now. After all why should I as a indevidule have to put up with not only taxation without represontation and pay for the welfare of a people who take our U.S dollars and send it home to tether a socity of people who put up with their economic woes. I should at the very least should get to watch a few of these people suffer a indignent specticle of thier demize. As you mite can tell take exception to their exsistence in my state. So live and let die. So lets get together and make this specticle a reality of the great state of Florida. Let us open sport bars across the state and licence them to gut mexican illegalls in a fight to the death senario. It shall be called tdhe stinking worm cafe and bar. Kind of a secret code word for mexicans gutted here. Thank you for your interest in my investment idea.

"Idiot" comment
The "idiot" comment is unnecessarily strong, but please be aware that simply running in a "(foo) is a (place of some kind)" is not all that helpful, particularly if there is no destination named (foo). Please look carefully at the criteria for what constitutes an article/destination. If you contribute things that are actually destinations, your work will be appreciated. If you just throw out random stuff not meeting the criteria, it won't be, we'll just have to clean it up, and you may get some invective out of it, humans being what we are. P.S. As Maj says, please use the templates; that at least shows good faith. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 12:00, 14 July 2006 (EDT)

How to start a page
So here are some steps you can follow if you want to be helpful:

 * 1) Check to see if the place you want to add has a hotel. You can use Google maps, type in the name of the place and the word "hotel" and see if it finds anything.
 * 2) Only if there is a hotel Start the page and type the following: Or (this is easier) click the link that says "City" just above the place where you enter text.
 * 3) Save the page
 * 4) If you like, you can click "Edit" and add the name and address of the hotel under the Sleep section.

Too much information, and too poorly organized
A listing of every single intercontinental flight that doesn't land in the U.S. is going to be impossible to maintain, and isn't very helpful when organized by airline.

Hello!

Welcome to Wikivoyage and thanks for your contributions to the article about avoiding a transit of the United States. Why don't you try setting up a user account? After that, your contributions to Wikivoyage will be attributed to you (rather than to an IP address). Besides, you will have a lot of other options available for registered users that can improve your activity here. (WT-en) Ricardo (Rmx) 13:28, 8 August 2006 (EDT)

Too many minor edits
Also, making loads of minor subsequent edits makes it harder for users to keep track of modifications to an article. The article's history gets much longer, the Recent changes page gets cluttered and you too, have to hit the save button a lot. Perhaps you should consider finishing a larger set of edits before hitting save so that instead of dozens of minor changes, we'd have a couple of more significant modifications.

I don't think the list of Scenic railway lines in Europe you've been creating would be particularly useful in that form, and it would be nearly impossible to maintain, so I've redirected that page to Rail travel in Europe. If you you want to discuss this and maybe figure out a way this topic can be covered effectively in Wikivoyage, that'd be fine, but I don't want you to put any more effort into that until there's a consensus that it would be useful. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 15:26, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage! I've noticed you're making a lot of progress adding selected train routes to articles in Europe.
