Hi Tony - thanks for your contribution to the Swansea/Gower article. However, I have unfortunately had to delete your edit. Wikivoyage has a strict policy that only allows external links to primary sources (i.e. in the case of a restaurant to the restaurant's own web site). Please see: Project:External links. This is to prevent the guide merely becoming a list of external links to on-line magazines and booking agencies rather than being a source of information itself. However, as you obviously have exhaustive knowledge of the culinary delights of the Swansea area, we would welcome any information you could add to the 'Eat' and 'Drink' sections on both the Swansea/Gower and Swansea articles. Cheers, and apologies again for having to delete your efforts. (WT-en) WindHorse 06:23, 25 April 2007 (EDT)

p.s... how are you envisioning the new page that you created, National Park Guide? We already have United States National Parks, and Yosemite National Park. P.S., have a look at the latter, we're trying to get it in shape for star status, it's pretty near where we want it to be, but since you know so much about Yosemite, maybe you can see if anything has changed or if there's anything essential that has been left out?

Thank you for your contribution to New Zealand. To help get you continue contributing, you can check the tips for new contributors page and the manual of style.

In the changes you made, you changed the name of a tour company to another tour company. If the company has changed names, then this is a helpful thing to do, but best to note that this is what you have done in the comments for the revision, otherwise someone might revert the change if they don't understand why it was changed.

Hi. This page is for people's comments to you. If you want a practice page, you can do it at User:(WT-en) Tossy/Sandbox.

Sagamihara Practice Page is a city in Kanagawa.

Get in
Visitors reach Sagamihara on the JR Yokohama Line at Kobuchi, Fuchinobe, Yabe, or Sagamihara stations.

See

 * There are beautiful cherry blossams in spring.

 * This place is the best
 * sashimi

Get out
Hachiōji Practice (八王子) is in the western part of Tokyo.

Understand
Gained city status on the 1st September 1917. Population in 2004 was about 530,000.

By air
If coming from Narita Airport, take the JR Narita Express to Tokyo station, and change for the Chuo Line for service to Hachioji (about 2 1/4 hours, ¥3670). It is a real climb all the way up to the Chuo platforms, but since Chuo line trains start at Tokyo station, odds are you will probably find a seat. The alternative is to continue on the Narita Express to Shinjuku and from there board the Chuo Line, or the less-expensive Keio Line.

If you have a Japan Rail Pass, and if the timing is right, you may be able to reserve a Kaiji or Azusa train from Shinjuku and have a more comfortable journey to Hachioji.

One daily Narita Express does run from the airport straight to Hachioji in the evening, and there is one Narita Express from Hachioji to the airport in the early morning.

Six daily airport limousine buses run from Narita to both the JR and Keio Hachioji train stations in about 2 hours, 40 minutes (¥3700). As of September 2008, departures from Narita are at 7:50, 9:10, 15:10, 16:40, 18:10 and 20:40.

From Haneda Airport, the easiest way to Hachioji by train is to take the Keikyu Line to Shinagawa, from where you can take the JR Yamanote Line in either direction, to either Tokyo or Shinjuku station, to pick up the Chuo Line for Hachioji. It costs ¥1180 no matter which way you go; allow about 1 3/4 hours. Slightly faster, but requiring an extra transfer, is to travel via Yokohama.

Six daily limousine buses go from Haneda to the JR and Keio Hachioji train stations in about 1 1/2 to 2 hours (¥1700). As of September 2008, departures from Haneda are at 12:30, 15:40, 17:25, 19:25, 21:00 and 22:25.

By train
From Tokyo Station, hop on a JR Chuo Line train departing from platforms 1 and 2 for the ride to Hachioji (50-60 minutes, ¥780).

From Shinjuku, you can reach Hachioji in as little as 38 minutes, either via the Chuo Line, or via tokkyū trains on the Keio line (¥460 on JR; ¥350 on Keio).

By car
Chou Express onramp and exit From Akirunoshi through the number16 road to Hachioji.

By bus
Overnight buses run into and out of Keio Hachioji station. Services run from Kyoto (Tama Bus/Keihan Bus; ¥7950 one way; ¥14310 round-trip), Osaka (Tama Bus/Kintetsu Bus; ¥8250 one way; ¥14770 round-trip) and Kanazawa (Tama Bus/Hokuriku Railroad; ¥8250 one way; ¥14850 round-trip)

See

 * Sagami Lake. A popular spot to see summer fireworks.
 * Imperial Mausoleum (多摩御陵 Tama Goryō). The burial site of Emperor Hirohito and his predecessor Yoshihito.
 * Movie theater13-4,Yokoyama-cho,Hachioji-shi,0426-22-0116,(10min from the Hachioji station north exit)

 * Tric art museum. This is an interesting museum near Takao mountain station. It would takes you only 1 minute to get there from the station. It's easily accesible. There are many unique arts like photographs. This is a museum contains arts and amusement. What is more, it is said that the unique arts are good for your brain.

 * Hachioji Firework. It is held in Hachioji citizen ball park in the latter part of July.
 * Trace of Hachioji castle. It has the hard-fought field's trace of the Warring State Period, also you can see Sagami Bay from the lookout of the mountaintop.

Do
Mt. Takao is a 600-meter peak that is easily accessible by a combination of cable car and hiking, giving a little taste of nature in Tokyo. It is popular in the fall to see the changing color of the leaves, however springtime is also a nice time because you can see many beautiful cherry blossoms.

Start at the Takaosan-guchi (高尾山口) station of the Keio Line (this is the last stop). Just outside of the station a large map indicates hiking trails in the area. The first part of the main trail is steep, this can be avoided with a cable car or chairlift ride (6 min./¥470, ¥900 round trip). Once you get off the cable car, there are shops selling food and souvenirs. There is also Monkey Park, where for ¥400 yen (children ¥200) you can watch a demonstration (in Japanese) and learn about Japanese Macaques in this zoo-like exhibit. There is also a beer garden which offers an all-you-can-eat-and-drink course for around ¥3000, a welcome reward on the return trip for a couple hours of hiking. From there, it is about a 50-minute walk to the top of Takaosan (高尾山頂). However, there are many lesser traveled routes also available that may take longer but are more scenic. On the main route (Path 1) there are shrines and more food vendors. The entire path is paved, although there are steep stairs in places.

At the top of the mountain there is a visitor center, restaurant, and viewing platform where Mount Fuji is visible.

Leaving from Shinjuku, board a Keio Line express or semi-express train bound for Takaosan-guchi station (47 minutes/¥370), which is the end of the line. Note that not all Shinjuku departures go to Takaosan-guchi. Some semi-express trains bound for Kitano actually switch to local trains for Takaosan-guchi, which are convenient. Round One　We can play bowling, and there are some amusement or games. Hachioji Festival in august

Buy

 * SOGO: It is the department store of the station square.
 * Book Off: A lot of used comics,CDs,DVDs,novels,games, and magazins are in there.
 * Yodobashi Camera: A lot of electrical appliances are in there. Cameras,DVDs,IPODs,TVs,VIDEOs,etc...are in there.
 * Shopping arcade: There are many kinds of shop in the shoppong arcade. For example, cloth, Ramen, perfume,supermarket, etc... Perfume store is cheap.

Splurge

 * Ukai Toriyama (うかい鳥山), Minami Asakawa 3426 (near Takaosanguchi Station), tel. 042-661-0739, . The highlight of many travelers' visits to Japan, and is a favorite destination for many Japanese to take their guests from overseas. The food doesn't challenge the non-Japanese palate too much — mostly chicken and sashimi, and to order you just pick one of three dinner sets. The great thing about this restaurant is the ambience. The restaurant comprises a number of traditional cottages situated within a beautifully maintained garden. Prices for lunch and dinner are not outrageous, you will probably spend between ¥5,000 and ¥10,000. Of course, you will run up a bill if you drink plenty - be careful!  Reservations are required.
 * Tips: If you're coming from Tokyo, give yourself ample time to get there (especially if you might get confused by the trains). The restaurant is a short drive from the station, so plan to pay for a taxi each way as well. It's good to arrive early — give yourself time to walk around the garden. If possible, go in a group of at least four people. The restaurant is open for lunch, but if you go for dinner, you can enjoy the lanterns lighting the grounds.

Drink

 * Sherlock Holmes Pub, Misaki-cho 4-1 (2 minutes from the station north exit, on the pedestrian arcade to the left), 0426-27-4869. For once, a pub in Tokyo that's English, not Irish.

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. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted.

I see you are a Wikipedian, or have previously used Wikipedia, then you may notice some differences in the style of our articles. Some of the changes are:
 * "Village Pump" -> travellers' pub
 * "be bold" -> plunge forward
 * "sandbox" -> graffiti wall
 * "stub notes" -> Article status notes
 * "External links" -> We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate them into the text.

Hi, and welcome! I'm curious as to what the relationship is between these two articles. Hermit Island seems to be part of Phippsburg.

Images
I've noticed you're uploading a lot of photos for the Nantucket article. A couple of things about these: (WT-en) Hypatia 21:36, 7 October 2007 (EDT)
 * you used the full size images in the article. It's better by far to use a thumbnail. Have a look at How to an an image for how to thumbnail
 * photographs can be uploaded to Wikivoyage Shared, which lets people writing in other languages use the images. Once you upload to Shared, you can use the photo or make a thumbnail in exactly the same way.

Copyrights
Hi there. Please stop adding copyrighted material to Humboldt. It is not acceptable to copy text from cityofhumboldt.ca or any other website with rights reserved without first seeking express permission to use it here and then posting evidence of that on the talk page of the article in question. If you have any questions, drop me a line. (WT-en) Texugo 13:06, 18 August 2009 (EDT)

 * Hello, Tourismhumboldt. Based on your name, I'd guess you have some official relationship with the community of Humboldt, SK.  Trouble is, we don't know that for sure; from here, it looks like you're just copying information from Humboldt's web site, and that's not allowed.  Please communicate with us so we can work together to create a great travel guide instead of just removing the information you're adding.  (WT-en) LtPowers 17:28, 18 August 2009 (EDT)

 * Hello, Texugo. I am with the City of Humboldt and all of the information being put on there is our own work. It is from the City of Humboldt website but we wrote all of the write ups.  —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Tourismhumboldt (talk • contribs).

 * Thanks for your reply. If you have read about our licensing and have the power to relicense the text yourself, please put a note to that extent on the talk page of the Humboldt article as soon as possible. Without it we will be forced to delete the text again.
 * Also, a quick note-- area attractions outside city limits belong in the Get out section at the bottom, not in the See section. Please stop moving them back up there. Thanks! (WT-en) Texugo 20:47, 19 August 2009 (EDT)

Some spammer keeps including garbage links. I removed them (again). These pointed to various online booking engines through which it is not actually possible to book a hotel in Famagusta. I did leave the link that points to an actual agent for a real Famagusta hotel. I'm not sure whether that particular one has a brothel and/or casino, but it really is in Famagusta at least.

If you post links, please ensure that they are specific and meaningful. Ideally, you should not stand to personally gain from people clicking on those links. If neither of the above is the case, you're spamming WikiTravel!

Hokianga
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of Hokianga—it is always great to see an expert drop by! I have made a few formatting changes and shifted content between the region and city pages, based on our Project:Manual of style and Project:Geographical hierarchy. If you are of a mind to add more information and really make the Hokianga guide great, you might want to check out Project:Region article template and Project:Small city article template to get ideas about what sort of information would be helpful. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 12:31, 20 July 2007 (EDT)

Northland hierarchy
Sorry to be slow about answering questions—there is a huge arts festival in Baltimore that has captured my attention this weekend. One of Wikivoyage's more prominent conventions is that it is town-centric; non-settlement attractions nearly always get included in the nearest town, rather than an article of their own. The main reason why we do this (I think) is to keep article formats standardized. The only real exception to this rule are large parks with a lot of attractions and places to sleep/eat. I would say that a non-settlement destination probably will only get an article if it would require a tourist-map. The region pages mostly serve to tease readers into specific town destinations. So the Wairere valley hotels do belong on the nearest town of note, which my satellite seems to tell me is Horeke. It should be fine, I think, so long as we clearly indicate that these two hotels are to the south of the town by Wairere.

Also, just to clarify things a bit, the get in section is most useful when it gives a specific explanation of routes into the town/region. For example: "Road X will take you straight to Horeke from place Y. The journey takes only 45 minutes, but the road is unpaved." Get out is a way to highlight nearby destinations, e.g., "*The picturesque town of Rawene is just 25 minutes away by car". Get around is a good place to let travelers know whether they can easily cover a town on foot, or if they need some other form of transport. And the "see" section on region pages is (somewhat oddly) reserved for itineraries only, so the attractions like the Koutu Boulders (which look amazing) should go under "Other destinations." Sorry if any of this is confusing!

I'm very glad to see you are organizing the Northland geographical hierarchy, as only someone familiar with the area can do that well. The navigation chain at the top of pages is explained at Project:Breadcrumb navigation. In short, use the isIn template, isin: Next_region_up_the_hierarchy at the bottom of any page and the navigation should appear. Unfortunately, this template is not perfect, and it needs the underscores, rather than spaces, between words. I did this myself on Far Far North as an example.

Lastly, I just wanted to thank you again for taking an interest and I look forward to more Northland content! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 03:29, 22 July 2007 (EDT)

Avoiding congestion and duplicate listings
Who makes these policies? Really, anyone who edits Wikivoyage makes them. Most policies grow out of common practice—if most everyone is doing things one way and it works, we'll write that up as a policy. If there is disagreement, we'll discuss until we can come up with a consensus satisfactory to everyone (or at least almost everyone). If you want to change an existing policy, the best way is to leave a message with your rationale on the policy talk page. To put through new changes, you will usually have to first build a consensus for the change on the talk page.

The Project:Image policy might have something regarding how many images/when to use images that I'm not remembering, but common practice is to avoid adding a single image to multiple pages. It is fine to link to a certain attraction from multiple region articles, but the actual listing (the details) should only go on the one city/town article. The way we control the number of linked attractions/towns/regions/etc on region articles is to limit each section to 5–9 listings. 9 is a bit of an arbitrary limit, but there is at least a rationale for it and a limit is necessary. This is why most well-maintained country articles only list a representative sample of 9 cities (New Zealand right now has too many—could you help trim the cities and other destinations to 9?).

When deciding what to list (or what to show in photographs) on a given region, common practice is to choose the most prominent (i.e., most visited) attractions/destinations and to try to represent different regions equally. So in England, for example, we try to make our 9 cities the most visited cities and, as best as we can, one from each subregion. Also, please remember that natural attractions should be listed under "see" only on the city article, while they should be listed under "Other destinations" on region articles. Hope this helps! --(WT-en) Peter Talk 10:02, 22 July 2007 (EDT)

 * I just wanted to add that if you are looking for a good example of content organization, check out Russia. There isn't always a lot of content there (we need more Russian contributors!), but I've gone through that pretty meticulously to make sure everything is organized how we like it. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 10:06, 22 July 2007 (EDT)

NZ cities and "featuring" attractions/images
First, regarding the cities on the main New Zealand page, I understand your point that New Zealand's principal cities are only three (they are the only ones that I could locate from memory), but it's still probably best to keep some other lesser known cities on the main page. 5-9 is never an overwhelming number and we can indicate in a brief introduction to the section (or in the short city descriptions) that Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch are the main cities. The main concern with city lists on country pages is that all sorts of contributors come by and add their favorites or hometowns, causing the country articles to become overloaded with content belonging in region articles. Accordingly, we like to have 9 listed so we can point to the rule that mandates no more than 9. Probably the best thing to do here is to just choose one of the 10 to remove (although we are obviously not removing it from its respective region articles). My hunch is that Gisborne is the one we should remove, but I just don't know that much about NZ.

Second, our common practice of featuring well-visited attractions is more of a rule-of-thumb than a hard policy. If you think it makes sense to deviate from this practice please do so (as long as you are ready to defend your reasoning). But keep in mind that our ultimate purpose in content organization is to make things convenient for the traveler—if a lot of people are looking for Waitangi, then we should make it easy to find. There are other ways, though, to get your personal favorite destinations featured on the site—the best way is of course to make their articles really good. If the Far North content becomes some of our best content, Wikivoyage will feature it as an example of our best content (see Project:Star articles and Project:Destination of the Month candidates).

 * I just thought of one other good way to feature some of the content you have been working on. My understanding is that New Zealand has a lot of interesting geology-related attractions. Perhaps you could write a section for the main New Zealand article about NZ's geology attractions, in which you could provide a link to Hokianga? --(WT-en) Peter Talk 01:05, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

Itineraries
I noticed your intriguing new itineraries for Hokianga. Is there any chance that I could persuade you to make them into formal Project:Itineraries? This is the template that we use for itineraries, and an excellent example itinerary is Route 66. A formal itinerary (or two!) would be nice, I think, because it would give you a lot more room to really go into the details.

On a somewhat related note, as itineraries are best with maps, I was looking at the Hokianga map that you uploaded—do you have the licensing information for it? We need to know who is its author and whether it is compatible with our Project:Copyleft in order to keep it on Wikivoyage. If it is not compatible with our copyleft, that is not a tragedy; I am fairly handy with maps (like the ones here and here) and would be happy to make a Hokianga region map. It would actually be quite easy, in fact, to make a very accurate one from NASA satellite imagery. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 01:51, 28 July 2007 (EDT)

 * I am confused, why would you consider the addition of Italian hotels to Wikivoyage including only the name & contact details without any promotional language at all be considered advertising!! I feel the addition of accommodation details with a direct link to the hotel's official site, to be a useful addition to the usefulness of Wikivoyage. (WT-en) Travelbubble 15:30, 28 June 2007 (CET)
 * Most of your contributions on most language versions I have looked at is about accommodation. Why? Do you just google hotels on various locations and then transfer them to Wikivoyage? Do you think that is acceptable quality? You seem to use some sort of auto-translator to provide information which consequently is of little or no use: "hotel this and that on street this and that". What's the point in just listing hotels? Can you, for example, vouch for their classification of standard? Wikivoyage uses the same guidelines regardless of which language version you work on, including sv:. We have had heaps of problems with anonymous users (with IP:s in Spain and Italy) adding hotels in Spain and Italy, and you apparently use a spanish IP address. Until you prove you're not working for a hotel aggregator site/company, you will remain banned on Wikivoyage in swedish. (WT-en) Riggwelter 13:06, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

User talk:(WT-en) TravelCLICK

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 17:52, 26 May 2009 (EDT)

 * Allow me to expand on that a bit:

 * 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. 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. Please avoid describing your hotel as being "located near prominent attractions." If it is across the street from a major attraction, say that—otherwise let your address do the talking. Do not list every mundane amenity your hotel offers—no one cares about your desk chairs or coffee makers, or the "high speed" internet. Don't ever use the words "spacious" or "luxurious."

 * Please don't add listings that lack any useful information, in particular price ranges for rooms. If there is something unique about your hotel, please include this in the description, but the pricing is the single most important bit of information that you can provide. We know that your prices fluctuate—this why we use price ranges, or at least a price bottom (not including discounted rates...) like "from $110." Third, you have to add the hotels to the price-sort categories of budget/mid-range/splurge—it's just not ok to leave them unsorted (alphabetical order applies too).

 * Please do not format your listings to improve your SEO. Your hotel's name does not need to be repeated in the description. Nor do you need to include the city, state, and zip code in the address field (since the article name tells you what town you're in). Likewise, don't describe the town in your listing—it should already be described in the rest of the article.

 * Back to the note about yellow pages. We don't want endless amounts of info-less hotel listings in our articles. If you want to add yours, make sure that the quality of your listing is better than the others present on the page already. That will increase the likelihood that we keep it.

 * Edits that do not follow these guidelines will be reverted. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 18:08, 24 September 2009 (EDT)

If you are a Wikipedian, or have previously used Wikipedia, then you may notice some differences in the style of our articles. Some of the changes are:

 * "Village Pump" -> travellers' pub
 * "be bold" -> plunge forward
 * "sandbox" -> graffiti wall
 * "stub notes" -> Article status notes

Kirk i have been reading some but it hurts to here me sound like a child... (WT-en) Traveler2006 14:56, 28 March 2006 (EST) sorry if i'am being insulting but iam not i just need to be "guided" into the travel? (WT-en) Traveler2006 14:56, 28 March 2006 (EST)

 * I don't believe you're being insulting or in any way negative. You're trying your best to contribute to WikiTravel and everyone appreciates that.  However, Tom and I are trying to guide you by pointing you toward the policies and procedures we use here on WikiTravel.  By adhereing to these standards, WikiTravel will maintain a consistent format and be useful to everyone.

 * The articles you've started, while helpful, do not fall in line with our policies for a standalone article. Information about bus lines should be in that city's "Get Around" or "Get In" sections.  Information about an attraction should be in the city's "See" or "Do" section.  Only in very rare occasions do attractions, bus lines or other items get their own article.

 * Please take a few moments to read over the articles mentioned above and you will understand what we're trying to accomplish. Again, thank you very much for your enthusiasism and effort - it won't go to waste!  -- (WT-en) Ilkirk 15:01, 28 March 2006 (EST)

TY! (WT-en) Traveler2006 15:03, 28 March 2006 (EST) bye for now hope tomorrow it will be better! (WT-en) Traveler2006 15:03, 28 March 2006 (EST)

Slow Down
Dude, your enthusiasm is great, but please slow down and do some reading before you create any more new articles or upload pictures. Wikivoyage has some very specific guidelines for what kind of articles we want, and how to put them together. If you don't follow those guidelines, you'll just be making more work for everybody else. (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 14:59, 28 March 2006 (EST)

Allright i chill! sorry lol i will step back and watch! (WT-en) Traveler2006 15:00, 28 March 2006 (EST)

Helping and Hindering
If at any time you wish to help out here, learn and do so -- you need not protest that you are not feeling the love sufficiently. We will judge your contributions by their content, not by your past behaviour. And you probably shouldn't much expect your questions to be answered given the deep appearance of insincerity in your use of questions in the past. Again, if you choose to do actual work here, that's fine. Once you have shown through your actions that you are serious, you might then expect people to take you seriously enough to answer your questions -- but not before. -- (WT-en) Colin 17:00, 28 March 2006 (EST)

Free tutoring
The thing that I love about WikiTravel is sometimes when you use the search to find an answer to a question you have and for whatever reason you are unable to find the appropriate article just ask any of us on our Talk pages and we'll give you an answer or direct you to one.

Of course it's wise to read over all the policies and templates, because it will save you and everyone else time. Feel free to ask away. Auf Wiedersehen, (WT-en) Sapphire 19:36, 28 March 2006 (EST)

Yes i need it! (WT-en) Traveler2006 11:21, 30 March 2006 (EST)

 * How far is Burton from Cincy? That way I can start looking for info. Thanks (WT-en) Sapphire 05:30, 29 March 2006 (EST)

Just to let everyone know I need not add Mount Ararat! (WT-en) Traveler2006 09:45, 29 March 2006 (EST)

Broken promise
You said you would stop. So cut it out. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 10:02, 29 March 2006 (EST)

What? you lier! (WT-en) Traveler2006 10:04, 29 March 2006 (EST)

You said, "i will step back and watch!" You aren't doing that. Instead you are disrupting Wikivoyage, which is boring us all. Stop it. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 10:17, 29 March 2006 (EST)

Welcome!
Hello! Welcome to Wikivoyage. I would recommend to start with our Tips for new contributors if you feel like it. 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. 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 the whole wiki software 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.

Great to see all those great edits to Novosibirsk! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message. --(WT-en) Peterfitzgerald Talk 21:23, 2 May 2007 (EDT)

Exernal links
The reason we don't like to link to other websites is 1. the information should be in Wikivoyage and we shouldn't be lazy or whatever to say 'go look at this website because we're too lazy to add the info in the article.' 2. The only websites that we link to are those we're cooperating with like Wikipedia or World66 and primary sources. For example if there's a Marriott Hotel in Las Vegas we'll link to Marriott's website. Here's the low down on external links. -- (WT-en) Sapphire 16:35, 10 August 2006 (EDT)

 * Thank you for these comments but I do not think we are being too consistent with this policy. In many of the Hawaii pages we have links to clothing, food and other sites.  Does not fit what you said.

I personally know that when I was looking for a trip to Hawaii (or anywhere else for that matter) Wikipedia would have helped a lot if there was relevant and "experienced" information about accommodations (people have to sleep) and the service that goes along with that. Agencies provide tons more service than calling a hotel reservations or reception desk and speaking to a clerical person about your $4,000 trip to a far off land.

Finally, as I wrote in the Discussion part of the Maui document: "I have looked at Goals etc and found the item "For on-line use by travellers still planning to review destinations, plan itineraries, make reservations, and get excited about their trip;" particularly interesting. Don't you think that helping people with their online searches for Maui (and Hawaii generally also) would suit that goal? I would like to reinstate but I do not want to be rude - what do you recommend?... (WT-en) Traveler7277 19:41, 10 August 2006 (EDT)

Link removal on Tijuana article
I removed the link to http://www.findlocalguide.net/ because that kind of external link is expressly discouraged by our external links policy. Now on second look, I think perhaps the picture should be removed as well because that website (from which it was taken) doesn't specify whether that particular picture is licensed as GNU or Sharealike 1.0. If it is GNU, it's a no-no. Do you have any more specific info on the licensing of that picture, as to which one it is? This may be the same picture Todd was referring to above.

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a good look at Project:Don't tout and our policy on tours.

shimla

Pine forests and apple orchards, crisp, clean air and breathtaking views - that's Shimla in a nutshell. Sprawled over 12 kms on a crescent shaped ridge, Shimla is the largest hill station and erstwhile summer capital of the British in India. Descending in layers from the top of the ridge, at 2,213 metres, Shimla straddles several hills, including the Jakhu, Prospect Hill, Observatory Hill, Elysium Hill and Summer Hil
