Travel Guides
It's deleted now, but for those having admin rights it can be visible.

I can put its content to a separate page under User:DenisYurkin if someone may be interested. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 07:03, 1 April 2008 (EDT)

the very first discussion for this page
Traditional, paper travel guides may be considered competing with Wikivoyage, but normally they are not in most cases: we use both for different purposes and information.

That's not the case; our goal with Wikivoyage is to make open-source, peer-created versions of these travel guides. I don't want a page recommending that people ignore our guides and go use proprietary ones instead. --(WT-en) Evan 11:00, 30 November 2006 (EST)

 * That's right, we aim to become major competitor for paper guides; but it's really far-far from being reality today. How many countries can we name for which Wikivoyage can be a sufficient substitute for a guidebook for traveller? 1? 3? That means that for the rest of the world of destinations we are far from the goal that we all share, which means that people do and will use paper guides for a long time. We can either ignore that, stay with illusion that they don't use (and even don't need to use) anything beyond Wikivoyage--OR we can help them to find a right guide for their needs in addition to Wikivoyage before we conquer the World :-). I think 2nd way is better. What is your opinion?
 * BTW, I never said we'd like people to ignore our guides. I'm just trying to help them a better complement to their Wikivoyage experience, basing on their different needs. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 11:36, 30 November 2006 (EST)
 * When I started off on Wikivoyage I created a similar page, which was deleted. I could have sworn that other guides were useful, but since then I reexamined some of paper guides and I've noticed that if you stack them up against Wikivoyage other guides are nearly useless.  One of my least favorite experiences was looking for this jazz club and according to Lonely Planet it was on Arnulfstraße.  I spent an hour walking back and forth on Arnulfstraßse and on the alleyways that lined the street.  Finally, I gave up looking for the place and nearly a month later I saw an advertisement for the place and I discovered that it was actually on Einsteinstraße.  The unique thing  about Wikivoyage is its ability to remain up-to-date and rarely be out-of-date, but the only reason that possible is if we don't recommend alternatives to Wikivoyage. -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 12:02, 30 November 2006 (EST)

 * > but the only reason that possible is if we don't recommend alternatives to Wikivoyage.
 * Could you elaborate this? Why leaving people without information on other guides help Wikivoyage so much to remain up-to-date?
 * Secondly, same question as to Evan: could you list countries where you can go using no paper guides, but planning your trip entirely on information from Wikivoyage (and no other guides)?
 * I mean: yes, we are more up-to-date in quite a few countries, but for everything rest we have much less details and practical advice right now than in paper guides for that countries. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 12:48, 30 November 2006 (EST)

 * I've used Wikivoyage guides exclusively when I travel since... early 2004, say? My last few trips have been to Cambridge (Massachusetts), Copenhagen, Bay Area (California). I've found all the guides to be really good. I really like going to places where there's not much info in the Wikivoyage guide (we're off to Lake Placid this weekend, for example): I look forward to doing some research while I'm travelling.

 * Making a travel guide supplement is an explicit non-goal. We want to make an open source replacement for Lonely Planet or Rough Guides books (that LP or RG could use!), not just comment on them. We don't have lots of links to external Web travel guides on our destination pages for the same reasons; I think it slows down the level of contribution and gives the wrong impression to readers. It's a question of incentive.

 * That all said, I guess one of our main advantages is that we're a pretty open project. Picking a travel guide is one of the things travellers need to, so I guess it's in play as a travel topic. I wish that people who are reading and contributing to Wikivoyage would pick Wikivoyage, but I guess some people won't. --(WT-en) Evan 14:26, 30 November 2006 (EST)

 * I, unfortunately, haven't been able to use Wikivoyage guides as often as I would like to (throw that up to the economy), but when I do Wikivoyage guides usually prove more valuable than any paper guide does.
 * If I have to resort to a paper guide I check the American guide books of certain brands and always check the page on Cincinnati, which unfortunately is often deigned to half a page! What's even more appalling is that the information provided is often outdated by two or more years!  Wikivoyage may not be able to cover every destination as well as we'd prefer, but that also means we can almost safely assume that paper guides also are unable to adequately keep up-to-date guide books.  The big difference between them and us is that anyone can come along and improve our coverage, while Lonely Planet has to wait upto five years for information to updated or replaced. -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 14:49, 30 November 2006 (EST)

 * In general I agree with the majority on this. I don't see much usefulness in a separate article on rival guides (which is what we're really talking about, rather than paper / printed). As I wrote here I'm not against the idea of mentioning specific rival guides in specific situations. (Incidentally I found this bit of info very useful and am glad I saw it before it was deleted). But as a general article, this doesn't really qualify as a travel topic. (More of a meta-topic? Hmmm, how about a guide on how to choose other travel guides? -- "accomodations listings are more important than transportation routes..." :) )

 * Another problem I see in this article is future growth. How could it expand much beyond a few paragraphs on each series (consisting basically of "good accomodations listings, bad restaurant reviews, aimed at independent backpackers", etc.)? And the rival guide series are themselves quite limited in number. Everyone knows Lonely Planet, most people know Fodor's and Rough Guide. So what else is there worth mentioning?　-- (WT-en) Paul Richter 21:37, 7 February 2007 (EST)

 * Paul, thanks for following up. BTW, what specifically did you find useful in this piece, assuming everyone knows Lonely Planet?
 * The best, and currently only travel guide book to PNG is the Lonely Planet Papua New Guinea.
 * --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 22:38, 7 February 2007 (EST)

 * The statement that it was the only guide saved me from looking around for a RoughGuide PNG, Nelles PNG, 地球の歩き方 PNG (Japanese equivalent of LP) etc... Seriously! -- (WT-en) Paul Richter 21:55, 5 March 2007 (EST)

 * As long as it was useful, why don't we discuss allowing pieces like this in articles on specific destinations? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 00:24, 6 March 2007 (EST)

Continued in Votes for deletion, then in Travellers' pub.

discussion in the Pub
swept in from the pub

Recently I have started a page aimed to help travellers to choose a paper travel guide in addition to using Wikivoyage--especially for destinations which are not detailed enough at Wikivoyage. We had a long discussion on whether it can exist as official Wikivoyage article, and by guilty-until-proven-innocent principle decided that it is not yet (see (WT-en) VFD discussion for details). However, (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill encouraged to continue working on the article in personal namespace: User:(WT-en) DenisYurkin/Paper travel guides.

I am here to invite more enthusiasts willing to develop the idea to help travellers to choose travel guide--and to make it without conflict to Wikivoyage goals. Welcome to join me at User:(WT-en) DenisYurkin/Paper travel guides, and please consider User:(WT-en) DenisYurkin/VFD:Paper travel guides for the controversy we had. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 09:03, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * Actually, Denis, it was decided that that article was contrary to Wikivoyage's goals. Articles like this have been through VfD twice; it was out of respect for your work on Wikivoyage that this article wasn't simply speedy-deleted this time (as would normally happen).

 * If you'd like to recover this article, it needs to go through Project:votes for undeletion, like other deleted articles. --(WT-en) Evan 12:10, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * Evan, just to let you know Denis is receiving conflicting information. -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 12:14, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * That's strange. I thought that the Project:Deletion policy was pretty clear on this. Denis, is there part of that page that's not clear? --(WT-en) Evan 12:25, 21 December 2006 (EST)
 * Having written the "conflicting information," let me weigh in here. The challenge before Denis is to find some way, if possible, of accommodating the different viewpoints about an article like this.  It is no more constructive to say there "must not" be such an accommodation than that there "must" be one.  The question is whether there can be one.  At this point the verdict is still out on that, although I tend to suspect there cannot.  Perhaps Denis, and those who work with him, will succeed in proving me (and you) wrong.

 * As for his page, I don't see anything inappropriate in any way about using it as a "sandbox" to try to produce something that works. There is precedent for that; remember the User:(WT-en) Daniel575 fracas of earlier this year?  The outcome on that one turned out to be a page that satisified enough people regarding appropriateness (myself not among them, btw) that the page endures.  I believe we owe Denis a similar amount of rope -- with the proviso that it will remain ONLY a sandbox unless and until the objections have been dealt with and something agreed appropriate has been written. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 12:37, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * I agree with Evan that this is shouldn't be a recruiting center for work on a deleted article. I think the advice that you received about posting a notice on the pub was ill considered and I'd prefer that this notice be removed from the pub.  If, you want to nominate the article for undeletion go for it, but I'd discuss the goals of the article in your sandbox.  Feel free to invite people to discuss the article on your user page, but posting the notice here is disrespectful to the community. -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 12:39, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * WTF? Your attitude is disrespectful to the community.  It's the Pub, you can say what you want, and people are free to heed it or ignore it.  Same applies to user pages. (WT-en) Jpatokal 22:35, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * I don't think my attitude conveys disrespect. The page was VFD'd, went through the process, and was deleted according to community policies.  The vote ratio was 4:3, which isn't an overwhelming consensus, but Bill felt that the vote coupled with the policy that vfd'd pages are "guilty until proven innocent" was enough reason to delete the page.  There is some disrespect in courting people in a community gathering spot to work on a deleted article that was deleted by the community.  Now, if in any way I was disrespectful to Denis I will apologize to him, but I was not disrespectful toward the community in stating that because Denis was displaying some disrespect toward the processes set up by the community so I will not apologize for my attitude on the subject. -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 23:19, 3 January 2007 (EST)

 * I'm not disputing the VFD process, but I do think telling people that they can't even discuss the subject Pub-licly is disrespectful. Denis should be able to continue work in his own space and tell people so on Talk pages, and if enough people join in to overturn the previous consensus, then the page can be recreated. (WT-en) Jpatokal 00:29, 4 January 2007 (EST)

 * Well, I've said my piece, as have you. I'll take your opinion into account, but I won't promise to convert.  Until then can we agree to disagree? -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 00:59, 4 January 2007 (EST)

 * I think there's probably some truth from both of you. It is pretty disrespectful of community decisions to continue to work on this article. However, sometimes disrespect is called for, and I honestly believe that Denis has the project's best interest at heart by persisting on this article. We probably shouldn't quash discussions that happen here in the pub or elsewhere. --(WT-en) Evan 23:25, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * Given that the vfd was somewhat contentious, I don't see a problem with Denis trying to work on something in a Sandbox to try to show, by example, that the subject matter could be useful as an article. He does after all only need to convince a few more of us, and an example is a great way of clarifying what the article could look like.  Once Denis thinks his example is sufficient, then he can nominate it for undeletion -- and point people at his example of what the article might look like.  In the meantime, it is reasonable for Denis to invite the community to participate. -- (WT-en) Colin 23:22, 21 December 2006 (EST)

 * That sounds like a good plan to me. --(WT-en) Evan 23:25, 21 December 2006 (EST)

OK, let's go back to this story. I found several mentions of Lonely Planet or other guidebooks in Wikivoyage. It would help me much if I understand which of these uses are considered acceptable by the wikivoyage community. Would anyone help? (feel free to ignore my grouping)

Thanks a lot. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 16:39, 4 February 2007 (EST)
 * 1) London: Start off with a printed guide (spend some time in a bookshops and have a free browse for some ideas, particularly Harden's London Restaurants, Time Out books such as the 'Eating & Drinking Guide' and 'Cheap Eats in London' as they are generally very reliable)
 * 2) Kenya: Lonely Planet's guidebook to Kenya is a good reference for places to stay.
 * 3) Gap year travel: Lonely Planet's The Gap Year Book - Is a guide book that offer advice to young travelers about to embark on an adventure before or after entering university.
 * 4) Pune: Lonely Planet India, Lonely Planet, Melbourne 2005. (Rs 950/20 USD)
 * 5) Senegal: there are several good books available on the subject including: Lonely Planet, Rough Guide, and Insight guides
 * 6) Papua New Guinea: The best, and currently only travel guide book to PNG is the Lonely Planet Papua New Guinea.
 * 7) Puerto Maldonado You can contact any operator and the most important tour guides like Lonely Planet, South American handbook recommend companies like (list of operator follows)
 * 8) London (your feet bullet): Get a good guidebook (Rough Guide, Lonely Planet...), sketch a map to stick in your pocket, have an early breakfast and be on your way.
 * 9) Pokhara: Lonely Planet Trekking in Nepal, it's hard to go past this one.
 * 10) Six months overland from Istanbul to Indonesia: For Bangladesh and to a lesser extent Iran and Pakistan I would recommend the Lonely Planet guides, for the other countries you should manage without. Just ask other tourists.

 * All except the one about "sketch a map to stick in your pocket" are not acceptable. In that context, it's more about "copy a map from " with lonely planet as just an example instead of pointing to it as a source of info. -- (WT-en) Colin 17:22, 4 February 2007 (EST)

 * Agreed. All of those are things that need to be fixed, not replicated. I mean, some of them are first person recommendations which is totally out of line with the MoS, some of them recommend old copies, and all of suggest that these guidebooks would somehow be more reliable/up-to-date than Wikivoyage. Thumbs down all around. (WT-en) Maj 22:54, 4 February 2007 (EST)

As a suggested point of clarification, I'd say that referring people to print guides isn't always inappropriate. A print guide containing information not within the Goals of Wikivoyage is different from a print guide that merely has a head start on collecting the same kind of information we're trying to provide here. For example, in the Isle Royale article, I suggested a book that describes each of the trails in detail, which is not something we want to do here. (The book also covers some of the same topics our article does, but that's not what I mentioned it for.) This is similar to how we link to Wikipedia and other online resources that have useful and related - but non-Goal - information. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 23:39, 9 February 2007 (EST)

Why?
Sorry, but I personally don't get it... why do we need to talk about other guides? Is there a note in the back of an LP that says "Check out Wikivoyage for any info not contained here"? Is there a note on a can of Coke suggesting to try Pepsi if you're not entirely satisfied with the flavor of Coke? People know what the alternatives are, they can find them in any bookstore. What's the point here? How is this actually useful in any way? If there's something missing from an article on WT then we should encourage people to "plunge forward" rather than "go elsewhere". This seems totally obvious to me, am I missing something? – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 16:48, 28 June 2008 (EDT)

 * I think that straightforward comparison with traditional guides that never recommend their competitors is not quite correct here.
 * When a user can't find enough info at Wikivoyage, he will end up with some other guidebook in most cases--not write it himself (as most of them are not adventurous enough to travel without any guidebook). However, when he come back from his trip, he will have some experience to share--and if we helped him to choose guidebook, we'll increase chances he will contribute his insights and tips to Wikivoyage--rather than send it to Lonely Planet, which attaches a feedback postcard to every guidebook it sells.
 * And I don't see how we can loose a reader due to this article: we're either better than LP in describing a given destination, or we're weaker--it has nothing to do with whether we help to discover alternative guidebooks.
 * I have an indirect analogy which is still relevant. Yandex, major search engine in Russia which leaves Google far behind in Russia (60% controlled by Yandex vs 25% by Google) provides links to search with other search engines at the bottom of every search page. For Yandex, it gives a perfect evidence of what search queries it's not really good in--and Yandex uses it to improve its search algorithms. Similarly, if we allow users to share their recommendations on competing travel guides, we'll find out where are strengths (and weaknesses) of them compared to Wikivoyage--initially on a global scale; later on a destination-by-destination basis. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 17:27, 28 June 2008 (EDT)

 * I see only 2 avenues that this article could take: a) an overview review of printed guidebooks b) develop it into a list by destination of who has the best coverage of each destination. If it sticks with A, which it essentially is now, there's not really much room for development... what else can you really say about them that's relevant to us and not grasping for straws? Or, developing it into option B, we'd be creating a huge unmaintainable list.

 * Your point about Yandex is interesting, but I'd bet that what you mention about improving search algorithms is their entire motive for offering that, since it benefits them; I don't see how an article with printed guidebook reviews benefits WT though. However, I don't see anything wrong with users commenting on article talk pages about which printed guidebook has the best coverage of that destination. That would seem to make the most sense to me, and the best place for that kind of info – (WT-en) cacahuate   talk 18:37, 28 June 2008 (EDT)

 * Avenue a: I think there's at least a dozen of international travel guide series, plus, I suppose, several series published locally in US / UK / Australia (not to mention non-English countries). That makes a half-A4 article--not bad, I think. What's next--map publishers?
 * Avenue b: I agree that our judgment on what guidebook will help best should belong to a destination, not to a single list standing aside. However, I would be more radical and suggest to put recommendations on an article page instead of Talk:Article: "This article is still stub|outline|usable. We don't like to be arrogant, the article is far too from our competitors--so consider guidebook A if you prefer X, and guidebook B if you focus on Y. When you return, come back to Wikivoyage to share your experiences". --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 18:04, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

 * Yikes, good luck getting that one through the community :) Hehe – (WT-en) cacahuate   talk 18:16, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

 * I can't say I understand your point. The community already voted that it don't like the page as it currently is, and no new supporters emerged since than. So, we're in status quo--don't we? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 18:29, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

 * Yes exactly, I was saying if they don't like even an article about them, good luck getting them mentioned in the actual guides. I was teasing you, I know you aren't seriously proposing that :) – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 11:49, 1 July 2008 (EDT)

 * What about avenue A?
 * In general, would you suggest how to move on with making the content we have a part of the official namespace? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 17:40, 1 July 2008 (EDT)

 * I think Avenue's A and B are both dead ends... my opinion is that we're aiming to be the most up to date and complete guidebook, and that any energy that we would spend recommending another guide should be spent improving ours – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 00:17, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

 * Realistically, I don't see people printing out lots of Wikivoyage pages and walking around with them. A book is far easier to handle. So I see nothing wrong with discussing other guides, and certainly don't see them as competitors. I'd like to target people who don't use either Wikivoyage or a book. You'd be amazed at the number of people who wander around Rome with just a cheap map from their hotel for company. (WT-en) Shep 16:25, 18 February 2010 (EST)

User talk:DenisYurkin/Travelling with a laptop notebook

There are issues around keeping a laptop's data secure/ Basically, the solution is to encrypt your files.

Having various sites blocked may also be an issue. China has the Great Firewall & various other countries have filters. The best way around these is to use a proxy outside the country; your computer talks to the proxy and the proxy connects to the blocked site, so that connection is not seen by the filters. One easy way to use a proxy is via a Firefox add-on; there are several designed for this. The main difficulty is that the censors block connections to the proxies. If you really need reliable uncensored connections, the best solution is to set up either a VPN back to your company at home or a private proxy server. There is good information on setting up your own proxy at Stupid Censorship.

Being monitored is another issue. Quite a few governments monitor Internet traffic, so you may be monitored by the country you are in, the one where the site you connect to is, or anyone in between. Much Internet traffic passes through the US and their NSA have huge monitoring capacity. Of course any connection to a proxy should be encrypted to prevent monitoring. Some web email services, such as Gmail, allow you to use https (secure http) to connect. If yours has this feature, use it (e.g. for Gmail click "always use https" on the settings page). If not, consider changing providers or just getting a Gmail account for travel.

Wikivoyage has a policy that individual attractions do not get articles. Please see Project:What is an article?. Based on this policy, I have nominated the Glow worm tunnel article to be merged with the article for Wollemi National Park. If you would like to comment, please do so on this page: Project:Votes for deletion. Anyway, thanks for your contributions, and my apologies for nominating the page you were working on for deletion.

Hi. You need to please read don't tout. On this website, no business is permitted to be listed in two different articles. Faralya is the most appropriate place for you to list your motel. If you continue trying to insert a listing in Lycian Way, too, both listings will be deleted, and it may eventually be necessary to block your account, because the editors here are all volunteers who don't want to waste time with users who ignore edit summaries, their user talk page, and site policies, and engage in edit wars.

However, I am not so certain about your changes to Mosquitoes. Please bear in mind that WikiTravel is a travel guide, not a scientific encyclopedia. So that your hard efforts do not go to waste, it may be helpful to have a look at Project:Goals and non-goals to understand the audience for WikiTravel.

Great work on Vientiane! (WT-en) Jpatokal 23:10, 6 September 2007 (EDT)

 * Really great work! Please take a look at Wikivoyage Press and let me know if you'd be interested in covering Laos.

 * Regarding hotel listings and such, could I ask you to try out the  tags? (I've added one as an example.)  These ensure that formatting is perfect. (WT-en) Jpatokal 07:54, 16 September 2007 (EDT)

Thanks! I take your proposal as a compliment, but cannot do it: I can do Vientiane because I am living here. My travels in Laos have not been so extensive that I could contribute more than just some basics about other destinations.

As for the tags, I'll keep that in mind. (WT-en) Dezwitser 09:46, 17 September 2007 (EDT)

 * Actually we might well be interested in Vientiane alone? Please drop me a line. (WT-en) Jpatokal 01:22, 18 September 2007 (EDT)

Vientiane in fr
Hi, I guess your comment in the pub was probably about the fr:Vientiane article. (If not - ignore this message!) I've tried to update a few sections already, and will do more as I get time. However, I know nothing about Vientiane and my French isn't perfect, so I'll probably get things wrong. Since you're the local expert (and a 2 or 3 in French if I understood correctly?), can you at least keep an eye on my changes or maybe even patch other sections up?

Also, for whatever it's worth, fr doesn't seem to have the notion of stub/outline/guide etc - either articles are bouchons or not.

Apartment Agencies in Paris 3rd
Thanks for your message. You should read the policy here. On that basis, Trip Europe definitely seems out as I cant find an office address on their website, let alone one that agrees with a physical address in Paris. I suspect it is an internet booking agency without an office, and therefore an invalid listing. This is the one I checked yesterday before deleting the edit. The Century21 listing is probably OK as they have a local address, providing that Paris 3rd qualifies as a "location where travellers frequently rent cabins or apartments"? We get a huge amount of apartment agency spam here and more often than not the listings are deleted. I think you are partially right though and that one of them is OK. Trip Europe has been deleted again. Cheers. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 06:21, 26 February 2010 (EST)

Hi Dhiraj-ji - Thanks for your recent contributions. At the moment, however, the Bangalore article is creaking with too much information, and it is in desperate need of splitting up. As I assume that you live there, I wonder whether you would have the time to help with this. The districts should be based on cultural and geographical connections, and there should not be more than 9. Take a look at Mumbai, as an example, and also you may find this article may be of help: Project:Geographical hierarchy and in particular the section titled Dividing geographical units. Anyway, it may be too much work for you, especially as you are new to Wikivoyage and so not yet used to the system. However, please give it some thought. Incidentally, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me or any or the other regular contributors. Thanks. Take it easy. (WT-en) WindHorse 07:18, 24 June 2007 (EDT)

User talk:(WT-en) Dhum Dhum/Main page

Hey, so, I like the way this looks. Some comments:

 * 1) I'm really unhappy with the way MediaWiki works with tables -- that is, not at all B-). I think anything with tables in it -- like the CIA Factbook imports -- is inherently hard to collaborate on. It separates people into HTML-haves and HTML-havenots.
 * 2) The columns on that upper table don't balance out very well. The middle one is much longer than the other two.

Just my 2 cents. -- (WT-en) Evan 09:28, 1 Nov 2003 (PST)

Actually, here's a third cent, which is: Main Page is traditionally elitist, and at some point -- after it gets vandalized a couple of times -- we're going to have to protect it, like Wikipedia does. So, maybe the first problem isn't so bad. -- (WT-en) Evan 09:30, 1 Nov 2003 (PST)

 * Thanks for the feedback, Evan.
 * I agree with you that HTML is not the best way to handle tables. It took me about two hours to create this page (and then I copy-pasted some stuff from other places). It's a fine line between the evil (HTML) and the nice look of tables. For me the balance tips to the latter. And, as you correctly assume, it shouldn't be too much of a problem for the main page in the future.
 * As for the columns, I haven't really spent much time getting the best fitting width. I'm planning on adding some more links to the 'Community' column. We should take care that a column doesn't get too narrow so it becomes unreadable. In that case the links in it probably don't deserve their own column anyway.
 * What do you think of the colours (I know I'm not very good at combining colours), the placement of the boxes, the content, or whatever you can think of? Feedback is really appreciated. (WT-en) D.D. 13:03, 1 Nov 2003 (PST)

 * Well, since you asked about colours, I have to say that I don't like them. A bit too bright?  Also, remember that people have a choice of different skins, you don't want things to clash too much.  The layout is o.k. though.  (WT-en) CL 00:11, 2 Nov 2003 (PST)

 * Well, as I said, I'm not very good at combining colours. Is this better? (WT-en) D.D. 05:19, 2 Nov 2003 (PST)

Kyoto Districts
I completely agree that if the Kyoto guide is to be of any use, it needs to be districted. The city actually isn't that large in size, but in attractions, it's HUGE! I had always thought that if someone tried to use it as a guide, it'd be quite troublesome. I hope it didn't mess up your trip too much! The Kyoto guide is organized much better than the Osaka page, though. That one needs a complete overhaul! I'll be leaving Japan soon, so next week I may be MIA, but I'll definitely try to work on the Kyoto conversion, if we do go through with this. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 11:33, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
 * Thanks for responding! And no worries; I consulted a variety of travel references so the trip went almost perfectly (and Wikivoyage was still a very big help).  You're right, the Kyoto guide is quite nicely organised; all that needs to be done is make it easier to digest by not feeding all that information to users on a single page.  Let's hope the districting project will be a great success.  --(WT-en) Diego de Manila 20:23, 23 May 2009 (EDT)

The image policy is very important, because we cannot use images without proper permission from the people who created them. For example Image:Et facilities.gif will have to be deleted from Wikivoyage, because it was taken from another web site and we do not have permission from the creator of that web site. Before you can upload a picture you didn't take yourself, you need to get permission from the person who did take it. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 12:04, 20 July 2006 (EDT)

Copyright problems
Several of the photos you've just uploaded appear to have problems with the copyright. I've already found some of the web sites where they came from, and they not give us permission to use them. These files cannot remain on Wikivoyage and will have to be deleted. Please don't upload images unless you took the pictures yourself, or you have specific permission from the person who did. I'm about ready to start assuming that all of the pictures you're uploading are copyright violations, in which case I'd vote to delete them all, to be safe. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 18:38, 20 July 2006 (EDT)

Hi. I appreciate your enthusiasm in putting an external links ("Geting out english online resources") in the Hangzhou guide, but I would also appreciate it if you would pay attention to editing Summaries, such as the one I posted when I deleted the section. Please, read it now:

Unfortunately, external links sections aren't allowed here. See Project:External links

If you would like to argue that Wikivoyage's external links policy is wrong, I would suggest that you read through Wikivoyage_talk:External_links and, if you still have an argument to make, make it there, where it can be discussed appropriately. But in the meantime, please do not engage in an editing war that you will not win, on the basis that you think you should be able to circumvent the external links policy that currently governs Wikivoyage articles, rather than addressing the policy head-on in the appropriate forum.

AudioTravel listings & audiotravel.com links
Hi

I moved the message you left about adding the AudioTravel link back in to the Cologne article to Talk:Cologne.

Unfortunately, the listing has since been re-deleted. Best place to discuss this further is probably Project:External links.

Thanks for your additions to the Dalton Highway! Any updated information you could provide about road conditions would be really appreciated as they seem to have changed considerably over the years. In 1994 much of the road was barely passable, while in 2002 I was shocked to find paved sections! I would suspect that things have probably further improved, so updates would be great. Thanks for the additions, and glad to have a fellow Alaska traveler on the site. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 21:40, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

Hello! Welcome to Wikivoyage. If you want to specialize your experience you may want to consider editing your preferences.

I have some concerns about the photos you're uploading because you haven't state who owns the copyright, which license it is available under, and you haven't provided a model release statement. Aside from that, we normally dislike and discourage using images with people in them because they generally are not useful to other travellers. I'd appreciate if you'd respond to the concerns and note that as state in the image policy that the images are likely to eventually be deleted. Thanks. -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 13:27, 29 August 2006 (EDT)

Welcome to Wikivoyage!
Hi Ken! As it is now apparenty you aren't a bot....

I thought I'd just drop by and welcome you to Wikivoyage. If you want to specialize your experience you may want to consider editing your preferences.

Hi Ken!

The reason I deleted your edit on South Africa is that it is against our external links policy. The reason I deleted just yours, and not the other link above it, is because when you made that edit I saw that you were adding something that wasn't allowed, and as I am admin I have a button that I can use to undo your edit. I apologise for deleting just yours and not the other link, I am quite busy and if I read all the pages I revert I would get far less done!

Unfortunately, it appears that we can't work with your site, so please do not add links onto wikivoyage to your site, as you will be wasting your time - they will be removed almost immediately. However, it would be great if you could personally contribute and help us reach our goals. -- (WT-en) Tim 08:46, 24 January 2007 (EST)

 * Thanks for pointing out the Timeshare link. That has been removed from our site as you will now see! There is absolutely no way that Wikivoyage can work with your site. It isn't a case of whether the site is good or not, but more a case of it being a completely different thing to what we are trying to achieve here. We are trying to make a good, free and impartial travel guide. We don't want to link to other directories because that is what Wikivoyage should be as part of being a travel guide. Our copyright licenses are also incompatible, so information cannot be shared between. If you notice, the only websites we link to in our articles are 1st party sites, Wikipedia, W66 (our sister site) and Dmoz. Nothing else will be linked to, and if it is, then it gets removed from our site. Sorry about this, but that is the letter of the law and we would be harming Wikivoyage if we stopped adhering to it and started linking to any old website. -- (WT-en) Tim 15:53, 24 January 2007 (EST)
