Thanks for all the great work on Corinth (Mississippi)!

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.

Hello & Welcome to Wikivoyage!

I took some of the great info you put in Salem (Oregon) and spread it around a bit (the "Get out" section listings should be kept short & sweet) - have a look:
 * Mount Angel
 * Sisters
 * Cascade Mountains (Oregon)
 * September
 * Project:Discover

Please feel free to expand those articles too!

Hello Anonymous User!

Thank you for contributing to Project:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense. However, that page is an archive of previously removed material. I find it intriguing that you are revising it. You obviously think it is fun, so consider writing something real and practical rather than wasting your time on nonsense. You obviously have talent; put it to good use. Read our welcome message. -- (WT-en) Huttite 20:12, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)

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.

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

If you are 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.

Let me repeat more succinctly what others have said: DON'T TOUT. Factual information on hotels (and other things) written in a way consistent with our Manual of Style is welcome; advertising is not. Toutish changes will be rolled back, and we can roll 'em back faster than you can write 'em. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 15:20, 14 September 2007 (EDT)

Please stop.
Okay, listen up. So far you've just been going from article to article, writing what are practically advertisements for Hyatt hotels and some golf resorts. Please stop. Wikivoyage is not an advertising brochure. Please read the Welcome, business owners page and the Don't tout page for advice on how to properly edit pages. :-) (WT-en) PerryPlanet 15:24, 14 September 2007 (EDT)

EDIT: Whoops, posted at the same time Bill did.

 * Just to add a bit more, the addition of hotels to articles is appreciated, but contributors here have a huge problem with Wikivoyage being used by businesses to tout. The fact that the hotels you have added are always added to the top of the hotel list, use language out of an ad agency such as "Welcome to a golfer's paradise in the Valley of the Sun", and do not always follow the Project:Accomodation listings format (for starters, leave the city, state and zip code out, and note how URLs should be formatted) has raised some hackles.  We WANT you to contribute, but not in a way that creates work for editors who must then go in and clean up your contributions. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 15:36, 14 September 2007 (EDT)

 * All that said, Hyatt hotels are usually a good addition to almost any article (no, I'm not touting -- they're a major chain of upscale hotels).

 * Please don't delete these additions just because you don't like the way they're added. Fixing, re-ordering the listings makes more sense. --(WT-en) Evan 16:56, 14 September 2007 (EDT)

Project:Activity listings and Project:External links are the relevant pages. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 18:46, 28 April 2009 (EDT)

Gorilla, Sorry, I didn't know here where I can get admin's message. Since wikivoyage welcome business owners and my friends' agency do offer those services I don't why I can't mention them? Also some iterms have no contact information and travelers can contact the agency for those services so I think it is okay to leave the agency's contact information. What do you think? Or tell me what to do about editing the page? Then I can put them back. Thanks.

What should I do if I want to put back the agency link without disobeying the rules? Thx!

 * Putting back the agency link is disobeying the rules. So it's not possible. Move on. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 00:38, 29 April 2009 (EDT)

Why? I read "wikivoyage welcome business owners" page again and I think it is fine. How to fix it? thx. I edited Guilin and Yangshuo sections according the rules of wikivoyage. And do give the right contact information of certain services which have no booking information. They are ALL CORRECT CONTACT INFORMATION NOT SPAM! I don't know why people detele my work and even block my friend's site link. As for the warn, I didn't get the message until this morning.

Please give me specific reasons not show me some links to some pages because I already wiki business pages many times these days.

Wikivoyage is a travel guide. We like to include all the necessary information in our own guide, rather than linking to other people's guides.

ABQ Ride
Hi there, I just wanted to clarify why I reverted your addition of the #36 route to the Albuquerque page - while I am a huge proponent of mass transit and normally don't mind recommending ABQ Ride, the #36 only runs once an hour on weekdays, doesn't run at all on Sundays, doesn't run very long operating hours, and makes a bizarre loop, going north on 12th Street and south on Rio Grande. For these reasons, I highly recommend that we refrain from mentioning it, giving it's almost complete uselessness to visitors. I'd really rather recommend Rapid Ride, which we already mention in the bus section. :) (WT-en) PerryPlanet Talk 00:08, 21 April 2010 (EDT)

Don't delete competitors' listings
It would appear from your pattern of edits that you are associated with Jetset Charter. That's fine, as long as you respect the guidelines laid out in Project:Welcome, business owners. One cardinal rule is, _never_ remove a competitor's listing. If you believe there's a really good reason for a competitor's listings to be deleted, post your argument to that effect in the talk (discussion) page for the relevant article and let others, who are presumably not financially motivated, make the decision. Please be a good citizen here and don't cause administrators to consider blacklisting Jetset Charter's URL site-wide or taking other punitive actions. Thanks a lot.

Please take a closer look at the Chicago article before you edit it — there's no need to repeat the fact that the CTA serves the airports twice within two paragraphs, and you're adding references to articles that don't exist. Also, track closures and slow zones continue to be an issue on the Blue Line, so it doesn't make sense to delete those references. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 18:40, 19 May 2009 (EDT)

Afro-American history edits
Hi, I wanted to explain my reversion on your talk page, as there were too many points to address. "Broader" means broader than the "South Side" as defined in the districts section (large would be irrelevant in this context); the "area" is commonly referred to as a neighborhood, despite the fact that there are understood neighborhoods (UChicago defined community areas, really), under the confusing name "South Side" by people who live here; there are plenty of South Siders who are just as ignorant of these areas as anyone in Avondale—even in Hyde Park.

Also, I'm not sure if you have noticed the edit history for the article—all the further edits that have been made to your own changes have included edit summaries explaining exactly why the reversions have taken place. These summaries might help you to contribute with less friction.

Please take a good look at Project:Tone, which sets out very clearly that we want lively writing. Pedestrians "constantly crossing streets" is both mundane and obvious; "in a daze" is lively writing (and not mine, by the way). Project:Welcome, newcomers is also a good place to get more familiar with Wikivoyage's basic practices and policies.

Lastly, please consider registering for an account, as this would make communication more easy. I hope all this isn't too frustrating, and I know it can be tough to see your edits "ruthlessly" edited by others. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 18:59, 20 May 2009 (EDT)

Taxis in Chicago
It's absolutely not true that visitors can expect to hail a taxi from the street in every part of Chicago. I guarantee you could not hail a taxi off the street anywhere on the northwest side, not to mention much of the south side. I've tried! (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 19:44, 20 May 2009 (EDT)

 * I suspect you're not reading this. But instead of simply deleting facts and dulling down lively writing, perhaps you could focus on adding things to the Chicago guides — bars, restaurants, or other places that you enjoy that aren't currently covered. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 21:14, 21 May 2009 (EDT)

 * Seriously, it is criminally false to keep inserting claims that you can hail a taxi on the street from anywhere in Chicago. It isn't true and you're posing a danger to travelers by repeatedly inserting it. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 18:17, 3 July 2009 (EDT)

 * There are plenty of places covered in our guide where you often can't even call a taxi. Just last July 4th, I had been awake for about 40 hrs, was coming home on the Metra to Hyde Park, dozed off, and wound up at 115th St, with no trains coming for 4 hrs. A nice couple took me in and tried to call a cab, but the rote response was, "nah, sorry, you're too far."  --(WT-en) Peter Talk 21:28, 3 July 2009 (EDT)

More on tone
I'm not sure if you are reading this talk page, but I thought it might be worth revisiting the topic of tone. The bulk of your editing has involved qualifying statements, and removing more informal language. This is not desirable. This can be a difficult policy to internalize if you're not used to this type of writing (it has been for me). But charging ahead with this sort of watering down is likely to just be reverted, so it might be productive to channel your efforts in a different direction—try adding new travel content for parts of the world that you're familiar with. Others will edit that too, no doubt, but it's far more likely to be a productive use of your time and more beneficial to Wikivoyage. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 21:40, 21 May 2009 (EDT)

 * after the links, i went back and read the guidelines.

 * is it ok if i link the same way you did from "collier county" page from everglades, marco and naples?

 * I'm not sure what you mean? ~ 203.144.143.4 14:48, 9 January 2008 (EST)

the plan is to go back and beef up the collier county pages later...but for now...

You modified the way the Collier County page linked to paradisecoast.com, using an "[1]"

Being that the ParadiseCoast site is the official site of Collier, including Naples, Everglades, and Marco Island, would it be fine if I go into those individual pages and link to ParadiseCoast.com in the similar fashion, using the "[1]" etc.?

Hopefully that makes sense.

 * See External links. I think if www.paradisecoast.com is the official website for Collier County then it should be linked to from the top of that page. I don't think it should be linked to from any other page. If you think otherwise, try asking the question here: Project:External links ~ 203.144.143.4 14:56, 9 January 2008 (EST)

 * Never mind - I've gone ahead and asked the question myself - see Project:External links ~ 203.144.143.4 15:10, 9 January 2008 (EST)

Don't Tout
You seem to be adding Mariott hotel listings to numerous articles. The text of these listings seems to be lifted directly from promotional material for those hotels. This is not acceptable, according to our Project:Don't tout policy, not to mention our copyright policy. Please do not add listings unless you follow these rules. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me for advice. Thanks. (WT-en) LtPowers 15:16, 23 December 2008 (EST)

Welcome to Wikivoyage. I assume you are working for a hotel holding company. I have two requests: first, please check out Project:Accommodation listings for how to properly format a hotel entry. In particular, the entries will be more useful to your customers if they include phone numbers -- wikivoyage is not just an online guide, and some people will be using Wikivoyage without access to the Internet.

Second, you switched a Sacramento Holiday Inn over to your own website. Normally that would be fine but I tried the website and not only are the images not displaying, but the reservations link did not work either. I think you ought to make your websites work first before switching us over to them so that you don't make a poor impression on your customers.

Lastly, please consider making a user account. There are a number of advantages to you of doing this (it makes communication with you easier, for example), and you can provide as little or much information about yourself as you choose.

Cheers -- (WT-en) Colin 14:43, 14 September 2006 (EDT)

Don't tout
Please read the Don't tout guidelines. The following will also be of interest:-

 * Project:Copyleft - never copy and paste work from other websites - this includes hotel descriptions from the website of the hotel, hotel review websites, travel forums, etc - Wikivoyage cannot accept any of this content.

 * Project:Tone - NEVER use promotional waffle such as Just a short stroll from Oklahoma City’s vibrant Bricktown entertainment district; the Courtyard by Marriott Oklahoma City Downtown offers unrivaled access to great dining; shopping and nightlife. - this is completely useless and is exactly what Wikivoyage DOES NOT WANT. Leave the description completely blank unless you've actually stayed there and have some useful information to contribute.

 * Project:Accommodation listings - NEVER repeat the hotel name - only include it ONCE, right at the beginning.

 * Project:Tips for new contributors

 * Project:Manual of style

 * Project:How to

 * Project:Help

Thanks. ~ 203.144.143.4 02:28, 17 January 2008 (EST)

 * I just reverted another of your edits . Please don't tout, please don't put listings in obviously the appropriate articles, please don't repeat the hotel name,  please don't include the name of the article in the address. Always put the entire listing on one line, and please use the "sleep" tag. Thanks. ~ 203.144.143.4 02:11, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Just in case someone else adds an edit, I'll say it here: The dog warning is not at all a statewide problem in Pennsylvania, so if it is a problem in your city OR if it is a problem in your region, I recommend adding the warning to those pages rather than broadening it to the entire state OR if you want to place it on the Pennsylvania page, please SPECIFY the area in which dogs are dangerous. They are definitely not a problem anywhere in Western Pennsylvania, and I don't believe they are an issue in Philadelphia, either. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 19:19, 8 September 2009 (EDT)

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.

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.

I checked out your website, and since your business looks legitimately useful to travelers, I've added a listing for your rental agency to the Pensacola Beach article (note that Pensacola Beach and Pensacola are separate articles.) If you want to re-add your listings for the other cities, you should try it!

Originally University of Colorado at Denver (previous listing), updated upon merger with the Aurora Health Sciences Center campus to The University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center, and again to University of Colorado Denver in April 2008.

Hello, 67.68.162.36! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

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

By the way, have you considered creating an account here? While you can absolutely keep contributing as an anonymous user, it promises a bunch of benefits, and no obligations.

Please do take a look at the guidelines on what is an article - festivals never get their own pages, but are listed under the Do headings of the appropriate city. Because of different licensing, we also can't copy text directly from Wikipedia, as you did with your two new articles. However, the new entry in Quebec City is certainly appreciated. Thanks. - (WT-en) Dguillaime 21:49, 13 May 2009 (EDT)

Wikivoyage has fairly strict guidelines for additions by hotel marketers, so please have a look at them. In particular, a contribution such as is inappropriate as it reads like an advertisement and the description provides no useful information about the hotel.

Welcome
Hi, and welcome to Wikivoyage!

I edited your post in the Menomonie travel guide to eliminate 1st-person pronouns, which is a matter of style here (see Project:Don't tout and Project:First person pronouns). Your listing was straightforward otherwise, however - except for one thing. Saying that the price is "same as last years" is not useful to anyone who isn't a repeat customer, so you do need to list actual numbers for your prices. Listing prices and rates is in fact a requirement at Wikivoyage, so it's possible your listing could be deleted if you do not edit it accordingly, though I would imagine you would be given at least a bit of time to make the edit.

In any case, thanks for your contribution, and I hope you stick around and share more of your local knowledge with the potential visitors reading these pages.

Please feel free to visit the Travellers' Pub if you'd like to ask any questions.

All the best,

Little Italy
The main Manhattan page includes Little Italy as part of its Chinatown district. Sometimes districts on wikivoyage will not match people's familiar concept of them 100% due to the necessity of simplifying information in order to systematically categorize it. If something seems out of place try to see why it was placed there first, and if its placement is an error, please move it to the appropriate spot instead of removing it outright. (WT-en) Jtesla16 08:36, 27 September 2008 (EDT)

You're probably right in this instance. But if Little Italy is included in the article, the introduction should be changed (maybe I'll work on that), and we need to consider what boundaries we're going to use - should NoLiTa also be included, for example? Michael 11:40, 2 October 2008 (EDT)

Has anyone ever been scammed by an apartment rental agency? I was in Buenos Aires in January and rented an apartment in Palermo through Buenos Aires Stay (www.buenosairesstay.com or www.bastay.com.) The landlord of an apartment they managed stole my deposit and claimed that I damaged the apartment. I absolutely did not. They did nothing to help me out and in fact, supported the false accusations made by the landlord. I can't believe this stuff happens! Beware.

Thanks. I'd say the province is more famous. I haven't created a user account because I haven't needed to. Are there any great advantages to one? Michael 11:46, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
 * One. Instead of typing "Michael 11:46, 24 June 2006 (UTC)" every single time you leave comments all you have to do is type ~
 * I don't know if that's an overwhelmingly convincing reason to sign up, but there are some other benefits:

 * Specialize search preferences, which might make your life easier when searching for something.
 * Helps people track who they are talking to and/or making changes
 * You actually get your username/real name on the bottom of the page as credit for working on the article. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 07:57, 24 June 2006 (EDT)

What are the specialized search preferences? Michael 12:02, 24 June (UTC)
 * Lets say you are looking for Project:What is an article? and you try searching for it and you type "What is an article?" nothing will pop up on the search results page, because you didn't click "Search in namespace - Wikivoyage." However, if you have a user account the software will remember your preferences and will always look in in the "Wikivoyage" namespace for anything else you search for in the future. Did that make sense (I'm not great at giving directions)? - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 08:05, 24 June 2006 (EDT)

Well, I'm not sure how I found that article before, and I do see that I get no results using searching for "What is an article?". I'll think about it. Thanks. Michael 14:31, 24 June (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a look at Project: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.

I added Philadelphia and removed Charlotte from the Eastern US gateways. Philadelphia currently has 19 destinations in Europe with direct service versus two for Charlotte. Thus, I think the list is better balanced by including Philadelphia and removing Charlotte.

Recently visited Karlovy Vary. As ever with the Czech Republic, old onspoilt architecture to die for, and for those with pictures in mind, take lots of film, as recent film makers have! Lots of extreemly good independent shops aimed at the medium/higher market as well some more affordable options. Stayed at the Grand Pupp. Whilst mine was corporate hostpitality, fantastic place both to look at, and stay in, e.g. at early breakfast, far more staff than patrons, (the hotel was full),all were very polite and attentive which seemed the norm. Unfortunately there are odd ugly parts which are a BLOT ON THE LANDSCAPE. I vote hotel THERMAL top of the list, bless its com'crete'ist heart.Generally K.V. is flat, built in a valley, but move to the edges and the upwards is extreemly steep. I'm going back.

Hello! Thanks for your contributions to Cape May and Wildwood (New Jersey), but please take a look at Project:External links and Project:Don't tout. Vacation rental services fall into a gray area of our external links policy and are normally removed as non-primary listings, although some articles do have them. However, adding three (!) copies of the same text linking to your company on Cape May definitely runs afoul of the "don't tout" policy. We appreciate that you want to link to your business, and that vacation rental sites are helpful for travelers, but please also help us by keeping in mind that our goal is not to become a link farm. We'd love to see more contributions from you, and you may want to consider creating a login to make communication easier. -- (WT-en) Ryan 21:59, 1 August 2006 (EDT)

Hello, and welcome to Wikivoyage. From your edits, it looks like you know something about San Marcos (Guatemala) and Guatemala in general. I hope you will contribute information that will help travellers discover these wonderful places. However, I notice that someone at your IP address deleted listings for other hotels in the Lake Atitlán and Guatemala City articles, while adding a listing for a San Marcos hotel. It almost looks like someone is trying to promote one business by hiding information about competitors. That sort of behaviour doesn't help travellers, so it doesn't belong on WikiTravel. I have undone those changes. Please help Wikivoyage, but please do so in a constructive way. A great place to start is by reading Project:Welcome, newcomers.

Our typical policy for listings of questionable value, such as taxi services, limo services, car rental agencies, fast food restaurants, etc, is that we'll leave them be if there are only one or two, but if it starts getting spammy then they are removed. Niagara Falls (Ontario) is clearly getting spammy, and since these types of listings are of limited value in a travel guide I've removed the section. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 18:14, 13 May 2010 (EDT)

You seem to misunderstand the nature of Wikivoyage. We welcome opinions, particularly opinions about ways to "stay safe" in an unfamiliar city. Warning someone to avoid a particular part of town is very different from writing a negative review of a restaurant, because people's safety is possibly at stake. If you feel this policy is inappropriate, bring it up in the Project:Travellers' pub. And if you disagree with someone's opinions in an article, either bring it up on that article's Talk page, or modify the text so it reflects your view of the subject as well. But please don't put comments like "cite needed" in articles; that's not how this wiki works. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 16:33, 31 March 2007 (EDT)
