Hello Jonboy!

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

Thank you for contributing to Silver Spring, Istanbul, San Diego, a project page and generally keeping the wiki tidy. --(WT-en) Huttite 19:23, 30 Dec 2005 (EST)

 * And a hearty welcome from me too — housekeeping after silly vandals is a chore and I for one very much appreciate you chipping in. (WT-en) Jpatokal 12:34, 15 Feb 2006 (EST)

Thanks for telling me about WikiTravel, I've already added an item to Maui. --(WT-en) Wwc 13:11, 8 March 2006 (EST)

Way to go
Man, you're doing a lot of work! Thanks a lot for your effort. --(WT-en) Evan 17:16, 15 Feb 2006 (EST)

Math is hard
Actually, that's 7000 articles larger than a certain size. I'm not sure how to tell how many too-small pages exist.

Keep up the great work! -- (WT-en) Colin 02:31, 17 Feb 2006 (EST)

 * Math is easy; reading is hard. Had not read the description of how the stats were calculated.  It was a secondary point to my battle against External Links sections, so has been removed.  Thanks for pointing it out!  (WT-en) Jonboy 12:31, 17 Feb 2006 (EST)

 * "Math is hard, let's go shopping" -- (WT-en) Colin 18:44, 22 Feb 2006 (EST)

 * I'm familiar, but as a mathematician, I have to disagree. :-)  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 20:04, 22 Feb 2006 (EST)

Nice work
Keep up the super-great work! And I appreciate that you keep your eye out for the "tourist != traveller" -- I think that's an important aspect of what makes Wikivoyage different from other guides. There's room for everywhere here! (WT-en) Majnoona 10:35, 20 Feb 2006 (EST)
 * Thanks! I end up plenty of places visiting family or on business that I wouldn't consider dream vacation spots, but I appreciate any travel info there. (WT-en) Jonboy 10:38, 20 Feb 2006 (EST)
 * Same here... And thanks for doing some welcomes too! It's always nice to get those up quick... (WT-en) Majnoona 13:05, 21 Feb 2006 (EST)
 * Tip o' the day: check out Project:Using_Mediawiki_templates for a quick way to add outlines... (WT-en) Majnoona 16:21, 21 Feb 2006 (EST)
 * Thanks; I used it in Cairo/Heliopolis! (WT-en) Jonboy 17:51, 21 Feb 2006 (EST)

External links Alkmaar
Please don't delete this collection of links, which is not spam, but relevant background information. If you want the external link section out, then move the links into appropriate sections of the article, instead of just deleting them. (WT-en) Wesopa 06:09, 26 February 2006 (EST)

I moved them all myself, but the above request stands, for other articles. (WT-en) Wesopa 07:21, 26 February 2006 (EST)
 * Please take a look at What not to link to. In particular, the sentence "We should have travel information in Wikivoyage, not linked to from Wikivoyage."  While I recognize in some cases I have been overly zealous in getting rid of external links, in 90% of the cases these links fall into the category of linked-to information.  In about 10% of the cases, they belong somewhere else in the article (eg attraction listing).  In those cases, i) I will try to move things within the article instead of deleting them but ii) feel free to put them back.   (WT-en) Jonboy 09:26, 26 February 2006 (EST)

Ischia in Main Page
I have check and I think that Ischia page is a good article for stay in main page, ther is info about all.

Nomination
Check out Project:Administrator nominations -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 15:04, 9 March 2006 (EST)

Thanks for the welcome
Thanks for welcoming me! I've already taken care of the reading so I know how things work around here. And by the way, congrats on being nominated for adminship! (WT-en) Jeff02 00:06, 14 March 2006 (EST)

Links for Vienna & Bratislava
Hi Jonboy, I see you've removed my links to Wikipedia from the articles about Vienna and Bratislava. Is it because they don't link to a primary source? If I link directly to archaeological park's website, would it be OK? (WT-en) VladoD 05:55, 19 April 2006 (EDT)
 * Yes, exactly! We're looking for links to the sites themselves, not to Wikipedia (other than the standard Wikipedia link per article).  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 09:12, 19 April 2006 (EDT)
 * OK, I've got one more question about licensing. I would like to create a new Wikivoyage article about this archaeological park. However, I would like to use large parts of the article at Wikipedia. I know it is not possible in general, but the article at Wikipedia is my own work. Is it in this case possible to use the material from Wikipedia? (WT-en) VladoD 11:18, 19 April 2006 (EDT)
 * Yes! As the author, you can decide to "dual-license" your content.  Just be careful to use your content, and not a later version that somebody else has added to.  Also, please take a look at Project:What is an article? to see if the park qualifies, in particular the "can you sleep there?" test.  If it doesn't, your contributions would still be welcome at the page belonging to the city nearest the park (the one visitors would stay at.) -- (WT-en) Jonboy 11:24, 19 April 2006 (EDT)
 * Thanks for your help :-) (WT-en) VladoD 11:46, 19 April 2006 (EDT)

Deletion
Man, you're burning up that "delete" tab! Thanks for taking care of the cruft in VFD. --(WT-en) Evan 15:49, 26 April 2006 (EDT)

PachaqPuriq
My, you were quick, I was just editing a welcome message for User:(WT-en) PachaqPuriq when you got in there first! -- (WT-en) DanielC 17:16, 28 April 2006 (EDT)

List length
Um, unless I'm missing something, it isn't exactly Wikivoyage "policy" that lists not exceed 9 items; it's merely one of those style things, as well as good practice just because of the human tendency to get confused if dealing with lots of things at once. However, if you check the manual of style, I think you'll find that it contains lists a lot longer than that, as do many of the other project pages. Sometimes long lists just can't be avoided without giving something inappropriately short shrift. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 12:04, 30 April 2006 (EDT)

 * My reason for being picky about referring to a "policy" of longer lists is that newcomers have a tendency to view pronouncements like this as oracular, particularly when they're coming from an admin or other highly active contributor.  I think the actual "policy" is: get the information on there somewhere, and then edits will gradually get it into the appropriate configuration.  In the case of cities, that's probably best done via setting up some (sub)regions, so that one big glob of real estate with 20 cities can become 3 regions with 5 or 6, plus the "major" city or two in that big glob.  Once that's done, purging the original list becomes reasonable. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 08:55, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

Reverts for Adventure Smith Explorations
Hi Jonboy - you reverted all of the edits of Special:Contributions/71.128.152.3, apparently someone who works for Adventure Smith Explorations, and gave no reason for it. Aside from bad formatting I didn't see anything wrong with them - they were probably done for advertising, but it still seems like good info and doesn't violate any policy that I'm aware of. Can you either un-revert those changes or include a message on the talk pages as to why they were done? Thanks! -- (WT-en) Ryan 12:03, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

 * Good call. I saw essentially the same text going into a bunch of articles and alarm bells went off in my head.  I should have looked at the web site first.  (I don't think we want everyone who offers a tour to a particular country to stick info in, but specialist tour guides like this make sense.)  I think I've reverted all of my edits (except one where they de-MoS'ed an existing link). -- (WT-en) Jonboy 12:16, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

 * No problem - even reverting their changes might have been OK, but without any explanation it confused me and I'm sure would confuse the editor who was adding that information. My fear is that simply reverting a change without explanation causes an otherwise well-intentioned user not to contribute in the future, and the edits made by this company do seem to have added useful information for travelers to each of the destinations edited. -- (WT-en) Ryan 12:22, 2 May 2006 (EDT)
 * Yeah, it's tricky. The rollback button takes a couple of seconds.  I just saw someone add their tour company info 3 times to Bhutan...all in the wrong place.  It took me 5-10 minutes to fix it correctly.  I'm not sure the trade-off is between not explaining a revert of information that might be helpful and getting sucked into a good bit of research and editing to incorporate that info properly. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 13:04, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

Thanks
... for noting that vandalism on my user page. That was a grave insult. I'd appreciate it if you can warn/block that user. Doesn't seem like such a user will be of great use. (WT-en) Daniel575 2 May 2006
 * Wikivoyage prides itself on not blocking users or IP addresses. I am quite surprised myself, but it seems to work.  In particular, that IP address hasn't made any changes since then.  I'll add your user page to my watch list just in case, but we seem to do a good job of spotting vandals.  (Any edit to a user page that isn't by that user draws my suspicion.)  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 16:56, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

Thank so much for taking the trouble guiding me at wikivoyage. As I am the owner of travel touch which is a Proper Web and cellular Destination guide I can contribute more then 12,000 attractions. Sleep. Eat, taxies and embassies' and more. I am giving you full permission to use Travel touch database only for credit. If you do not like my contribution- fine. If you need legal send me email. I do it for my own soul and not for any money Sam Yaniv —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Samyaniv (talk • contribs)

 * At the bottom of each page you can see "Based on work by...", which is our mechanism for giving credit. You can use your user page to point people back to your web site.  If you want to link to your web site directly from the text of articles, unfortuantely, that is against wikivoyage policies.  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 16:26, 27 August 2006 (EDT)

 * Thank you, I didn't find anything like this in wikivoyage policies. can you point me to? should i contact the mangment? please advice —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Samyaniv (talk • contribs)

 * Take a look at Project:External_links to see our policy against linking to non-primary sources in the text of the article. If you'd like to discuss these sorts of things with a more general audience (including other admins and Wikivoyage's founders), I suggest Project:Travellers%27 pub. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 18:14, 27 August 2006 (EDT)

cairo page
hi why did u deleted the links i have added to cairo page its a nice site i use it myself it has many things ,thanks and best regards —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Tak2 (talk • contribs) 11:33, 27 May 2006 (EDT)
 * I appreciate your contributions to Cairo, but please take a look at Project:External_links for our external links policy. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 15:34, 3 June 2006 (EDT)

Why?
Why should Bus travel in Israel be forbidden, if Rail travel in North America, Rail travel in Europe and Discount airlines in Europe are allowed???? I am going nuts here. If my article is deleted -- an article which has cost me hours of work -- while these other articles ARE permitted, this is simply antisemitic discrimination. Why is my article about Israel forbidden, while these other articles are allowed??? (WT-en) Daniel575 30 May 2006

 * If you take a look at those articles you'll noticed that they don't actually list every rail line in North America or every flighpath in Europe. It's the content, not the place. And if you take a look at the Project:Deletion log you'll see that we delete a lot of stuff-- including, recently New South Wales by rail, Eurail pass, Maine outlet shopping, and several dozen other travel topics. Really, it's not just you! (heck, two of my travel topics were deleted too !) (WT-en) Majnoona 00:20, 30 May 2006 (EDT)

 * For the record, I had nothing to do with the vfd. I don't have much to add, since I'm ambivalent about the whole way we treat travel topics.  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 21:27, 3 June 2006 (EDT)

Unsigned
I love it. This was a good idea, and I've been using it all over the place. Thanks! --(WT-en) Evan 17:54, 6 July 2006 (EDT)

Discount airlines in Europe
Hi - I restored the Discount airlines in Europe link to Europe as it seemed useful and relevant to me and I didn't see an obvious reason for the revert. If I've missed something then please revert my change. -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:05, 3 August 2006 (EDT)
 * My reasoning was that we have a way to include "relevant and useful" links -- the template.  I don't see a reason to include it both places.  Thoughts? -- (WT-en) Jonboy 14:20, 3 August 2006 (EDT)

 * My bad, didn't see it over there. It would be nice if we had some way of making the "related", Wikipedia, Dmoz and other links more prominent... -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:22, 3 August 2006 (EDT)

Platres
Is it the content or the format of the external links in this articles that was a problem? (i have had a look at []). You never left a reason... (WT-en) StephP 17:12, 8 October 2006 (EDT)
 * It was the location. Looks great now!  Thanks for contributing! -- (WT-en) Jonboy 12:09, 9 October 2006 (EDT)

Surreptitious rollback
Actually, 61.91.191.9's edit was quite correct -- there are two tis in there. (WT-en) Jpatokal 12:22, 11 October 2006 (EDT)
 * My bad -- I was fooled by the fact that Google did not immediately suggest a correction when I Googled it. Thanks for catching that.  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 13:40, 11 October 2006 (EDT)

Bonn
When you were in Cologne by any chance were you able to venture down into Bonn and snap any photos? -- (WT-en) Andrew H. (Sapphire) 20:30, 2 December 2006 (EST)
 * Sadly, no. It was a really quick trip. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 05:11, 9 December 2006 (EST)

Little havana
We apparently noticed this article at the same time and took different actions to deal with it. I suggest that it not be merged into Miami but rather used as impetus to get the city broken into districts, which is long overdue. Miami qualifies as a "Huge city" under our criteria and really needs a district structure. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 09:15, 14 December 2006 (EST)
 * Your solution seems better. I was looking for a quick way of highlighting this misplaced article, since I didn't have time to deal with it in detail. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 09:17, 14 December 2006 (EST)

Link deletion in-west-indies.com
Hello. You have deleted the link to in-west-indies.com. I agree you do not accept links to booking engines but - i did not link to such a page - i linked to a page giving lots of information about Martinique - the site has plenty of categories and information to offer to visitors - i did not break the rule of the linking policy, did i ? - in-west-indies.com is an informational website aboout french and english Carribbean culture.. Could you give me more explanation about your decision ? —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) 82.234.187.145 (talk • contribs) 21 Dec 2006
 * Take a look at Project:External_links. Basically, we don't link to third party informational web sites, either.  (With certain, well defined exceptions.)  -- (WT-en) Jonboy 14:00, 21 December 2006 (EST)

Patrolling edits
Do you know if there's a way to patrol several edits in a row? I usually open a new browser tab for each diff and check them one by one, but I guess that mustn't be easiest way. Thanks, (WT-en) Ricardo (Rmx) 22:35, 25 December 2006 (EST)
 * Make sure you have "enhanced recent changes" in your preferences, then you can click on the word "changes" to patrol them all at once. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 22:42, 25 December 2006 (EST)

Talk:Prince George's County
How soon we forget. The consensus was to keep. -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 07:42, 28 December 2006 (EST)
 * I thought that vote only applied to whether or not to delete it. If I've violated policy, I'll put it back.  Also, the discussion on the vfd was one "I don't object to deleting or redirecting this" (you), one keep & redirect (me) and one "Keep, at least for now".  I'll start a discussion on Talk:Maryland to see if we want to re-vamp the Maryland hierarchy to include counties.  --  (WT-en) Jonboy 12:07, 28 December 2006 (EST)

Gaithersburg Eat
I have compiled a comprehensive list of places to eat in (WT-en) Gaithersburg and it includes Kentlands. Please pick a few or all to add to Gaithersburg and I will delete the list when you are done. You are more familiar with the area, so I would prefer you make the selection. Also, I am not sure how you want to address Kentlands in the Gaithersbug article, so if you can help with that it would be appreciated. Let me know if you need me to do anything else to help. Thanks, -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 06:59, 30 December 2006 (EST)
 * I'll talk to my wife (who has friends there) and to her friends and figure it out. Thanks. -- (WT-en) Jonboy 11:28, 30 December 2006 (EST)
 * Well, I thought you could help with it... I didn't mean to dump in on you, but I figured you would want to be involved. So, I will finish it up if you have other priorities. It is really my fault for jumping on Kentlands. Thanks for you help and all you do for Wikivoyage! -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 12:12, 30 December 2006 (EST)
 * No, really -- no problem! I just thought it better to ask people who travel in that area more than I do.  After a brief conversation with my wife, she recommended a place in Germantown, which needs both an article and a disambig, so I deferred it until when I have a little more free time (probably one of the next three days). -- (WT-en) Jonboy 17:39, 30 December 2006 (EST)

I've nominated User:(WT-en) Cacahuate to become an admin; please comment on Project:administrator nominations when you have some time. --(WT-en) Evan 01:27, 6 January 2007 (EST)

Hullo J/b...I have nominated myself as Docent for Adelaide, and the code for my offer seems to be there in "Edit" view ... but not in Normal View ! Any clues ?? (WT-en) Textbot 17:31, 11 January 2007 (EST)

(WT-en) Textbot 12:00, 19 January 2007 (EST) Thanks JB for your effort. I see I am listed as a contributor, but "Docent" status flag must look different to what I imagined it would ! Can you point me to one of your own docents, so I can compare to what I see for [Adelaide] ? Thanks !

Minnesota: Cities
Is the number of cities for a given state limited to nine? I was surprised to see your edit in Minnesota. (WT-en) Spottacus 15:57, 15 January 2007 (EST)
 * Nine cities isn't a hard and fast rule, but it's the default upper limit. See Wikivoyage_talk:Region_article_template for an recent attempt to hash it out.  As (WT-en)  someone said there, "7±2 is a rule of thumb that should be balanced against other criteria, not an iron edict to be obeyed above all others."  If we don't enforce it, though, people will start adding their favorite cities and pretty soon the list will be 11, 12, 23... -- (WT-en) Jonboy 16:04, 15 January 2007 (EST)

Dear Jonboy, I left a question re removing extlink from Budapest. Could you reply there on the talk page? Thanks. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 01:36, 31 January 2007 (EST)

Poop
Sorry about that. I'd already opened the "edit" page, then you deleted the article, and then when I submitted my edit it re-created the article without warning. ~ 61.91.191.8 21:57, 1 February 2007 (EST)

 * Any reason for that particular redirect? -- (WT-en) Jonboy 22:01, 1 February 2007 (EST)

 * Only really to prevent the same page being created again. ~ 61.91.191.8 22:09, 1 February 2007 (EST)
 * Sorry, you probably mean why did I redirect it to where I did - follow the Wikipedia link on the redirect page ("Bird Poop Island") ~ 61.91.191.8 22:12, 1 February 2007 (EST)

An image for Blue Mounds State Park
I'd really like to use this image: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BlueMoundsStatePark.jpg that I found at Wikipedia. How do I go about appropriating it for the article I'm beginning on Blue Mounds State Park? (WT-en) Spottacus 17:54, 23 March 2007 (EDT)

Diplomacy
I certainly agree that your recent contribution to USA is a lot less inflammatory (and remains truthful). The question is, do we necessarily need neutered language throughout articles?

I would suggest that some of the defining characteristics of the USA (as opposed to near neighbours such as Canada, say) might be considered a little provocative:

 * Great inequalities of wealth
 * A huge crime and punishment infrastructure
 * Myopic media

Do we really want Wikivoyage to be so anodyne and neutered?

It'll end up like Wikipedia...(WT-en) Gaimhreadhan (kiwiexile at DMOZ) • 12:24, 28 March 2007 (EDT)

Why have you deleted my links
Two hotels were added to the "sleep" section of Torquay UK page and you deleted them with the comment "this site does not exist to boost your google rank" - no, it exists to provide information about Torquay, thus adding hotels in Torquay to the sleep section is adding value to the site. Please put the links back. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) 82.32.185.62 (talk • contribs) 23 June 2007
 * I didn't delete them. I changed them from an uninformative style designed to boost your google rank -- "Self Catered Luxury Holiday Home in Torquay" (Of course it's in Torquay, it's the Torquay page) -- to one that is more helpful to the traveler and is in compliance with our manual of style.  --(WT-en) Jonboy 21:51, 23 June 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for putting them back. You might be interested to learn that "self catering holiday home" would not "boost my google rank" any more or less than using the name of the hotel. And yes, you did delete them - it says so in the history. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) 82.32.185.62 (talk • contribs) 24 June 2007
 * No I didn't. --(WT-en) Jonboy 18:35, 24 June 2007 (EDT)

Apologies, I can see now that the user with IP address 212.84.182.136 is deleting them. He/she deleted them again today and I've put them back - is it possible you can block him/her? If you look through, it is the same address every time the "sleep" section is deleted. In fact, his only contribution to the site is deleting my links: http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/212.84.182.136 —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) 86.128.175.248 (talk • contribs) 28 June 2007

Also, I've added some content to the page in the other sections, using edited bits from the wikipedia entry for Torquay as well as adding my own parts - have I done this in the correct format?

Many thanks!

It doesn't matter what your link says it does help with your page rank!Change your link to a more informative link where people have the choice of accommodation, rather than directing them straight to you (or your client). Why not direct it to a site like the english riviera(tourist information)!?? Surely this will give the public more choice, and then if your site is on their directory they can choose to click on your link! I will stop deleting the links, but i will add in some more information about other accommodation resources. Thanks —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) 212.84.182.136 (talk • contribs) 2 July 2007

It is more informative to have a list of hotels/flats - look at other towns pages (for example, Exeter or Plymouth). The English Riviera website has an incomplete list of paid for advertisements, whereas this list could eventually become more complete and independent as anyone is free to add their establishment. 81.155.213.2 05:22, 5 July 2007 (EDT)

Internet Brands
I'm John, the GM of the Travel group at Internet Brands. While we have had a low profile on the site, I want to reach out to offer myself as a point of contact if you have any questions about IB, or if you have suggestions for how we can best support the Wikivoyage community. Happy to discuss either, here or via phone/email. (WT-en) Redondo 16:56, 3 August 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for the welcome. It is nice to be able to add a few things. (WT-en) FootskyJan07 21:26, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

wiki travel United Kingdom - 9 cities list
Hi there,

I have made some proposals to gain a concensus for ammending the 9 cities list to make it more accurate as it is currently inconsistent with the latest data regarding tourists to uk cities. Ideally I would like feedback from some of the people who have previously been involved in this discussion before making any changes. Can you please provide some feedback to my discussion proposals ( located under the "the old city problem", highlighted in bold "new data for 2007"

many thanks Dan --(WT-en) Daniel robinson 14:53, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

Why did you remove our information from the cities that we do business in?
We are the leading provider of luxury vacation rentals in BC. We live here, we have offices here and we provide both excellent resources for accommodations as well as information about the area in general. Why did you remove the updates I added yesterday? If anyone should be listed there, we have the right to be.

Explain yourself please.

On the Vancouver BC page, a condo we have represented is listed right above us. This unit is in the process of being sold and might not do vacation rentals in the future. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) emvr (talk • contribs) 7 Dec 2007

Hello, Jonestheg! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

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

Are you starting a campaign to convert English names to Welsh? There is already an article on Newport, albeit a not very good one. Trefdraeth should redirect to Newport (Pembrokeshire). Please feel free to insert the Welsh name at the beginning of the Newport article for clarification. thanks. (WT-en) Shep 16:25, 24 March 2010 (EDT)

I'm another Jordan Mills from the midwest (Madison, WI, USA). I've travelled some and love it. Top 3 travel destinations:  1. Machu Pichu   2. The Pyramids   3. Great Wall of China. MY top 3 travel destinations (places I've been to):  1. Amsterdam   2. Athens   3. Maui (moved to talk, (WT-en) Jordanmills 13:52, 19 September 2006 (EDT))

Texas cities
Hey there... since you know Texas well, do you wanna reduce the cities list down to 9, per policy? Austin, as the capital, should be listed first, then 8 more of the most notable (for travelers). :) – (WT-en) cacahuate   talk 03:16, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

Houston
Howdy fellow Texan. Two or three weeks ago, I did some work on the Houston area articles, districtifying the city and consolidating a few of the communities under district umbrella articles. Somehow I didn't notice you were the docent until just now, but anyhow you haven't posted since Feb. 5. I hope you'll give me some feedback when you get time. Thanks.. (WT-en) Texugo 04:41, 24 March 2008 (EDT)
 * Yep, I've been busy. Looks like good stuff.  I'll be sure to take a look through it.  Thanks, (WT-en) Jordanmills 18:49, 4 April 2008 (EDT)
 * I realize the Houston districtification is still a mess, but I just wanted to make this comment: When I started looking at this area, it seemed like several different communities' article claim to be the location of NASA, and I think we need to choose just one, don't you? (WT-en) Texugo 00:15, 5 April 2008 (EDT)
 * No. The JSC exists in several jurisdictions: Webster, Nassau Bay, Seabrook, Clear Lake City, and Pasadena.  All have a claim.  (WT-en) Jordanmills 11:01, 7 April 2008 (EDT)

Reverts
Um, OK, look. This is NOT the way to deal with this. I have spent a GREAT deal of time trying to come up with a way to subdivide this region, and I offered up a very lengthy explanation of the process on the Talk:Texas page. Why do you feel the need to revert all my hard work without suggesting something better or at least discussing?? I am offended honestly, and when I have time tomorrow it's all going back the way I had it. (WT-en) Texugo 12:05, 7 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Okay, you seriously need to stop reverting my region edits, especially if you're not going to discuss it. (WT-en) Jordanmills 12:09, 7 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Excuse me?? I gave everyone a lengthy explanation of my breakdown of sub-regions here. I spent 3 or 4 weeks working on this, and the 5 macro-regions of Texas really need to be broken down because each is like the size of Pennsylvania and there are far too many towns to be covered in one region article. Before you go eliminating my subdivisions and going back to what we had before, it is you that need to discuss and suggest something better. (WT-en) Texugo 12:17, 7 April 2008 (EDT)
 * I explained my scheme thoroughly yesterday on the Talk:Texas page. And I'm sorry but you know, I grew up on the High Plains. Everyone there knows what it is. Businesses are named after it, 806 area code phone book says it, news agencies use the phrase regularly. Llano Estacado area, same thing. Edwards Plateau, Permian Basin too. Fact one is that the five main areas need to be divided up somehow. If you don't like how I've done it so far, fine, suggest something better. But don't send the whole mess back to the drawing board without suggesting a better way.(WT-en) Texugo 12:34, 7 April 2008 (EDT)

 * Please direct any further comments to Talk:Texas. This should be a public discussion, not a private one. (WT-en) Texugo 12:49, 7 April 2008 (EDT)

Excuse me, but this is not the place for your childish spamming. Please cease all edits on Wikivoyage as your edits are no longer welcome here! -(WT-en) Nidsters 21:27, 5 February 2007 (EST)

I've got no interest in this particular war, but it's worth noting that the Willy on Wheels! impersonation has been done and is kind of a bore at this point. You're welcome to take a look at Project:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense, which is where we keep any vandalism that's worth remembering. Any other contributions will be gone shortly after you are, so that's probably your only chance to make a lasting contribution to the site. In the mean time, have fun doing what you're doing - I'm sure it's a real blast. -- (WT-en) Ryan 21:36, 5 February 2007 (EST)

Joseph,

Awesome idea for your class! Have fun with it.

Editing issues
(replying to Talk:Kumamoto)

While I don't think it's a problem for Wikivoyage to be used as a teaching/writing tool for school projects (it's been done in the past), I don't think that calls for leniency in editing on the part of "regular" contributors for the sake of beginners can be reasonably accommodated.

In fact, I would say the most important thing that starting Wiki contributors should know is that material will be quickly, mercilessly, and sometimes drastically, edited. Collaboration on a Wiki is not fifteen people sitting at a desk discussing a few pages for a few hours, it's hundreds of people actively editing hundreds of pages twenty-four hours a day. Things get changed first, then discussed if there's an issue. And Wikivoyage is a real, working travel guide, so stuff that doesn't meet certain standards needs to be fixed. We can't treat misguided but well-intentioned material much differently from vandalism or spamming.

This is something that every contributor needs to learn, and most will do so very quickly. If the students learn that, and I hope they will, then they'll do fine and contribute good, well-written material.

BTW, you can sign your writing by adding four tildes (~) -- (WT-en) Paul Richter 11:11, 11 Nov 2005 (EST)

 * Just to add a somewhat milder viewpoint, the issue here isn't the content, it's how that content is being organized. I think you have a couple of options:

 * Add the new content as attractions under the proper city/town article.
 * Create the new pages under your user page, and then copy them to the proper locations later on. For example User:(WT-en) Joseph tomei/project1.

 * Obviously option #1 would be preferred as it allows other users to edit and modify content that is being added. Also, apologies if you took offense at (WT-en) Jpatokal's terror squad comment, I believe it was meant in jest.  Thank you very much for the contributions you are making with your class, and please bear with us as we try to figure out how best to help you meet your goals within the context of a wiki and while also meeting our own goals. -- (WT-en) Ryan 11:21, 11 Nov 2005 (EST)

 * I'm very interested in how we can be welcoming for students and educators and still keep our regular working process. I wonder if we should start a Education Expedition ? --(WT-en) Evan 16:58, 11 Nov 2005 (EST)

 * Me too. I added my comments to Talk:Kumamoto, please take a look there too. (WT-en) Jpatokal 21:20, 12 Nov 2005 (EST)

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

You should also make sure you understand our copyleft and policies and guidelines, as they are a bit different. We use the Creative Commons by-sa V. 1 as our license for one thing. For another our articles tend to be a bit more structured (it sort of comes with the territory of making a travel guide).

Thank you for your image uploads and contributions to Mykonos, Paros, Woolacombe and others. Looking at the images there is one that has some people shown on the right side in Image:Panorama.JPG. You should review the Project:Image policy in the area of "People in photos". We don't normally include people in Wikivoyage photos and if we do a model release is required. Would it be possible to crop this photo?

Request for Photo Delete

i have changed it but cant seem to deleat the old one, is there a way?

Thanks again (WT-en) JossDude 03:09, 22 May 2006 (EDT)

 * It is not a problem. Only an administrator can delete. Normally we go through a process to vote on deletions (see Project:Votes for deletion), but I can do that without going through the process provided I have your permission. I believe Unix differentiates between lower case and upper case, so with your permission I will delete Image:Panorama.JPG and we will leave Image:Panorama.jpg. If that works, we will be left with the correct photo. If it whacks both, you may need to upload again. Thanks again for you contributions and also for cropping the photo. It is an excellent photo and will be a great addition to Wikivoyage. -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 12:05, 22 May 2006 (EDT)

Europe
Now, that I know you'll be traveling around Europe by train I can actually help you plan. What time would you want to leave Pamplona? Would you care to spend a night in Barcelona, or Madrid so we can ensure that you're in Berlin the day you need to be? - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 09:04, 2 June 2006 (EDT)

Glad you're still here
Will you do me a favor? On your InterRail ticket does it say something about trains leaving after 7 or 8 PM on a given day counts as the next day? I'm trying to get you to Pamplona on the 12th, but it appears that I can't get you there unless you can leave sometime after 8 or 10 PM on the 11th.-- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 06:03, 4 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Thankyou very much for doing this, i have just seen the time you have found! Where are you getting the information from? I dont have the accutally ticket yet as am getting it baught for me. I will look on the internet now to see if it says anything about it. Even if it does I can try to blag it as it will have bee nmy first day tavelling and can say have never done it before. (Will add the the adventure!) Can't thank you enough! (WT-en) JossDude 06:10, 4 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Can't see anywhere on the web where it says this needs to happen. Where did you here it from? It cant be true cause it is possible to get on sleeper trains.(WT-en) JossDude 06:19, 4 June 2006 (EDT)

 * I'm using the links I added to Rail travel in Europe. I spent a great amount of time writing that article and in 2004 I spent several thousand dollars riding the rail in Europe so I know pretty much how to do things. Might I ask where you are from and your age? I heard about the leaving a day earlier thing when I went travelling around Europe with my school group in 2002.

 * Unfortunately, I believe you made a small typo "blag," which, has thrown off my comphrehension of your comments. Did you mean to say: Even if it doesn't saying anything about it (Leaving a day earlier) that you would be willing to buy a ticket and leave a day earlier?

 * BTW, the bull run happens every morning at 8 AM, however, if you plan to run with the bulls you have to be in the area by 7:30 AM. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 06:26, 4 June 2006 (EDT)

 * Sorry completely my fault, I didn't read the initial information correctly. I have got my Eurostar ticket booked and that gets into Paris at 23:23 so it wouldn't be possible to get on a train at that time. Sounds a shame, this was the only time available to me on the cheap student price. If there is a train that leave after 23:23 (or idealy after 24:00 (so it is free due to my pass starting!)) that would be great!

I'm 17 (18 this month) and am going cause it will be my final year before Uni. Am from Leeds, U.K.

Will have a better look at the links you added to that page, Cheers (WT-en) JossDude 06:36, 4 June 2006 (EDT)

Love Parade
Since I wanted to help you out the best that I could I emailed the Love Parade organization and asked them the specific time the parade started. There will be a show prior to the parade, which starts at noon. The parade, itself, starts at 2 PM. So you'll probably have to leave Amsterdam early to get to the Cologne train station. A train to Berlin will take about 4 1/2 hours. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 09:37, 6 June 2006 (EDT) See User talk:Jc8136 for my tips for you. (WT-en) Jan 03:06, 7 June 2006 (EDT)

Travelogues
Hello JossDude, you have not responded to previous messages warning that Wikivoyage explicitly forbids using userpages as a personal home page or vacation photo service, but you have been using Wikivoyage exlusively for that purpose for the past year. As Evan and Ravikiran point out above, Wikivoyage does offer these services through Wikivoyage Extra; please move your travelogues there. I have blanked your travelogues to get your attention, as previous messages apparently did not, but the information is not permanently deleted and can be easily retrieved. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 21:24, 18 July 2007 (EDT)

Airlines
Check out Discount airlines in Europe. Not every airline flies directly from your departure location to your destination, but with a little creative planning you can fly from Madrid, to London and London to Berlin for about $100 and save many hours of travelling. If you have the option of using Easy Jet over Ryan Air ALWAYS go with Easy Jet. The reason for this is because Ryan Air will tell you you're landing in "Munich" when in fact you're really landing at an airport over 100 km away from Munich. Easy Jet, on the other hand will actually take you to the airport you request. Alternatively, you may want to consider flying to one city and then taking a train the rest of the way. In December 2004 I left Poland for a week and flew with Air Berlin from Warsaw to Dusseldorf, Dusseldorf to Zurich and took a train to Geneva and from Genevea traveled to Cahors via Toulouse. Sound like a lot to save a few extra bucks, but if you consider there are no Warsaw - Toulouse trains I saved money on not having to stay a night at a hotel, also I don't believe there are any Madrid - Berlin overnight trains.

And remember when you get to Pamplona write down everything you see! That way you can contribute to the article later, :) - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 17:04, 30 May 2006 (EDT)

 * I plan on getting the train everywhere as am going inter-railing hadn't realised that hadn't mentioned it earier. I hope i should be able to get from Pamplona to Berlin in a day, not sure how quickly you can get from one place to the next yet.

Anyway thanks for the advice, will keep you posted! (WT-en) JossDude 17:55, 31 May 2006 (EDT)

Sorry to revert your edits to the Taiwan page, but according to Wititravel policy lists should not exceed nine places. However, I have started a new page for Ilan City, which if you have the time would certainly benefit from any additions you care to make. Before proceeding, however, you might like to take a look at the information on this page: Project:Manual of style. Furthermore, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 09:05, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Sorry once again to delete your edits, but only external links to primary sources (such as a hotel or restaurant's own web page) are permitted. For your reference, please take a look at this page: Project:External links. (WT-en) WindHorse 09:11, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Thanks for your feedback. It is true that both Puli and Juifen are smaller than Ilan, but the criteria for which places are located on front page lists is not based on size, but on popularity with visitors. And, according to Taiwan gov info, both Jiufen and Puli are recognized tourist destinations (The info also states that Puli is also home to a large national university) and that is the reason for their inclusion. By the way, I have started a page for the Taipingshan Park. Again, any info you can add would be helpful. Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 10:33, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Sorry, again I had to revert. Wikivoyage uses the most common name in English for a destination, not the official name, and according to google hits, Ilan Taiwan is still more popular that Yilan Taiwan, though the gap is not huge. Actually, names in Taiwan are often a mixture of old with new on Wikivoyage, as some new spellings appear to have gained popularity quickly, while others have remain entrenched. Hsinchu vs Xinzhu is a good example of the latter. Please take a look at: Project:Article naming conventions. Cheers (WT-en) WindHorse 10:42, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Caoling Historic trail
Did you have any special reason for deleting the link for this hike on the Ilan County page? The page is already set up. (WT-en) WindHorse 11:44, 19 February 2007 (EST)
 * Ha Ha. No, you put it in 'Other destinations'. I moved it to 'Itineraries' as that's where hikes are listed. By the way, it must be new year in Taiwan, so Happy New Year! (WT-en) WindHorse 12:00, 19 February 2007 (EST)

 * No problem. I know that it is difficult at the beginning to get things right, but slowly you'll get into the swing of it. Take it easy. (WT-en) WindHorse 20:16, 19 February 2007 (EST)

 * You'll notice that I deleted the tab from some of your entries on the Ilan County article. This is because generally only centers of population get their own article. Waterfalls, lakes, museums etc are absorbed into the article for the nearest center of population. Take a look at this article, it will give you more details about this matter: Project:What is an article?. Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 20:26, 19 February 2007 (EST)
 * Hey - its me hassling you again. I moved many of the listing to appropriate city articles as the county listings should only be about general subjects - for example, the eat section could introduce Yilan speciality food and in the sleep section, style or quality of hotels can be discussed. Also on Wikivoyage all phone number are written with international codes, so for Yilan there will be written in this way: Tel:+886 3 XXX-XXXX. Cheers. Your doing a great job. 23:39, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Hello JP! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page.

If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub.

If you are a Wikipedian, or have previously used Wikipedia, then you may notice some differences in the style of our articles. These include:
 * Village pump → travellers' pub
 * be bold → plunge forward
 * NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
 * sandbox → graffiti wall
 * stub notes → Article status notes
 * External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.

Thanks for contributing!--(WT-en) JP 17:23, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for your excellent contributions to Abha! Always great to hear from another traveller in the Kingdom. Two small style notes though: please don't sign contributions to the articles (the History tab records who added what), and avoid first person pronouns ("I", "we").
