Thanks for your contributions to Sierra Leone and Freetown! But please check out Talk:Freetown for a few formatting issues. (WT-en) Jpatokal 04:01, 30 Apr 2005 (EDT)

 * Can I ask what you do for a living? Your destinations are all amazingly off the beaten track. (WT-en) Jpatokal 02:31, 14 Oct 2005 (EDT)

 * I travel around setting up broadcast radio transmitters for organisations like the BBC. That usually takes me to developing and particualrly 'post conflict' countries.  I have just seen your comments on Freetown - fair enough!  I am learing this wiki thing.  I hope this is right way to reply to your questions!  I have just arrived in Tashkent which is holiday, so I started a page for that.  I usually have net access where I go, so I play with the pages when I am bored.  I'll have to spend some time reading the help pages!

 * Don't fret the small stuff too much — others will hop in to fix in little bugs, and you've doing a great job so far. (WT-en) Jpatokal 07:55, 16 Oct 2005 (EDT)

Travellers' pub discussion
There's a discussion in the travellers' pub about whether we should have an article on "War zone safety". Care to comment? (WT-en) Pashley 00:46, 12 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Would you be willing to get that type of article started, since you have more experience than the rest of us in hostile political landscapes? I'll send an email off to the Pentagon to see what information they could offer. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 16:37, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
 * I will give it some thought. I guess the first thing is to come up with a template. I am off to Kinshasa for a week, so I may not have net access for a while or could be too busy. I will look at it though.(WT-en) David Stanley

help message in a bottle
Dear David,

I write to you following the wikivoyage article on Afganistan and a message from one of the wikivoyage collaborators. I have a dear friend who is about to go to Afganistan for some time and I am trying to make up a list of be carefull and watch out for things and also to do's and not to do's If you think you can find a couple of sprear minutes I would be more than thankful. My email address is n20045074 at yahoo dot com.

Kind regards, Alexandra

War zone safety
Thanks for all the great work on the article! I really wasn't expecting the article to come along so fast. Pentagon hasn't got back to me on my request for info, but I'm due to meet up with an Kentucky National Guard Recruiter this week and might ask him if they have any field guides available. Thanks again! - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 05:34, 26 June 2006 (EDT)

images
Can you upload images to Shared, then all language versions can use your images... and don't forget to select a license :)   – (WT-en) cacahuate   talk 01:24, 30 March 2007 (EDT)
 * I will have to work out how to upload them to shared. I guess it is documented somewhere! I put the correct license - I just forgot that.(WT-en) Davidbstanley 11:41, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

 * It's pretty simple... follow this link, which will then give you the option to either sign in if you've already got a username over on shared, or create a new one... or easier still, follow the link on that page for "Open ID" where you can login using your English username. Super simple. Thanks David! – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 22:55, 4 April 2007 (EDT)

Asst?
Do you need an assistant? I kinda want your job :)   – (WT-en) cacahuate   talk 23:23, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
 * Well the teavelling can be good. It often has low points though, usually when visiting Afghanistan! I was married last year, so travelling has lost a little of its appeal. I am in Bangladesh at the moment, which is quite nice. (WT-en) Davidbstanley 22:07, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

 * Cool! I was there a few months ago, if you get the chance, Saint Martins Island was worth the trip, it's pretty cool. Have you made it to Band-e Amir yet in Afghanistan? I thought that was pretty spectacular, and the journey there was nice too... – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 23:23, 9 May 2007 (EDT)
 * I am afraid I have not been to either! My visit here has been so busy, I have been visiting a different city each day and have not seen very much apart from the work visits I am doing.  I was in Chittagong yesterday, somewhere in the North West tomorrow.  As for Band-e Amir, I have not been there.  I want to go the first time I went to Bamiyan in 2002, but could not manage it. A friend went camping up there last year and said it was a good few days.

kabul?
Are you there now? How much of a pain is the new travel restriction? – (WT-en) cacahuate  talk 01:28, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
 * No I am in the UK at the moment. I will probably go back to Kabul in a month or so, but would not need to travel outside of Kabul. (WT-en) Davidbstanley 02:09, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

Please see the discussion here about the lists of non-stop flights to Chicago. You may want to inquire in the travellers' pub whether lists of those kind are desired in general — I don't believe our articles for major cities have included them in the past. That's not to say that aren't welcome, but it's best to check before you do any more work. (WT-en) Gorilla Jones 00:44, 2 April 2009 (EDT)

Lists of cities
Hi David! A word of advice -- when you add long lists of cities, like you did here, make sure the links go where you want them to go! For example, you linked to Buffalo instead of to Buffalo (New York) and you linked New York instead of New York (city). We don't want travelers to click on a link to see a city and instead see a disambiguation page, because they won't know what city you meant! If you could go back and check any lists you've created so far, we'd appreciate it a lot. Thanks! (WT-en) LtPowers 21:53, 2 April 2009 (EDT)

Wikivoyage is not, and should not, be guided by the whims nor bread and butter of business owners. Rather, Wikivoyage was founded and is still run to serve as a place for travellers to share information for the road per our goals and non-goals. Indeed, if your livelyhood depends on a listing on Wikivoyage, maybe its your business plan, rather than our policies, that needs a review.

In any case, the correct approach is to look at our tour policy, and argue for your business' inclusion on the Hoi An talkpage on that basis, rather than to engage in an edit war. Besides the current removals clearly has merits on your touty language alone; and would have been removed by anyone of our editors. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 04:52, 16 May 2010 (EDT)

I see that you have started work on Hampshire - there is obvously a lot more that can be added to the county. A couple of points on what you have done so far: (i) You can create a link to a page, without putting anything on the page - it then displays in red to let people know that it has not yet been started. This may be more helpful than opening a page and then just finding a "stub" message on it. You could also put a Template on it ready for people to use (eg. the code ). (ii) You do not need to move a page until it "clashes" with another one (eg. Eastleigh). See the article on Disambiguation for more details. -- (WT-en) DanielC 16:11, 24 May 2005 (EDT)

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

Thanks for your contributions to Cheyenne. There are a lot of places in the Rocky Mountains that could use some expansion; your help is appreciated, and maybe you can pitch in on some others too. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 13:10, 6 October 2006 (EDT)

Namibia Travel Advice
Hi. I'm looking to organise an independent trip for a small group of friends to Namibia, and am wondering if you have any advice about what I should bear in mind. It's likely to be a 2-week trip, and we're looking to drive the Skeleton Coast, as well as see other areas; if I get my way, we would do Fish River Canyon as well, but that's the other end of the country from the Skeleton Coast. The initial discussion that kicked off this idea concluded that we probably want two vehicles with off-road capabilities (one to cover the other should anything happen), but have very little ideas about what else we should consider, other than the usual travel medicine precautions (vaccinations and anti-malarials). Can you provide any advice? Any recommendations as to what to see, and the best time of the year to go would be wonderful too! -- (WT-en) brightlilim 12:50, 29 January 2011 (EST)

 * Having not travelled the Skeleton Coast, the advice I can give is fairly limited. You're definitely right about needing two off-road vehicles. If you are experienced with vehicle camping then you have some idea of what kind of supplies to you need to bring for yourself and your vehicle. Because the conditions are more extreme you need more supplies (specific to the environment) and doubles of everything. I think that the off-road vehicles rented out in Namibia come equipped with everything, but you'll have to check that. Also note that driving on Namibian roads (outside of cities) at night is extremely dangerous. It's best to avoid it altogether.

 * As for time of year, I would say any time in Namibia is decent weather-wise, it just depends what you can tolerate. It can get below zero in the winter. Summer can be quite hot, but not intolerable. Spring & fall are in between. --(WT-en) Dawnview 22:12, 31 January 2011 (EST)

 * Thanks for that. We're not planning on doing any night-time driving outside of the cities (and probably not even that if the main bits of Windhoek are withing walking distance of each other). We're not fond of the idea of it falling below zero - we get enough of it here in the UK, so we'll probably do a spring or autumn/fall visit (summer is probably out as it clashes with other commitments we have). If I may ask a few more questions:-
 * Is there a rainy season in Namibia as well as the normal temperate seasons?
 * How dangerous is the environment outside of the cities, in terms of animals? Do we have to worry about megafauna (like lions, elephants, buffalo, rhinos), or is it just the smaller critters (scorpions, spiders, ants, etc.) that are likely to get us?
 * Are we likely to encounter language difficulties outside of the cities? Although the official language is English, I can't imagine everyone speaking it, especially outside of the cities.
 * Have you been to the Sossusvlei or Fish River Canyon, and if so, would you recommend a detour to them?
 * -- (WT-en) brightlilim 16:21, 5 February 2011 (EST)

 * In Windhoek, and other cities, don't walk alone at night, and it's best not to walk at all after midnight.
 * Rainy season, if I recall correctly, is during Namibia's summer, November - February. I was in the Kalahari in Botswana in November the first night it rained. The flowers came out the next day and it was quite incredible.
 * As far as wildlife is concerned, there is everything you can imagine that will get you. I'm not sure about the Skeleton coast but I think most of the big wildlife is in the north of the country, for example in Etosha. In the Etosha campgrounds you have to be inside the gate before dark and then they lock it. I don't want to alarm you, but you should get some advice from someone who has experience with African wildlife, before going camping on your own. Most of the time I think people have more trouble finding the big game than staying away from it. :)
 * You won't encounter any language problems. Everyone speaks English.
 * Sossusvlei is worth it, but since you're travelling the Skeleton Coast, you'll be seeing essentially the same sights. I've never been to Fish River.
 * --(WT-en) Dawnview 08:13, 10 February 2011 (EST)

 * Thanks for that. I'll bear your advice in mind. I've been on a safari in Tanzania where we slept in tents on the rim of the Ngorongoro crater, and were told that if we wanted to go to the toilet at night, we should wake one of our armed guides to be escorted there as lions prowled the area at night... We also shook our boots in the morning before putting them on in case something had decided to crawl into them; after the first few days, we figured out that putting our socks over the tops of the boots would prevent anything small and nasty getting in! Like you say, we did experience some problems finding some of the big game even on safari; there was this one poor cheetah mother who ended up being stalked by 6 vehicles at one point because she was the only one that had been found that day by anyone in the area.

Welcome
Hello, Paul! 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.

Thanks for your help with Victoria. One small nit: it's a good idea to get in the habit of putting copyright information on pictures. Looking forward to working with you! --(WT-en) Evan 10:48, 29 Jan 2004 (EST)

 * Oof. Well, shot myself in the foot on that one! By putting images on Wikivoyage, you agree to license them under our Copyleft. If you want something to be by-nc, it can't be on Wikivoyage. I'm terribly sorry; not a very pleasant welcome, to entangle you in annoying license drivel! But we've tried very hard to be license-clean on the site, and I don't like letting this stuff slide. I can delete the file off our servers for you if you want. --(WT-en) Evan 23:09, 29 Jan 2004 (EST)

 * No worries. I'm actually just confused about what you meant. I understand that everything must be by-sa, and that's fine with me. I thought you wanted me to include information on what the original copyright was, which is why I labelled it by-nc (it is my photo, and that's how I've licenced it on my personal photos website). So, what should I put for copyright info? --(WT-en) Dawnview 22:24, 29 Jan 2004 (PST)

 * You can go ahead and delete the original file I uploaded though. I no longer need that one on the site. --(WT-en) Dawnview 22:29, 29 Jan 2004 (PST)

 * The main thing is that a lot of people tend to just find a good image on the Net and copy it to Wikivoyage, without checking with the original creator to make sure it's OK to release it under our license. (These are mostly people who haven't read the Project:Image policy, even though there's that "STOP!" message on the upload page.)

 * So other people who are more nitpicky about this kinda stuff, like me, watch for wording in the image page to the effect of "I took this picture" or "Copyright Me, released under by-sa". If it's not there, I get a little nervous. Even though it's kinda unlikely that you didn't take the picture or that you have rights to release it (I mean, it's a picture of you), it's a good habit to put source info on the picture. Anyways, thanks for the attention, and again, I'm sorry that your first welcome is license annoyances! I hope it hasn't scared you off. --(WT-en) Evan 14:28, 31 Jan 2004 (EST)

Hi, and welcome!

It appears that you are marketing some hotels here, so it's important for you to know what accommodation listings are supposed to look like here. Please read Project:Accommodation listings and Project:Don't tout. I would highlight the fact that hotel descriptions are supposed to focus on specific descriptions of the actual hotel, such as the rooms, and not whether it's "great" or how great its location is.

It is likely that many of the listings you've posted will be edited or deleted - or you could choose to edit them, yourself, in line with Wikivoyage guidelines; if you do that, you will demonstrate your good will and engender a lot of appreciation.

(WT-en) Ikan Kekek 05:06, 16 September 2011 (EDT)

 * A further comment: On Wikivoyage, it's not acceptable to promote a third-party website in a hotel listing. Please read Project:External links, focusing on the What not to link to section.

 * Thanks.

User talk:(WT-en) Día

== UN BEAU CADEAU DE NOËL ==

Nous sommes le 22 Décembre en train de faire les courses à Auchan, et là mes parents m'annoncent la bonne surprise: Warren, on a bien réfléchit, et ton cadeau de noël sera un voyage en Espagne... à BARCELONE!!! Je vous laisse imaginer l'état dans lequel j'étais... Plaza Cataluña, Parc Güell ou encore Sagrada Familia, sans oublier les soirées espagnole... Le rêve!

Les choses sérieuses peuvent alors commencer... Dès le lendemain j'étais à la recherche du moyen le moins cher pour ce voyage; le train avec la SNCF ou encore la Renfe... trop cher et pas assez confortable; le bus avec Eurocard...perso une demi journée assis sans avoir de place pour les jambes, non merci. Il nous reste donc l'avion...j'aurais tout fait: Air France, Easy Jet, Vueling, Ryanair, Iberia... bref tout! Au final, merci Iberia et ses offres dernières minutes qui m'ont permis de faire un aller-retour Bordeaux Barcelone à seulement 50€... sympa non?

Maintenant, deuxième phase; le logement... alors la palette de choix est très longue; en commençant par les hôtels avec des chaînes du type Iris, Grand Marina ou je sais encore quel Meridien... un peu cher à mon goût! On me conseil alors de regarder vers la collocation, mais pourquoi partager un appartement lorsque vous pouvez avoir, pour le même prix, un appartement à vous tout seul? Le choix était vite fait! Lorsque je suis allé sur des sites de logement du type Loquo ou encore Niumba, je suis tombé à mainte reprises sur l'entreprise Dailyflats... Je croyais que c'était une blague...les appartements sont sincèrement de luxe! Et les prix sont pourtant petits... Au final j'opte pour un appartement à quelques mètres de la fameuse Sagrada Familia... Avec terrasse et Jacuzzi s'il vous plait! Un petit séjour de prince s'annonce... alors les escrocs qui sous-louent leur appartements, je vous les laisse! Moi je dis: Dailyflats, Warren arrive chez vous!

Bien sur toutes ces recherches, je les ai faites à la dernière minute, et de ce fait sans réelle organisation, mais partir à l’aventure ne peut que nous forger et nous faire murir parait-il...

Le jour j enfin arrivé, direction Barcelone après quelques jours passés à Paris en skouatant les KFC, Quick et autres Mc Donald's et bien sur non pas sans avoir fait un petit tour rue Rivoli, Chatelet, Clignancourt pour faire les magasins et évidemment je n'ai pas omis de faire quelques petites photos devant la Tour Eiffel, le Louvre, l'Arc de Triomphe et j'en passe... Mais tout ça n'aurait pas était aussi amusant sans mes amis d'enfance...

Autant vous dire qu'une certaine fatigue aurait pu m’atteindre pour un départ d'autant plus que nous étions le 02 janvier avec derrière soit le nouvel an passé sur les Champs Elysées, et bien non, l'excitation était au rendez-vous pour me réveiller. Une petite heure et demi de vol devant le film American Gangster et me voilà arrivée à Barcelone avec toutes mes valises au bras, et là un homme, surement de la Guardia Civile, commence à sortir certains bruits de sa bouche, de l'Espagnol, ça doit être cela… Dur déjà de comprendre le Castillan, mais lorsque l'on parle de Barcelone, c’est de Catalan que l’on parle, et là, ça en devient presque incompréhensible.

Après une petite demi-heure, me voilà hors de l'aéroport du Prat... je vais où maintenant? Ça je n'y avais pas pensé, il est seulement 9h30 et mon check-in n'est qu'à 15h... 4 valises pendant 5h... bon une petite organisation s'impose, le Samsung avec la puce Movistar d'une main pour appeler Dailyflats et le I-Phone de l'autre pour regarder sur Tom-Tom comment je peux faire pour aller jusqu'à la Sagrada Familia...quel homme d'affaire, impressionnant non?

Au final, je saute dans un de ces taxis noir et jaune qui me dépose devant l'immeuble de Dailyflats, grâce à Dieu, ils ont eu la bonne idée de me proposer de garder toutes mes valises à la réception... Au passage, je repère un Pizza Hut...vite à table!

Les 15h arrivent très rapidement et l'excitation est à son comble à l'idée de voire l'appartement, je me présente donc, après avoir pris pleins de photos de la Sagrada Familia avec le Sony offert par tatie, à la réception de l'immeuble... dans l'ascenseur, mon cœur bas aussi fort que des baffles Philips... et là, la surprise et de taille; non seulement l'appartement est de loin supérieur à mes espérances, je croyais rêver, pendant un petit instant je me suis pris pour Nicolas Sarkozy en déplacement à Barcelone... Plus j'avançais dans l'appartement plus je me demandais si ils ne c'étaient pas trompé vue le luxe du logement! Mais ça ne s'arrête pas là, qui étais là? Ma chère petite amie, Jessica avec sa plus belle robe Dior offerte par lors d'un défilé du salon de coiffure Franck Provost...Autant dire, plus magnifique que jamais!

Imaginez-vous la chose; vous êtes avec votre compagne à Barcelone, dans un appartement plus que luxueux avec vue sur Sagrada Familia et Jacuzzi pendant une semaine de délire...Que demander de plus? Merci Papa et Maman!

Après de retrouvailles bien fêtées, il nous nous devions d'aller faire un petit tour dans le Jacuzzi.. une petite bouteille de Cristal de chez Roederer le maillot de bain Rip Curl (observez le contraste de qualité) et nous voilà dans les bulles du Jacuzzi buvant surement le meilleur champagne qui existe... Le séjour s'annonce paradisiaque!

Après une fraiche nuit passée, que dire sur cette ville lorsqu’on ouvre les yeux… que de diversité culturelle, des paysages vous sautant aux yeux, l’immensité de la ville n’en finissant pas de nous faire découvrir de nouveaux monuments, de nouvelles places etc. tous les 100 mètres; on ne peut que rester bouche baie face à Barcelone. La population y est aussi très accueillante et les rencontres n’en sont que plus belles.

== PLAZA CATALUñA ==

Voilà maintenant déjà 2 jours que je me trouve à Barcelone avec Jessica ou, autrement dit, de plein pied face aux choses sérieuses qui se traduisent, dans mon cas, par ce qui est devenu maintenant un peu plus qu’un son sortant de la bouche des gens mais belle et bien une langue : l’Espagnol.

Il m’aura pas été bien difficile de trouver un nouveau sujet pour cet article qui, je l’espère, enjolivera vos yeux. En effet, il m’est devenu presque impossible ici de m’ennuyer, les activités ne manquant pas à l’appel. Cependant, afin d’être le plus pertinent qu’il soit, il est, selon moi, très important de parler de la Plaza Catalunya qui reste de fait l’un des lieux les plus connus de Barcelone, non pour son Burger King, mais pour d'autres choses vous allez voire...

Mais lorsque l’on parle de cette immense place face à laquelle on ne peut que rester sans voix, on se doit de ne pas oublier les Ramblas qui la mène jusqu’à la statut de Christophe Colomb.

Afin de vous conter mes pensées, je pense que l’expression « Le jour et la nuit » va à merveille puisque effectivement, de jour ou de nuit nous pouvons observer deux facettes différentes de la Plaza Catalunya.

En commençant par le jour, la première chose remarquable se fait dans les souterrains du métro. En effet, il est rare de voire une telle réactivité des vendeurs à la sauvette, aussi illégal que cela peut-être ces personnes m’ont réellement surpris puisqu’elles sont très actives ; il pleut, on vous propose des parapluies tous les 10m, le soleil montre son bout du nez, on passe aux lunettes de soleil et cela à quelques minutes d’écart. Lorsque l’on sort de ces souterrains, la première réaction est bien évidemment de lever les yeux face à l’immensité des édifices tel que le Corte Ingles et son gigantesque thermomètre (affichant en cette saison quelques 12 ou 13°C ce dit en passant…), La Fnac ou encore le Hard Rock Café....

Lorsque nos yeux redescendent à hauteur d’homme la diversité culturelle et l’attractivité de la ville sont facilement remarquables se traduisant par une diversité innombrable d’origines et de touristes. Des Argentins aux Vénézuéliens en passant par des Equatoriens et j’en passe… De surcroît, seul se retrouver sur cette place me parait être réellement impossible, de fait, foule à toutes heures il y a. Parmi cette foule se distinguent quelques automates exerçant des choses peu communes telles que se déguiser en guerrier fait de bouteilles en plastiques entre autres.

Il faut cependant faire attention, car ici quand le bonhomme est rouge pour traverser et le feu encore rouge, vos avez tous ces espgnols armés (oui oui ça en devient presque une arme) de leur scooter Suzuki, BMW ou encore MBK qui démarrent sur les chapeaux de roues tels un Michael Shumacher au volant de sa Ferrari... et autant dire que les petits touristes qui se sont crus dans leur petite ville de Bordeaux comme moi...ils s'en foutent de les envoyer au sol comme l'aurait fait Michael Jordan avec l'un de ses crossover fulgurant!

Les heures passant on se retrouve maintenant dans l’obscurité de la nuit, c’est alors qu’apparaît la seconde face de la Plaza Catalunya.

Il faut donc laisser place aux lumières à l’Américaine vues sur la plus part des carte postales de New York au Los Angeles, à la foule venue, non pas pour travailler ou faire le tour des Zara, Bershka ou autres Massimo Duti que l'on trouve tous les 3 mètres, mais belle et bien pour faire le fête, ou tout au moins passer un moment conviviale. De ce fait, les vendeurs à la sauvette se transforment en offreurs de flyers donnant la possibilité d’entrer dans tel ou tel bar, restaurant ou encore discothèque gratuitement accompagné d’un chupito ou je ne sais quel verre de J&B, Jack Daniel's ou Ballantines, Les artistes des Ramblas, eux, laissent place à une autre sorte d’activité par définition illégale puisqu’il s’agit de la prostitution, j’en resterais qu’à cette constatation et me passerais de commentaires…

Tout le monde fait alors don de sa présence sur cette place pour se détendre, il est donc très facile de rencontrer énormément de personnes qui viennent le plus souvent nous voire en remarquant de bien loin notre non appartenance à l’Espagne.

Cependant, un petit point négatif non négligeable mais explicable caractérise la Plaza Catalunya; l’amusement et les prix vont de pairs : importants ! Je laisserai sans commentaires les Daddy Yankee, Don Omar ou autres Zion qui me cassent le crâne à chaque fois que nous allons en boîtes de nuit (au passage la Pacha de Barcelone, rien avoir avec celle de Ibiza!).

 * I've started a discussion about your header changes at Project:Article templates. It would be a pretty big change for us, but the idea is interesting and worth discussing further.  In the mean time I've put your changes in the Holbox article directly (rather than as a template) so that you can experiment further if desired.  Note that this sort of change varies greatly from our Project:Small city article template, so please don't be surprised if someone else reverts it to our standard styles.  Thanks for contributing! -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 21:23, 8 April 2010 (EDT)
 * I do apologize for any inconvenience caused, I didn't know about your rules on editing. I edited the article like that cause Holbox is a place that I know and is special for me. But I understant the importance of respect for your rules on editing, also I'm able to adjust me to those.-- ((WT-en) DCetina)

Can you please list the sources of all the images you have uploaded -- are they really available under the CC by-sa license, which is absolutely necessary for using the pictures here? (WT-en) Jpatokal 02:54, 9 Feb 2006 (EST)

Image licenses
Just to reiterate what (WT-en) Jpatokal said above, we absolutely cannot use any images here that aren't licensed CC-SA. Thus, either you need to be the photographer of the image being uploaded, or the photographer needs to specifically state that they are releasing it under the CC-SA license. Unfortunately all of the images that you have uploaded are found elsewhere on the web under different licenses, so we have listed them under Project:Votes for deletion. If you are the photographer of each of these images please indicate so on the image pages, and we can then re-incorporate all of them into Wikivoyage.

Woah! Thanks for your additions, but please have a look at Project:Don't tout and Project:Welcome, business owners. Adding lots of listings to the same business is generally frowned upon. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:59, 11 August 2009 (EDT)

Thanks for getting to work on Naoshima, the article desperately needs some attention! (WT-en) Jpatokal 05:31, 27 April 2008 (EDT)

Things to watch for and verify:

"Stumbled across a small bakery/cafe in Vladivostok run by a very helpful Englishman and his Russian wife. Stocked up on pastries for the train journey, also a small book exchange there. Forget the address but its called Five O'Clock and is on the pedestrianised street up from the football stadium."

Hello, DedicaredDreamer! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

Riyadh
You left the following statement in your edit ''bd. Please learn to simply RESPECT the fact someone knows about a place you never stepped your foot in better than you do, instead of ignorantly editting this article with what I know KNOW is false'' I assume it is concerning the rollback of your edit by another user. Wikivoyage is based on consensus and I too reverted your last edit mainly due to the incorrect formatting you inserted in one of our templates. Please have a look first what our policies and style are and then start editing. Thank you for your effort, (WT-en) jan 10:57, 10 March 2010 (EST)

 * Regarding your rather petulant comment at Riyadh, the reversion I made was because you added a bizarre Skype tag inside one of our standard listing templates. Whether or not I know Riyadh (as it happens, I do, having first visited about 17 years ago), is irrelevant.
 * On another note, can you please stop adding cities to the Middle East article list. I have removed Kuwait and Bahrain twice now. It is an established practice at Wikivoyage that only 9 cities are listed in a region article. If you believe Kuwait and/or Bahrain should be part of the 9, you should discuss it on the talk page. Thanks very much.--(WT-en) Burmesedays 10:59, 10 March 2010 (EST)

Thanks for plunging forward and contributing to Mount Bromo. One wee point about writing style though. You should avoid using the first person pronouns, such as I or we, as Wikivoyage articles are written by many different authors and are being written to inform travellers rather than just to document your own personal experience. Rephrasing by using you should be tried instead. (You can use the first person on the talk pages or your user page.)

BTW: Can we fix it - Yes we can! -- (WT-en) Huttite 06:27, 19 January 2009 (EST)
 * And I did ... rewrite it as a general warning. Also, do you have the phone number for the Cafe Lava? If so, please add it to Mount Bromo. -- (WT-en) Huttite 06:54, 19 January 2009 (EST)

Welcome!
Hello, Gerbil. I've been looking through your edits of London-area guides, and they're great! I tweaked a few small things, but that happens; everyone's text is edited here. And the really important thing is the content.

It looks to me like you're off to a flying start, but if you ever have any questions, feel free to ask them here or at the Project:Travellers' Pub where, unfortunately, none of that great English ale that I had on my last trip to London is available. If you're interested, also feel free to look at pages like Project:Manual of Style at your leisure.

Cheers!

Hello!

Welcome to Wikivoyage. If you want to specialize your experience you may want to consider editing your preferences. Please take a second to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you're new to the whole wiki community look at the Wiki markup to get an idea of how to use the wiki markup. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 01:53, 18 May 2006 (EDT)

thanks for the words.I m so exicted to begin my trip through    wikivoyage.

Travellers' pub question
The genre (type) of movie you asked about is called a documentary or sometimes a travelouge. Unfortunately, there are few films like this that cater to travellers. Conde Nast Traveller did do a survey among its readers of which commercial films they believed best depicted the destinations the film was based in. You may be able to find this article by searching Conde Nast's website. Also, there are a few travel channels available in the U.S. and worldwide via satellites.

Also, regarding uploading images to Wikivoyage I don't think the idea is feasible because of the amount of space videos would require. Also, Wikivoyage attempts to prevent articles and images from being personal so that they can be used by others. Most travellers that make videos often make videos of family at the Arc de Triumph in Paris, and that just wouldn't be very helpful to other travellers. The best thing to do regarding visual depictions of destinations is to use images and maps. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 00:30, 11 June 2006 (EDT)

Siberia
Ok, the reason I deleted the links was because it was under the header "External links," which we no longer use on Wikivoyage because "We should have travel information in Wikivoyage, not linked to from Wikivoyage. This is an incentive issue; if we have lots of links to other travel guides, we lose the impetus to create our own. In addition, many users print copies of Wikivoyage articles, and therefore need information to be within the article rather than linked to at another site." Also, please read over Where did the External links section go?, which will explain why we no longer use that section. I'm afraid I'll have to delete the links again, however I'm willing to work with you. Are the movies really useful? If the movies are useful and informative, not just pure entertainment then please put the links in the "Understand" section and place a note on the talk page, ok? -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 01:49, 2 July 2006 (EDT)
 * Actually, I didn't realize the link was a download. We'll have to ask others what they think first because allowing this will encourage others to add links also. Unfortunately, someone may not have great intentions and the download may in fact be a virus. Please see the discussion in the Travellers' pub. -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 01:54, 2 July 2006 (EDT)

the spelling
No one expects perfect spelling, but I would like to point out that the correct spelling of "the" is not "teh", and taking the time to get this correct would make your comments much easier to read. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 13:50, 3 July 2006 (EDT)
 * thx for mentioning, i always do that and relay on the spell checkers.but i haven't seen one still in wikivoyage,anyway i will try to remmber that every time.thanks agin for mentioning

Hey I see you are doing a lot of good work on our Utah articles! Are you from there, or just very familiar with the area? --(WT-en) Peter Talk 17:06, 8 August 2007 (EDT)

Wikipedia links
Hi, DeepPurple and welcome! Policy on these links is at: Project:Links to Wikipedia. In general we minimize the links in the article text. I thought the one you had on the trees OK and left it, but someone else might disagree later. Folks can look up anything they don't understand easily enough on their own if necessary, but we should really have the cool stuff here anyways (for example you explained the unusual nest of the bird--maybe could even expand on that). A standard Wikipedia link is provided in the left margin as explained. Good stuff, though. Keep it coming! (WT-en) OldPine 11:41, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

The photo in question went through the Project:Votes for deletion process. I nominated it because it was against our Project:Image_policy policy.
