Welcome
Hello, Photowalks! 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.

Thanks for your contributions, but please read Project:Don't tout, Project:Welcome, business owners and Project:External links. While I'm sure it wasn't your intention, copying the same link to multiple articles and multiple times within the same article is considered spamming and is thus subject to reversion. For a photo tour, adding a single link (with description & contact info) to the appropriate district article of Boston under the "Do" section is preferable. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 15:02, 19 January 2009 (EST)

Thanks for the addition to Shibuya — however, we don't write separate articles about individual sights (like Hachiko), unless they're really big (like Tokyo Disneyland), so I've put the Hachiko story back into Shibuya.

Romanian translation Tirana
Hi - I'm glad to see you attempted to translate the article Tirana from Romanian to English. I wrote that article in Romanian, and never did I think it would reach the English Wikivoyage in that form! Yes, Romanian is a bit different to French and Italian (grammar, vocabulary, etc). If you want, I will translate the article into English. Or, if you want help with any words, just ask me and I'll be glad to help. Cheers, (WT-en) Ronline 19:52, 25 Jan 2004 (EST)

 * Deşi Cehia este o ţară fostă comunistă, rămâne cea mai bogată ţară din Europa de Est, însemnând că Praga va părea foarte mult ca un oraş din Europa de Vest - this sentence means the following in English:

 * Even though Czechia is a former Communist country, it remains the wealthiest country in Eastern Europe (NB. "bogată" in Romanian doesn't only refer to wealth in terms of GDP for countries, so, even though Slovenia has a higher GDP per capita than Czechia, Czechia is more "bogată" - richer overall, with better services, etc.), meaning that Prague will seem very much like a Western European city.

 * "Timp" and "ceas" are different in Romanian - "timp" means "time", "ceas" means "clock" literally. However, "ceas" can also be used to refer to time - like, "Cât e ceasul?" - "What's the time?". Timp, on the other hand, is more general like, "E timpul de mâncat" - "It's time to eat", or "Timpul e urât" - "The time is ugly (lit.)" meaning "The weather is not very nice" - like in French "le temps".

Admin status
Pierre, you've now got admin privileges. Please look over the Project:Administrators page to make sure you know what you can and can't do, and re-login to make sure your cookie gets cleared and your new privs get updated. Also, watch the "Protect this page" link, as it's on a hair-trigger. Thanks for taking on this kinda boring work. B-) --(WT-en) Evan 17:10, 28 Jan 2004 (EST)

Pages
Pierre, thanks. Yes, but I wasn't sure what to do when Kuala Lumpur was already there, so I couldn't move Kuala Lampur [sic] into that article name. On Wikipedia, I believe what I would do is delete one of the articles to move the other into its place. This all stemmed from a typo on User:(WT-en) Maj/Todo which I clicked on and thought there was no article yet. :) (WT-en) Fuzheado 21:16, 30 Jan 2004 (EST)

Questions

Can you have a look at the questions I put on the Travellers'_pub and Evan's talk page. He may be busy with the server or something else. Thanks. (WT-en) Yann 08:39, 21 Feb 2004 (EST)

Go-between reports
So, for the go-between reports, I'm personally not that interested in horse-race results about number of pages added, number of users, etc.

For me, the health of the wiki is measured by the community there. Like, how are the help pages going? Is there a manual of style? What policy questions have come up lately (spelling, tu vs. vous, etc.), and how have they been resolved?

What technical issues are getting in the way of developing the site? If we have short-term goals for the wiki (e.g., getting certain Wikivoyage: namespace pages done in the first month), how are they progressing?

I'm more interested in keeping the communities in touch and less interested in keeping them in competition. Yeah, I know that sounds all Star Trek, about learning and sharing and caring, but it does kinda matter. --(WT-en) Evan 08:48, 22 Feb 2004 (EST)

Calendar
Hey, so, I think the calendar should point one way: from the date pages to destination pages. Not the other way around.

I don't like the way that pages look with lots of links to random things like month names. Not that the look bothers me, but it seems to encourage Wikipedia-like mad linking.

Anyways, I wonder if we can hold off on this right now. --(WT-en) Evan 09:00, 3 Mar 2004 (EST)

Wechselbot
Pierre, I commented on your Wechselbot idea on Project:Script nominations. (WT-en) DhDh 17:04, 5 Mar 2004 (EST)

Brazilian Portuguese phrasebook
Hi Pierre, I just floated a suggestion on the Phrasebook talk page that Brazilian Portuguese should have its own phrasebook. What do think? --(WT-en) Paul Richter 00:19, 19 Mar 2004 (EST)

Admin nomination
Pierre, I've just nominated User:(WT-en) Huttite for admin status. Please have a look at Project:Administrator nominations. (WT-en) Dhum Dhum Akubra 11:06, 24 Mar 2004 (EST)
 * Thank you for your vote of support as a potential administrator. Though, respectfully, I feel I must decline the nomination at this time. - (WT-en) Huttite 05:54, 25 Mar 2004 (EST)

Upgrade

Also, tomorrow's my day for creating test.w.o. --(WT-en) Evan 01:44, 8 Apr 2004 (EDT)

Go-between report
So, I think the last go-between report for fr: was in March -- about 2-1/2 months ago. Any news? Things going well? --(WT-en) Evan 19:25, 2 Jun 2004 (EDT)

Sort Ascending?
The instructions at the top of Project:Votes for deletion says to add new items to the top of the list of proposed deletions. Did you invert the list? :-) -- (WT-en) Colin 13:53, 13 Jun 2004 (EDT)

 * Evan fixed the instructions to match, so nevermind :-) -- (WT-en) Colin 14:32, 13 Jun 2004 (EDT)

Fixing Wikipedia Link?
So you made an edit to Newark (California) to "fix wikipedia link". On my web browser, it appears that you changed a working link into a non-working link (the link text doesn't appear at all now). Is my browser defective, or ?? -- (WT-en) Colin 23:22, 15 Jul 2004 (EDT)

 * Ok, now I get it. I'd never noticed that little Other/sites languages line at the bottom of pages before.  Thx.  I guess I get to fix a bunch of my stuff now :-) -- (WT-en) Colin 00:07, 16 Jul 2004 (EDT)

Casino Spammer
Don't worry. If (s)he comes back we'll do as before, and revert the links. Let's not block IP addresses until we absolutely must. It's probably dynamic, so it will do no good anyhow. If the spammer returns with the same IP it will make more sense, but I figure it's better to wait and see. -- (WT-en) Mark 06:09, 19 Aug 2004 (EDT)

Chinese Fonts
I'm running Debian unstable, with KDE 3.3. I don't think the KDE or X versions matter really so much as just being able to get the font packages which I did with

apt-get install xfont-intl-* xfonts-efonts-unicode* ttf2pt1-chinese tfm-arphic*

I'm also running a package called fonts config, which sets up my X font configuration for TrueType, which is why I installed the ttf and tfm packages. To be honest I'm not sure which worked, because I took such a shotgun approach.

Now, bear in mind that I don't mind giving up the disk space. If you run RH I'm sure that there are similar packages out there, but I don't know what they would be called. I know that you can look up those packages on Debian's website to find out the upstream source, and install from source if you like. -- (WT-en) Mark 01:09, 11 Oct 2004 (EDT)

French Region Maps
Hi Pierre. I noticed that you provided the great maps for the French regions of Brittany and Corsica.... Are the rest of the maps available? (Maybe on French Wikivoyage?) If so, can we access them to place on new regions as they are created (such as Haute-Normandie?? All the best (WT-en) Pjamescowie 11:41, 11 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Script nominations
Could you take a peek at the two latest Project:script nominations and give your yea or nay? --(WT-en) Evan 17:05, 28 Oct 2004 (EDT)

New admin nominees
So, I just nominated three new people for admin status. Since it takes the approval of two other admins to get one of these nominations approved, I'd appreciate it if you could drop in to Project:administrator nominations and show your support (or lack thereof). And, yes, this is just a copy-and-paste of the messages I've put on the other admins' talk pages. --(WT-en) Evan 17:18, 9 Nov 2004 (EST)

Go-between report for fr:
The last go-between report for fr: was on 26 October 2004. These are supposed to be monthly reports, per the Project:Language version policy. I know you've had some connection problems since the Nov 25 outage, but is there any way we can get some status in the Project:Logbook on what's going on on fr:? If you want, you can email me (evan at wikivoyage dot org) and I'll add it to the logbook. --(WT-en) Evan 12:08, 9 Feb 2005 (EST)

Go-between report
So, any news you could pass on from fr:? Are you still acting as admin there? --(WT-en) Evan 09:08, 8 Jun 2005 (EDT)

Election for a new administrator in french Wikivoyage
Hi Pierre,

There is an election for one new administrator for the french wikivoyage. I've nominated (WT-fr) Julien because he has now a good experience on Wikivoyage (revert spam, check licence compatibility, etc.) and I think it's better to have 2 administrators dedicated to the french version. Please, could give your vote too? Thanks. --(WT-en) Quirk 15:35, 18 Nov 2005 (EST)

Chalé Mineiro
Hi, Pierre. I think you have disabled your "mail this user" feature, so I'm using your talk page for this issue - feel free to delete it anytime. I've called Angélica this morning and she said she would send me the Swift code you need for the transfer. I gave her my mobile number and tonight she sent me an SMS confirming that your reservation (dorm room) has been guaranteed without need for the transfer. The message had no other info but I think it'll be ok because Chalé Mineiro isn't a particularly busy hostel, and it mustn't be for the period you've booked. Anyway, I'm sending her now an e-mail asking her to send you the confirmation by e-mail too, in case you haven't received it. Cheers, (WT-en) Rmx 20:38, 10 Jan 2006 (EST)

If you go to Minas Gerais I would suggest you to go to the historical cities (Ouro Preto/Mariana/Tiradentes/Sao Joao Del Rei) If you have enought time you could also go north of BH and try Diamantina.
 * Sorry, didn't make it. I found out just before I left that I had to change my address and resubscribe to mailing lists. -(WT-en) phma 03:45, 22 Feb 2006 (EST)

Admin nomination

Brazilian cities
Pierre, you've been a great contributor to the Brazil article, which needs to have its list of cities seriously downsized. I've come up with a proposal based on government statistics. Those do not necessarily reflect the needs and views of English-speaking travellers, so as you are very familiar with the country, maybe you'd like to join the discussion and help deciding which cities to keep on the list.

Welcome, business owner. Your listing Castaway is placed in the Do and Sleep section of the Ko Lipe article. Listings are only allowed in one section, so one of them has to be removed and the information added to the other listing. Is your listing primarily a hotel or primarily a dive shop? --(WT-en) globe-trotter 23:38, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

 * sorry if I came across as passive-aggressive, didn't mean too, had already read rules about other owners not editing competitors listings, just felt a bit peeved as didn't understand, the rules regarding two listings. really had no intention of touting, just wanted to add info about a service we provide, once I understood the two listings logic I add the service to the dive operations section as it is offered through the dive centre.

 * Now though I feel penalized, as you have removed my dive companies listing, that's is a legitimately separate business, from the resort, it is a separately list Ltd, it has it's own website, and has it's own management and although on the same beach it has its own building beach being over 2km long.

 * would love to add more info about the island general, and sorry if I make mistakes in where I place the info in advance,if you would like me to write the intro to Freediving would love too. think I understand now how you guest would like it mentioned, it is an interesting sport and would add to pages interest (WT-en) Pierre drake 00:28, 18 October 2011 (EDT)

Dive sites
Hi Pierre drake,

You may be interested in writing up some of your local dive sites. This can be as simple as filling in a bit more detail in Diving in Thailand of as complex as creating a regional dive guide for Ko Lipe similar to Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay, complete with sub articles for all the sites (like Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay/Star Wall) or anywhere in between. I would be happy to assist with formatting and setting up articles. Cheers, • • • (WT-en) Peter (Southwood) Talk 14:47, 21 January 2012 (EST)

PiotrK, are you also the one who released the image under CC-BY-SA license? The reason I ask is because the user who uploaded the image here has been caught on Wikipedia, Commons, and Wikivoyage lying about who created images, and the licenses they are available under. Also, if you did not release the image under CC-BY-SA would you be willing to so we can use the image on Wikivoyage? Thanks. - (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 14:17, 29 May 2006 (EDT)

Similarly for this one. I reluctantly deleted it owing to an incompatible license -- we have to be unfortunately hard-nosed about licensing issues.

Wikipedia links
I see you made a link to Wikipedia's Polish cuisine article for Poland. Ideally Wikivoyage should have its own summary of Polish cuisine (traveller focussed) since one of the goals is for Wikivoyage to be complete, and another goal is for it to be useful if you print it off and stick it in your pocket. Unfortunately we can't copy the wikipedia article right in without the authors agreeing to the new licence :( -- (WT-en) Hypatia 20:22, 2 Nov 2004 (EST)

 * It would be much easier if WikiTravel shared same licence with Wikipedia, but I guess this has been already debated to death without me asking why it isn't so...so I'll just ask what is the policy on copying parts off articles from one Wiki to another and vice versa? Piotrus

Welcome and some remarks
Hello. Welcome, and thanks for adding content.

Please respect and maintain the alphabetization of any alphabetized (or mostly alphabetized, because someone else has messed up the alphabetic order a bit) sections, such as "Sleep" sections in the Siem Reap guide, and also please have a look through Project:Manual of Style, and pages linked therefrom. One type of edit that is particularly frowned upon is substituting one listing for another without a valid explanation in an edit summary. You may not have noticed edit summaries. They are very useful, both for the editor and others who can read them in the editing history of an article, for example:.

Please feel free to ask any questions you might have, either here, at Project:Travellers' Pub, or as relevant, in talk (discussion) pages for particular articles, such as Talk:Hanoi.

All the best,

(WT-en) Ikan Kekek 08:03, 27 May 2012 (EDT)

 * Hi, Pippilongstocking. Please have a look at Talk:Hanoi. I think I have a sense of why you have been substituting one listing for another in the Hanoi guide, but since there wasn't enough room in your edit summary to fully explain it, please do so on the talk page. Much appreciated.

 * And by the way, when I was a kid, I enjoyed the Pippi Longstocking books very much. My mother read them to me and I read them, myself. (WT-en) Ikan Kekek 04:47, 29 May 2012 (EDT)

Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 01:46, 2 December 2008 (EST)

Bihar
Bihar is birth place of two major religion(Bhuddhism & Jainism), Lord Budha get enlightment at Bodhgaya, Lord Mahavir get Nirvana at Pawapuri so pls. put the real fact about Bihar not the negative thingh like "It among the poorest state of India",

 * Bihar is the poorest state in India. (WT-en) Jpatokal 02:32, 3 December 2008 (EST)

Patna has direct road connectivity with Kathmandu & Thimpu via Raxaul and Jogbani on India/Nepal border many travellers from Nepal/Bhutan/India use these roads to get in, Patna is a vital link as it is the state capital well connected with Road/Rail/Air with other part of India.

 * I agree that Patna is sometimes used as a jumping off point for overland travel to Nepal, but I dispute that there is a direct connection to Thimphu. Most Bhutanese heading overland to Nepal will go via Siliguri. Even those going on pilgrimage to Bodh Gaya are unlikely to pass through Patna. However, it is great that you are working on the Bihar page. We do need to inform travelers that it is the poorest state and that strikes are common but, as you say, there are many sacred sites connected with the Buddha in Bihar, and even Patna itself was the capital of an ancient kingdom. More information on this would be welcomed and a great service to travelers. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 05:43, 3 December 2008 (EST)

Bihar Geography
Request you to update the correct geography of Bihar as UttarPradesh is in the west of Bihar and West Bengal is in East of Bihar, pls. update.

Thanks, Piyush

 * I fixed it now, since I checked up if you were correct. But please plunge forward and make such changes yourself in the future, this is the whole point of this site, and wiki's in general. And please do add your local knowledge to the relevant articles, but remember to be objective - changing correct information, because you think it puts your state in a bad light - is, unlike your contributions, not welcome here (per discussion above), neither is content from other sites, it has to be your own work/writing - try it, it's quite fun once you get into it :)

 * An idea to fix the example above for instance, could be changing the paragraph into "Bihar is one of the poorest states in India, but don't let that put you off, it has a wealth of good attractions, and it's the birthplace of two major religions (Bhuddhism & Jainism)"... --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) Talk 08:50, 4 December 2008 (EST)

Bihar
Hi Piyush, I saw that you have been contributed to the article Bihar. I am also interested in improving the article. Kindly participate in the discussion on the talk page - Talk:Bihar. (WT-en) Manoj nav 12:39, 4 December 2008 (EST)

Bihar crime
Hi Piyush, thanks for your contributions to the Bihar article. I apologize that I continuously revert your changes regarding crime. Personally, I'd be happy to delete the statistics, but until now I have not been convinced that do not serve a purpose in helping paint a clearer picture of the true state of affairs in Bihar. If you can provide evidence that crime against tourists, percentage wise, is low in Bihar compared to the national average, I'd be happy to join you in persuading my fellow contributors to remove the figures. Cheers, and thanks again for your contributions. (WT-en) WindHorse 12:50, 16 January 2009 (EST)

Hi WindHorse, there are many region/state/place in India thier crime rate is always above the national average like UP,Jammu & Kashmir, Assam & other place in North Eastern states(Tripura,Meghalaya etc...) but wikivoyage page of these place have not mention such negative & horrifying statistics then why you have put the such statistics on Bihar page, I hope you will creaify!

Regards,

Piyush

 * Hi Piyush... Thanks for your response... The reason Bihar is specifically mentioned with regard to crime is because the crime is mostly on the street and tourists are targeted. Violence in Kashmir, Assam etc is related to independence movements and in general tourists are not the target, but the indigenous population. However, if you believe that violence in those states warrants more attention, please mention it in the articles for those regions. Sorry, I have revert your edit again. However, as I said earlier, if you can provide evidence that crime in Bihar is quite low and that tourists are not at risk, I'd be happy to help convince my fellow contributors to remove the statistics. Cheers, and sorry for keep reverting your efforts, but my priority is to provide travelers with information that will help them gain as clear picture of the places they visit as possible. (WT-en) WindHorse 03:54, 17 January 2009 (EST)

Bihar
You are currently engaging in an edit war over Bihar. Please stop reverting and discuss your problems on the Talk page, or you may be blocked. (WT-en) Jpatokal 10:08, 17 January 2009 (EST)

 * Took a shot at a rewrite of the section, I think it's a good compromise, so maybe you could focus on other areas. like describing what Dal bhat chhokha, Litti-Chokha, and Taari is, and getting some information in the see section. I remain a little puzzled that you and Manooj are only interested in removing any criticisms, rather than working on helping travellers to see the good parts, by writing some good travel information. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) Talk 10:11, 17 January 2009 (EST)
 * I second Stefan's sentiments. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Cheers. (WT-en) WindHorse 10:53, 17 January 2009 (EST)

Hello, Pjamescowie! 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. You seem to be jumping in with both feet; that's really cool. -- (WT-en) Evan 09:32, 11 Nov 2003 (PST)

links in listings
Hey, you should probably check out the links in listings page. It looks like we are heading toward a consensus in which we'll have neither fron-linked listings, nor bare URLs at the end, but rather at the end of the contact stuff, after the phone numbers.

I'm going to be back in Paris next weekend by the way, in case there's anything particular you would like to see covered. -- (WT-en) Mark 13:31, 9 Oct 2004 (EDT)

Germany
Hi there,

I tidied up the German city listing and left only the few major cities as they were found by you. It is always going to be point for controversial discussions where is the cut-off for cities this listing. My personal short list was the one the was edited by you and I kept it to a minimum. My selection criteria where a) major city b) is it worth visiting this city for a broader number of visitors (that would eliminate Hanover) c) how did the city article look like.

Hope we come to an aggreed city listing in the near future.

Links to external sites
Hi,

Thanks for your help with the grammar and spelling fixes on the Goulburn page. I noticed you also made some modifications to some external urls changing them to a format. Is this a style I should be following? (The template I was working from Project:Small_city_article_template lists the full url, and other style information I've seen around as well the goals suggested keeping full urls in the articles so that links were useful when printed for. Any pointers or links to other info here would be appreciated. - (WT-en) Arcae 04:38, 3 Feb 2005 (EST)

New Stub Articles
Please don't forget to add those new stub pages to Stubs needing attention. That way we can find them again after they fall off the recent changes list, and do not have to troll through all the new pages looking for them. -- (WT-en) Huttite 16:29, 27 Mar 2005 (EST)

Wales
Originally I set up the Wales' page with regions to avoid having a long and dangling list of cities, counties and boroughs. All these are now listed on shorter lists under their designated regions. However, I notice that you added the two counties for Mid Wales on the main Wales page. I'm afraid this will start the long dangling list again, especially when all the counties and boroughs for South and North Wales are added. Consequently, I took the liberty of deleting the two mid Wales counties. Anyway, give the matter some tought, and if you decide to re-introduce them to the front page, then so be it. I won't delete them again. You can reply on the Wales discussion page if you wish, but your reply will be understood by your action.

"yob"
Thanks for adding the extra text explaining the term -- without it, it was entirely incomprehensible to my poor American ears. You also mention other Western countries exhibit this peculiar behavior -- would it be advisable to add warnings for them too? I've never heard of this thing here in the states -- possibly because in the more violent US, such behavior would lead to significant fatalities among the instigators. -- (WT-en) Colin 03:15, 13 Sep 2005 (EDT)

Very Large Array
copied from Talk:Very Large Array

I'm not convinced the VLA passes the "you can sleep there" test as a destination. It's already mentioned in the Socorro article, and since Socorro is the nearest practical place to sleep, that strikes me as enough. Let's discuss. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 22:52, 25 Dec 2005 (EST)

 * Update: It's now redirected to the teeny town of Magdalena nearby, which does pass the "you can sleep there" test. If you want to make some trivial change to the Magdalena article and re-establish "ownership" of the VLA content (I just lifted what you wrote on the VLA article, with a couple of minor additions), it won't bother me at all. :-) -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 22:45, 25 February 2006 (EST)

Wales - regions
Hey Paul, excluding the three cities, there are actually 11 districts in South Wales. See Wikipedia - subdivisions of Wales. Then, when we include the districts of north and mid Wales, we have a list of 19 districts. As stated on the Wales main article, these districts are already listed under their specific regional page, and I wonder what is the benefit of creating a long, dangling list on the primary page, especially as many of the districts are of little or no interest to travelers. However, if you feel this is of some use, then please change it back. I won't revert again. (WT-en) WindHorse 21 Jan 06

"Shared" for images
Hey - a relatively recent addition to the site was Wikivoyage shared, which allows uploaded images to be used across language versions. It probably hasn't been advertised as much as it could be, but the idea is that you upload the images to http://shared.wikivoyage.org/wiki/, and they are then available to all languages as if they were local images. See Image:01-denali-from-reflection-pond.jpg for an example. -- (WT-en) Ryan 18:02, 17 April 2006 (EDT)

Formatting
When you have some time, you might want to checkout formatting for Attraction listings, Phone numbers, and Time and date formats. I mention this because some of your recent changes have actively removed correct formatting such as moving weblinks away from their correct position, replacing correct internationally formatted phone numbers with local, and removing capitalized PM. -- (WT-en) Colin 19:00, 28 April 2006 (EDT)

A little bit of admin help
Could you please revert and delete everything User:(WT-en) Ilikecats uploads or edits. He's a vandal, who will never be converted. I suggest not actually looking at any of the images he uploads because they are all pronography. Any help would be appreciated, because I have to leave for work soon. -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 04:09, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Hi! I am actually user Coin945 (i havent used this particular project before..).

Images
I know you're somewhat new here, but any future images you upload would you please make sure to upload them to Wikivoyage Shared? It's the same thing as Wikimedia Commons and allows all of the language versions of Wikivoyage use the images, not just the English version. To use Wikivoyage Shared you'll need an sign up for an account over there. To get back to the English Wikivoyage after using Wikivoyage Shared just type in www.wikivoyage.org, which will take you back to the English version. Also, make sure all images you upload are yours and they are licensed under the CC-by-SA 1.0 license or public domain.

DSP PR stands for Durgapur Steel Plant Public Relations. They have provided the photographs with full knowledge that I am going to put them in Wikipedia or Wikivoyage. They also provide pictures to the press as and when required. They are easily identified by the initials. (WT-en) P.K.Niyogi 02:46, 12 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Alright, so if they know about the CC-by-SA 1.0 license will you please note that on the images you upload. I'd change it, but since I didn't talk to them I don't want to put any incorrect information.  Thanks. -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 02:48, 12 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Hi again! Would you please upload your images to Wikivoyage Shared?  The images you've uploaded today are lovely, but I also work on the German Wikivoyage but I can't use your images on the German Wikivoyage because you aren't uploading them to Wikivoyage Shared.  I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd upload the images to Shared so all the other language versions can use your images.  Thanks. -- (WT-en) Andrew Haggard (Sapphire) 20:37, 31 August 2006 (EDT)

Thanks. I will have to find out how to do that. Once I do that I will put it up, but not today. I have some more images for uploading. -- (WT-en) P.K.Niyogi 20:42, 31 August 2006 (EDT)

Images used by articles
Hi Niyogiji,

You asked Andrew if there is a way to find if an image is being used by someone on Wikivoyage. Yes indeed there is. If you go to Image:St.Paul's Cathedral.JPG for example, at the very bottom, there is a "links" section which shows all the pages that link to that image. (As of now, only London links to it) You can do the same for images that you upload to shared. For example, you have uploaded Image:Inside Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, London.JPG to shared. But you can access it directly from the English Wikivoyage using the link, and there indeed you can see that it is linked from London/South Bank on the English Wikivoyage. But there is no way to know if other language articles have linked to your image except by visiting the same image's page on every language.

Hope that is clear. If not, please don't hesitate to ask on my talk page. And kudos for the great work you are doing! — (WT-en) Ravikiran 08:29, 2 September 2006 (EDT)

West Bengal
The list of cities is growing enormous on the West Bengal article. The ideal number for a list of places is a maximum of nine, so if you have the knowledge of the city and distict relationshhips, it would be really helpful if you could place the lesser known cities onto their specific district page - see Karnataka as an example. Thanks. (WT-en) WindHorse 00:31, 16 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Basically the cities that are on the main list are those that travelers are most likely to visit - these can be tourist places or commercial centers. Anyway, I'll start the district articles and later if you can move the less important cities to those sections it would be really helpful. Thanks. (WT-en) WindHorse 01:03, 16 October 2006 (EDT)

Sacred sites, Tourist Destinations, Other destinations
Hi Niyogi-ji - I previously made a general request/suggestion regarding the list of 'Sacred sites', 'Other destinations' on the India article (see debate below taken from India Talk page). As someone who lives in India, your comments and possible assistance with this could be invaluable (WT-en) WindHorse 03:15, 23 October 2006 (EDT)

 * First, I think that 'Tourist destinations' and 'Other destinations' should be combined and pruned down to a list of no more than nine places - some I am familiar with, others not, so I pass this on as a suggestion only.
 * The 'sacred sites' needs chopping down to a list of no more than nine places. I suggest the following should be included: Amritsar, Haridwar, Bodh Gaya, Sarnath, Shravanabelagola, Varanasi... NB: These are suggested locations only, and feasibly another three places could be added to the list. Suggestions/ideas?!? (WT-en) WindHorse 06:03, 17 October 2006 (EDT)

'':I would agree with that... and list the others in the state sections... like Trichur, and in fact all of the Kerala sites, doesn't need to be on main India page... maybe have 1 bullet for 'Tamil Nadu - amazing temples such as xxx' and then have a broader list on the Tamil Nadu page...

The debate
You left this message on my discussion page: ''I have been working on Jharkhand for the past few days. I found there were some locations – just general cities. Then I added ‘National Parks’ and ‘Pilgrimage centres’. Now, there could be some places not defined by any of these. I would have to think of another heading to suit that. I personally feel that it is extremely difficult to standardize these things round the world. You have to allow for local variations. Since I do not have information on the full debate you are referring to, I am unable to comment immediately. -- P.K.Niyogi 07:35, 23 October 2006 (EDT) ''

Sorry Niyogi-ji, I didn't explain well. My comments regarding a debate referred to the information I sent you in italics. The problem has nothing to do with Jharkhand - which is developing into a great article by the way - but the main India article itself. Ideally, lists should consist of no more than nine places, but as you'll see, the list from 'Tourist destinations', 'Other destinations' and 'Sacred sites has well exceeded that number and looks untidy. So, what I propose to do is to prune it down, and to do that I plan to combine the 'Other destinations' and 'Tourist destinations' into one list called 'Other destinations', and reduce the number of sacred sites to nine. Certainly, not all these places meriit being listed in the main article and most can be assimulated into a regional article. As I am not familar with many of the towns listed, I was seeking your guidance and/or help as an Indian regarding which to places leave on the main page and which to relegate to a regional article. As you will see, I suggested six places to remain in the sacred site list, but those were only suggestions based on my (limited) knowledge of Indian culture. Apologies for the confusion.(WT-en) WindHorse 08:46, 23 October 2006 (EDT)

 * OK, I'll try the sacred sites, but I won't attempt the others as my knowledge of India is confined to certain areas only. Thanks for your suggestions. By the way, the work you are doing is really helpful, and I hope to avail myself of much of the information when I visit West Bengal next year. Thanks. (WT-en) WindHorse 11:08, 23 October 2006 (EDT)

Templates
Hi! Just a quick note to say thanks for all of your great work lately. However, you may want to take a quick look at Project:Using Mediawiki templates - we generally don't create too many templates, and something like Template:National Park India is generally not done with a template here. The policies are flexible, but I'd suspect that that template will eventually be proposed for deletion. In any case, if you have questions feel free to discuss on Project:Using Mediawiki templates, and thanks again! -- (WT-en) Ryan 02:51, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Hey - no worries about your template! There aren't "rules" per-se, so it's entirely possible that policy could be changed to allow wider template use.  I tend to like limiting how many templates we create since it helps keep things more organized, but I fully realize that there are benefits and disadvantages.  In any case I'll VFD the template for now, so the discussion can continue on the VFD page.  Thanks for helping out! -- (WT-en) Ryan 03:10, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Hi - there is already a page covering this topic: National Parks, which has a connecting link from the 'Other destinations' section of the main India article. (WT-en) WindHorse 06:50, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Hi Niyogi-ji - As you requested, I've made provision on the Indian National Parks for adding the names of wildlife sanctuaries - hope it is satisfactory. (WT-en) WindHorse 22:17, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

Sundarbans vs Sunderbans
I notice that we have two different spellings for this region of West Bengal. One uses an a, while the other an e. Google listings show the a version to be most popular, though both are widely used. To be consistent, should we use only the spelling that using the a, as this is the version used in the main article heading, and also there is already a redirect from Sunderbans, with the e. See the following sentence as an example of the mixed spelling: Sundarbans National Park – The gateway for the West Bengal part of Sunderbans is through Canning and Basanti but one can make one’s way to the Sunderbans from Bakkhali also. Anyway, as you are the West Bengal expert, I'd be happy if you made the decision about this, and I'll follow. (WT-en) WindHorse 22:28, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Great - let's see if you can find a Scottish version of the Sundarbans, maybe on the shores one of those beautiful lakes (lochs?!?). (WT-en) WindHorse 23:37, 28 October 2006 (EDT)

 * Yeah, I have been to Scotland and West Bengal - as you say they are very different, yet beautiful in their own special ways. (WT-en) WindHorse 00:29, 29 October 2006 (EDT)

Maps
Hey Niyogi-ji - great maps. I'm impressed. Thanks for your efforts. (WT-en) WindHorse 09:17, 3 November 2006 (EST)

Tip
Thanks for all your contributions. Just a tip: there's a new template called  that is a new and improved version of isin. The new template is nicer in that it lets you use spaces to write the argument more naturally. Cheers! -- (WT-en) Colin 19:32, 14 December 2006 (EST)

Images
Thanks for the image uploads, but it would be good to put them on Wikivoyage Shared instead, so that contributors to the wikis in other languages can have access to them too. -- (WT-en) Bill-on-the-Hill 10:11, 30 December 2006 (EST)

Red Links
I noticed that you removed the Wikilinks in this edit to remove links to nonexistent city articles. Actually, we do want to keep those wikilinks -- they are an invitation to readers to contribute an article for those cities. Basically, if it matches our criteria for Project:What is an article?, then we want a wikilink to it. And thanks for all your contributions! -- (WT-en) Colin 21:49, 1 January 2007 (EST)

Hi there and thanks for your message. There are things wrong with the Croatia article in my view, including all those boat charter companies being listed and I have raised this at Talk:Croatia. I promise you that no paid listing is involved. As for your campsite links, please could you find the correct city or town article and place them there. That is where a campsite listing should be, not in the main country article. You will find a long list of Croatia destinations here and here. Please find the right one(s) for your campsites and place the listing(s) there.
 * Also please read Wiktravel's policies on style and external links. Thanks and please let me know on my talk page (not user page!) if you need any more guidance. --(WT-en) Burmesedays 11:11, 10 January 2010 (EST)

You will have to read the style guides for your listing to stick. Please see Project:Welcome, business owners. --(WT-en) inas 17:41, 10 January 2010 (EST)

 * No you did not do what was suggested. You clearly did not read Wiktravel's policies on style and external links], nor the guidance which Inas offered. Unless you can word a listing in line with those policies and avoid sounding like an advertisement, your listings will continue to be deleted. --[[User:(WT-en) Burmesedays|(WT-en) Burmesedays 06:11, 11 January 2010 (EST)
