Rename
I have changed your username from NatureParkBulgarka to RobertSullivan1973, and your edits will now be credited to that name (this applies retroactively, too). --(WT-en) Peter Talk 10:13, 29 December 2010 (EST)

Gabrovo
Thank you. A detailed version of Gabrovo will go up soon and after that I will start on some of the local sites in central Bulgaria and Nature Park Bulgarka itself. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 14:21, 29 December 2010 (EST)

 * No problem—keep up the good work ;) --(WT-en) Peter Talk 23:05, 4 January 2011 (EST)

I have standardized entries under "See" and "Eat" using the Listingify format. I feel the entry for the city is complete at this point. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973

Bulgarka
I feel mostly satisfied with the Bulgarka entry, though I will add to it in the future (as soon as I can find the information on the people renting horses and running the paintball operation). I am open to any suggestions, comments or observation and so on. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 09:40, 6 January 2011 (EST)

 * You are welcome, although it was all your work (as I didn't do anything but standardizing section headers and adding a few standard templates :-). And that's really some great work—in fact if you can write some more details about activities and create listings for restaurants, the article can be bumped up to "guide" status, and with some further styling work, it can be nominated as an Off the Beaten Path destination and featured at the main page for a month!

 * One very visible problem, though: per image policy, there shouldn't be recognizable faces in photos and I see quite a few of them at the pictures in the article. Is there any possibility that you replace them with ones that has no faces at them? – (WT-en) Vidimian 10:13, 6 January 2011 (EST)

 * I am still trying to find listings on the restaurants in the park (as compared to Gabrovo or Shipka) and independent of the hotels, in addition to specific information on the activities. I'll edit the photos. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 02:16, 7 January 2011 (EST)

 * Hope that does the job. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 04:08, 7 January 2011 (EST)

 * Thanks for the new pics, they are well within the policy.
 * I've had a through read at the article, and I think it would be nice if these were added:
 * Get in. So, as far as I understand, this is a large park with villages in it. But no matter what, are there any gates or you just walk into the forest anywhere you like? (I'm asking this because of the photo of the park sign at "see" section, which made me think it stands next to a gate.) If there are gates indeed, near which towns they are located?
 * Do. Popular spots and typical prices for activities: watchtowers for birdwatching, possibility of horse "rental", where are the most popular sites/lakes for rock climbing and fishing?
 * Buy. Is there anywhere nearby which offers camping gear on sale?
 * Drink. Is there any bars/cafes out of villages and other than the restaurants themselves? If not, that should be noted as well.
 * Sleep. Are there any restrictions on wild camping (such as a requirement to follow Leave-no-trace camping or restricted areas)?
 * Stay safe. Are wildfires common? Since hunting seems to be a popular activity, what are tips to stay safe for non-hunters (such as months that hunting is forbidden, or most popular hunting spots so they can be avoided)?
 * Contact. What level of GSM coverage is available within the park? Where are the public payphones and postboxes are located, if available? Any business with internet access?
 * Get out. Trails completely within the park should be moved to "Do", perhaps with a sub-section named "Hiking".
 * I think that's all for now. There is no need for urgency, though—adding these will make the article better, but it's already good anyway. – (WT-en) Vidimian 11:00, 7 January 2011 (EST)

 * It is called a park but it functions more like a national forest in America, there is no controlled access. I mean, there are no gates on any of the roads.
 * There are no payphones on the grounds of the park, the villages have post offices drop boxes and I don't know about the GPS, but I've been told it work well. Cellphone work in most of the park, but coverage becomes spotty in some places, like deep valleys.
 * I can move around the trails, but only the eco trails are entirely in the park, the other cross out of the park.
 * I've not been able to find any specific info on the cafe/bars in the park, but I know some exist. I'll keep working on it. Most such cafe/bars are low key affairs, with little advertising and they cater to the locals.
 * The hotspots are mostly in the cities, Gabrovo and Kazanluk. There is not much of a nightlife in the park, the villages are too small. Staying in a hotel in Uzana overnight usually only happens in winter and several of the hotels in Uzana close for the summer.
 * I don't know about fees for horse rental as I've not been able to find contact info on the place, I've just been told it exists. The same is true for the bird watching tower. Also, there is only one large lake and there is no fee to fish at it.
 * Camping is legal, but they discourage it - there are bears, wolves and animals in the park, though no one has been killed or injured in decades. As far as I know, wildfires are not an issue. There are no local camping stores.
 * (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 03:30, 8 January 2011 (EST)

 * I've made some of the changes to the article you have suggested. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 04:28, 10 January 2011 (EST)

 * Hi Robert. I had been away from home and with no internet access for more than a week, so I couldn't have a chance to check out the article. Now that I'm back, I'll have a through read as soon as possible. – (WT-en) Vidimian 16:43, 19 January 2011 (EST)

 * Thank you. There is no rush. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 06:10, 21 January 2011 (EST)

 * Hi. I gave the article a read today. I see you have addressed all the issues above, except camper/hiker safety from hunting. I think this is an important issue if hunting is really that popular; even just telling the campers/hikers the hunting season would be a big improvement, I guess.
 * According to Project:Destination of the Month candidates (which is also the place for "Off the Beaten Path" nominations), any nominated article should have a status of at least "guide". A "guide" level park article, quoting from Project:Park guide status, should "Gives you different choices for which parts of the park to visit, and information on multiple attractions and things to do. Listings and layout closely match the manual of style. There will be multiple ways to get in and multiple accommodation listings (if applicable), some suggestions for moving out, and information on getting around." I think Nature Park Bulgaria article is quite ready for this, though a few minor points: Listings should be made conform to the examples given at Project:Listings (also check the links given for each different listing type there), and in addition, "sleep" listings need more information I think—phone numbers and prices are all good, but travellers using this article as a print-out will likely need more information on places for choosing where to spend the night. A price range is also necessary for "eat" listings. And it would be kind of nice if you could explain a bit about Baba Yaga, which/who is mentioned at "First Steps for Magician Beginners" trail listing at "do".
 * More importantly than these styling issues, the prose all over the article needs to be somewhat spiced up with a livelier tone, instead of the rather dry, encyclopedic tone that it now is.
 * Adding a map compatibly licensed with Wikivoyage's copyleft, while not strictly a requirement, will substantially increase the likeliness of a successful OtBP nomination.
 * By the way, we have a number of "star" (i.e., best of the best) park articles—such as Yosemite National Park, Isle Royale National Park, Zion National Park, Big Bend National Park—which you can check out and compare with the Bulgarka article to see yourself in what ways the article could possibly be improved.
 * And as an aside, as you may possibly have seen by now, Wikivoyage articles work in a hierarchical fashion. For example, since any international traveller to Nature Park Bulgarka will most likely read Bulgaria article first, we mention that they speak Bulgarian in the country in that article. Then, if regional dialects/accents differ substantially from standard Bulgarian, that should be noted at region article, i.e., Central Northern Bulgaria in this case. So, the "language" subsection of "understand" is unnecessary at Bulgarka's article. The same goes for "currency", too (and both headers don't conform to Project:Manual of style, anyway, they should have been "talk" and "buy" respectively). However, where the nearest banks with exchange facilities are is important information, so it should be kept, but moved to "buy". And if the local dialects/accents of the villages within the park differ from the ones of surrounding region (i.e., Central Northern Bulgaria), that should be noted as well, but in a section named "talk". The foreign languages spoken in the area is also valuable information, so that should be kept and moved to "talk" as well. – (WT-en) Vidimian 11:47, 25 January 2011 (EST)

 * I will continue to work on the article, updating the listings, finding a good map, and some other adjustments. I have already make an entry on the safety issue in terms of hunting, though to my knowledge no one in the park has been injured in a hunting related incident in years. In terms of the dry tone, I have to submit the article for approval to my superiors and the dry tone is easier to get approval for. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973

Tryavna
I am open to suggestions and comments on Tryavna. (WT-en) RobertSullivan1973 09:32, 13 January 2011 (EST)

 * I have standardized entries under "See", "Buy" and "Eat" using the Listingify format and edited the introduction. I feel the entry is complete, given the size of Tryavna.(WT-en) RobertSullivan1973

Talk:Jau National Park
Robert, I moved the discussion on the Eco Tours back to the page for Jau National Park. Please, if the listing should be on that page, plunge forward and add it. --(WT-en) Evan 17:47, 6 July 2006 (EDT)

Thank you for the advise, but remember that I am a new member of the Wikivoyage and try to work in a serios and correct form. Yesterday I visited the eco discovery tours, to check the legality and also checked on the goverment customer protection (PROCOM) if there exists some warning or doubt about the agency. seems to me that there is all OK. There are only two agencys which leave tourists to the park.The Swallows and Amazons, (a very reputable agency special for Boat Tours) and the eco discovery. It is a little complicated, all tours need a special goverment permission, the responsability for every damages is of the agency and so on. If there is any doubt about the eco discovery or some prove that I don't know, tell it to me I will be glad to be informed. I will wait some days for your response until move back the listing, may be that there is something what I don't know.

Jau National Park
I've restored several headings to the Jau National Park article to conform to the Project:Park article template. If a heading (such as "Fees/Permits") is not appropriate, simply add a note saying (for example) "There are no fees charged or permits required for entry into this park". -- (WT-en) Ryan 16:47, 10 July 2006 (EDT)

Mamori River
I notice you wrote the Mamori River article. Project:Bodies of water suggests we should not write about rivers but about the land around the rivers. A small but important difference. Is Mamori River the best name? The article does not mention the Mamori River, except in its name. It also reads like you are talking about an unnamed neaby city. Can you clarify which city that is? -- (WT-en) Huttite 22:38, 27 July 2006 (EDT)
 * Yes this is rational, but in the amazon region we use the name of the river when we mean the region and the land around. There are few citys in the whole region. I will work up these stuffs the next weeks, at the moment I am very bui
 * I will use the form for national park, Mamari is a recent national reserve

uploading images
You can upload them to Wikivoyage Shared, where we store images so that all language versions can use them. It's pretty simple, though you'll need to create a user id and password over there, or choose "login using open id" and follow the instructions. Once your image is uploaded, then add it to the page you want it on by adding:. Then it should show up when you click save. Good luck!

I've got no opinion on the Xi'an vs. Xian debate, but I've reverted the removal of the Xi'an redirect for now.

Moving image migration discussions
Why are you trying to move the image migration discussions to this project instead of keeping them at the places where they are currently held? Also, the image migration is not exclusively about the English Wikivoyage, but about all Wikivoyage language versions, so it seems very wrong to move the discussions here. --Stefan2 (talk) 19:13, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Let's focus our English Wikivoyage cleanup instructions in one place, Cleanup. For discussion of other language versions, please use meta:Wikivoyage and subpages of that, such as meta:Wikivoyage/Lounge. Peter and I are trying to ensure we have clear instructions about exactly how to help with the image move in one place so that people can help us with this big task. We simply cannot expect people who would help us to read all the many article and talk pages scattered among several wikis. We require focus--one canonical page that addresses the matter. Perhaps you could move the technical cleanup bot articles/discussions to a subpage such as either Cleanup/The cleanup bots or if you prefer to meta:Wikivoyage/The cleanup bots? --Rogerhc (talk) 19:34, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) But why move the discussions to this project when there already is a different page where everyone is discussing this? Why can't the discussions be kept there, where it is possible to use normal links to files? It seems much easier to me and avoids confusing people by moving things around. Also, it makes no sense to have the French Wikivoyage cleanup instructions, Russian Wikivoyage cleanup instructions et cetera on this page. Since image cleanup instructions are the same for all languages, let's not move things but keep them where they are. --Stefan2 (talk) 19:38, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Good point. Would it work to move Cleanup to WTS or meta? It is essential to have it in one place. Where would be the best place? --Rogerhc (talk) 20:00, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * We will highly appreciate if you do not alter the system that is running since three weeks, and join the effort instead of trying to head our work. Unfortunately, I don't see any new people doing anything. I rather see that we waste time for unnecessary discussions on where to discuss the cleanup process. It is best if you leave the cleanup instructions where they are, add a link to the WTS Pub as a place for specific discussions, and proceed to the regular work. Thank you. --Alexander (talk) 20:09, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I have spent the past three weeks trying to figure out how I can help. It occurred to me that my time was being waisted by unclear scattered instructions and that most people who would gladly help are not as persistent as I am and simply go away without understanding how to help. I am not trying to change the system we have in place, I am tying to understand it and get it documented in in one place, so that I and other people who would love to help can understand how to, and get to work. I think Cleanup does an excellent job of that. Maybe the inequality of its being on en.wikivoyage instead of meta or WTS can be overlooked and we can get to work, and point helpers at it instead of several other places? You and Stephan have the valuable asset of bing able to hold dozens of variables in your head and remember where they all are. Most of us don't. The copyright puzzle is complex enough that most of us simply cannot hold much more than than alone in our heads as we approach this matter. Keeping the instructions in one place is essential to getting the greater Wikivoyage community's help with the tagging. Essential. Technical discussions beyond what helpers need to know should not be linked to in site notice without clear labeling that they are technical discussions beyond what ordinary helpers need to know. I'm sure I have some of this wrong and I do hope you will steer me right. I imagine I have some important parts of this right, too. Thanks! --Rogerhc (talk) 20:30, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Peter and you have prepared a good overview. Probably it helps. Now let's get to work. Every minute equals to one image that can be tagged, reviewed, categorized or deleted. --Alexander (talk) 21:52, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

 * My goal was just to provide an overview to get people from here started tagging without having to wade through the very long and complex discussions on wts. I do think discussion should continue to take place there, though, where it has been. Moving Cleanup to Meta might make sense. --Peter Talk 23:58, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Redirect
As we have been moving the conversation around a bit we should keep the redirects. Travel Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 01:19, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Which ones? The two I put on were created when you moved the draft from your userpage to a wrong location and then moved it again to the location you had intended to move it to, least that's what it looked like to me. That created a double redirect for the draft and another double redirect for it's talk page. It is easy to fix that; I think I did so correctly. Anyway, I'll leave the redirects, double or not, to you now. Best for each to be a single redirect to the target page instead of a chain of double or triple redirects however. Thanks for creating the Wikivoyage/Launch press release draft and for putting it on Meta. Good draft it is, too. --Rogerhc (talk) 01:48, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback!
I've incorporated most all of it in the published version, including switching the final pic:. Re: the mobile bit, I do know that WT has one as well, my intention was just to state that Wikivoyage's is way more polished -- clarified the wording a mite to make that clearer. Jpatokal (talk) 10:13, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Sweeping
Roger, please don't sweep into the pub. It's dirty enough as it is! LtPowers (talk) 21:23, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

 * I think that when someone puts reasonable general talk about Wikivoyage onto Talk:Main Page, sweeping it into the pub is the right thing to do. The pub is where it belongs. However, given your objection to this and the indeed crowded state of the pub just now, perhaps I might sweep such onto the user page or IP page of the contributor who left it in the wrong place next time, instead. This may depend on the stars being aligned correctly. <*|:-) --Rogerhc (talk) 01:25, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

 * The problem is, if you sweep it to the Pub, someone else just has to sweep it back out later. It's better to send it to it's proper ultimate destination, especially if there's no need for additional input from others.  LtPowers (talk) 02:15, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Crashing text
Hey, could you upload a screenshot of what you are seeing. I can't reproduce, but our regions display with the map thumb and regionlist template isn't in great shape, and needs rethinking—a thumb of your problem might help. --Peter Talk 05:51, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Bali-crashing-text-Firefox18-on-Linux.png
 * Sure.
 * Screen shot (at right) from my computer to illustrate text overlapping the top left corner of the Region map on this version of the Bali page.
 * This was taken with Firefox 18 on Linux. You might be able to reproduce this error on the above linked version of the Bali page by dragging your browser window to various narrow widths. Note that I may try to fix the map key (Template:Regionlist) so that this does not happen and if I succeed then even the above linked version of the Bali page will no longer display this error because it would transclude a current (corrected) version of the map key (Template:Regionlist). [I tried but did not manage to fix this in the template.]
 * I have now undone my layout edits to Bali because I subsequently found that they were causing trouble with display of the regions map and key in mobile version. You know what, our TOC is too wide. It was narrower at WT. But maybe it needs to be this wide to display the second and third level headings nicely. I say we put a after the map in Template:Regionlist. I'll go make a note of that on its talk page. --Rogerhc (talk) 21:14, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Tourist Office
Hi there! I hope you don't mind, but I've had a play with your Puzzler concept here - what do you think?

 * A version of the Tourist Office has now gone live here - what do you think? :) --Nicholasjf21 (talk) 19:45, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Oh, that's nice! Didn't realize it was there. Thanks for the heads up. It is still too wide. Better put the input boxes one on top of the other instead of next to each other, to fit it all into narrow windows I think. Want help doing that? (You can see how I did it at User:Nicholasjf21/Tourist_Office). --Rogerhc (talk) 19:52, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

User talk:Rogerhc/Type City Name Here

I guess this article is obvious. Maybe I shouldn't have written it. I don't know. That is less obvious to me than the article though. :-)

Truth is I wrote this article because I have a link on my site in which I ask my site users to copy the bread crumbs from Wikivoyage.org/en/Type_City_Name_Here for use on geographical pages on Wikigogy and I wanted people on my site to get to a page that would explains how to get to their city page on Wikivoyage because they are likely Wikivoyage newcomers when they get here.

Someone please just tell me if I am going overboard.

Thanks,

--(WT-en) Rogerhc 01:51, 12 April 2006 (EDT)

Hello RogerR! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

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

Thanks for your edits on Barbuda. If I can help in any way, please leave a message on my talk page. -- (WT-en) OldPine 12:18, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Codrington should get any listings that apply to there. Generally speaking the region articles do not get Eat and Sleep listings unless there is nowhere else to put them. Also, please see Project:External links, as non-primary links are generally not allowed, only the facility's own website. -- (WT-en) OldPine 12:37, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Project:Article status
With one exception (the empty "Get out" section), it's definitely a guide level article. "Get out" should have information on "next destinations" like Anegada and Tortola. (And maybe even some other smaller, uninhabited islands for diving/snorkeling that I'm unaware of, although these might better be included in the see/do sections.) Here's an example of what a small get out section should look like.

The only things that stand out that would bar it from being a star, are perhaps slightly more specific directions to each listed restaurant/bar/hotel (since there are no addresses on the island), and maybe a brief subsection of "Get around" for byciclists—aren't there bike rentals on the island? That and a tourist map, which I might be able to throw together at some point—I've always been interested in doing a small island map. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 20:08, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

Virgin Gorda map
Hey Roger, I put together a map of Virgin Gorda, but I had to guess for some of the restaurant and bar locations. Would you mind taking a look at it to make sure there aren't any glaring errors. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 20:52, 20 June 2008 (EDT)

 * Great thanks! I've made the changes, and I think we're set to feature this article on the main page as soon as November (the discussion is here if you're interested). I just have one last question, how do you dial numbers if you're making a local call from within Virgin Gorda—do you have to dial 284? Or can you just dial the last 7 digits? --(WT-en) Peter Talk 00:01, 23 June 2008 (EDT)

Your edits in Punta Carnero
First of all, thanks for your enthusiasm and for the content you have put in.

But - and this is a big but - you need to read Project:Article templates - in particular, Project:Article_templates - and also Project:Don't tout (though that's of more tangential importance, because you're touting a place, rather than a business). Because while I greatly appreciate your love for Punta Carnera, you cannot simply choose your own idiosyncratic format for an article on this site. If you are not satisfied with the categories in the templates, please feel free to look through Project:Article templates and post about anything you believe has not been sufficiently addressed, but do not just change the format arbitrarily.

Keep in mind that you are totally free to use any format you like on your own website; Wikivoyage guidelines have force only here.

All the best,

Get in / Get out
Hi

I've seen many people confused by the "Get in" and "Get out" section headings - see Project:Article templates for some comments and discussion about this.

Basically "Get in" is supposed to cover both getting in and out (but has to use just "Get in" as its title); unfortunately "Get out" is not the opposite of "Get in", it's supposed to suggest places you might want to go next. ~ 203.144.143.5 05:28, 17 August 2007 (EDT)

 * Edit tips and Wiki markup as well as the Manual of style
 * Finally, please take a second to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines.

 * Wow! You're really moving along great there! Here are a couple more things (hope this doesn't overwhelm you-- feel free to just keep doing what you're doing, it's great and I dont mind following along with the templates...)
 * Project:Article naming conventions and Project:Disambiguation pages explain how we like to name places and what to do if there's more than one place with the same name (like Auburn)
 * Project:Article status explains what "outline" "stub" and other things indicate
 * Project:Jargon can help with some of the terms we tend to throw around here.

Hello, I am not familiar with editing in Wikivoyage, and so I am not sure that this message will be read. If it is, please reply to this problem. I tried to write (in the "sleep" section of Rome) a brief description of our company Roman Homes, offering vacation rentals in Rome, also mentioning our website romanhomes dot com, but it doesn't go through. Seemingly our site is blacklisted. I read here that it could be that someone "removed competitor information". Now a few days ago an employee of mine said that because the policy instructed not to edit the website URL, than he removed all the URLs he found in the "sleep" section, because he believed that other competitors were violating your rule (!). Today I went to see the page he mentioned, and I found that the links of these competitors were there, and it wasn't possible to include a link to our site romanhomes dot com. Now I read that removing competitor information is a breach etc. Again this employee of mine thought that he was doing a good thing (!). Only now I understand that it was bad, and I am also glad that one can publish the URL of a website, to inform visitors about it. Can you kindly remove the "ban" on romanhomes dot com, as now we understand your policy, and we will abide by it? Thanks in anticipation.

Hello Ryan,

I apologize again for the deletion of the URLs etc., as mentioned it was done in good faith by a collaborator of mine, who understood wrongly your policy (he believed that URLs should not be published, in fact he mentioned to me that he did not delete any text, but only the URLs, as you problably noticed). We read well your policy, which I found in the link you prompted me to, and we agree with them. We honestly don't understand why you could not find the address and details of our agency, which I wrote in the edited text, and which can be also found in our website (please see the entry "Meet your guests" in the "Overview" drop-down menu of our site. The details are as follows. Roman Homes, address: Via Nettunense Nuova 65, 00040 Marino Rome (Marino is a little village in Rome's periphery, it is more ancient than Rome itself). Our phone numbers are: (+39) 069352216 or (+39) 3332420210. Our agency, working usually with exclusive rights agreement with the owners of vacation rental agencies, is one of the oldest and most reputable of Rome, operating since 1997, although it was active since 1990 as a cultural society of Rome University, hosting people coming to Rome for cultural purposes. Throughout the years, we have been pioneers in many aspects of this activity in Rome (first agency to organize in the 90s a network of room rentals for people coming to Rome solely for cultural reasons, first website in Rome to use digital photography and especially panoramic photos, first agency in Italy to organize online a car service etc.). Usually, our website is sadly plagiarized by copycats, for which we had to resort to lawsuits. Among the copycats, some of the other agencies edited in wiki Travel. For ex. the agency Rome Sweet Home began in 2001, editing their website largely by copying/pasting text and photos from our website, which is considered one of the best and most complete presenting Rome (and not only the sheer apartments rented). Should you require additional information, I will be glad to provide it. Thanks, and keep up your good work.

Torres del Paine
Hi Ronald -

It looks like you've just made some updates to Torres del Paine National Park. Do you happen to know if there are places nearby (hostels, whatever) that gear can be safely stored while trekking? Specifically, I'm planning to be there next February and will have a lot of camera equipment that I don't want to backpack with, so it would be great if there's a place nearby where it can be stored without fear of being stolen.

Nice work on your recent contributions, by the way -- the coverage of South American destinations seems to lag a bit behind that of other continents, so it's great to see someone making additions. -- (WT-en) Ryan 16:34, 2 Jul 2005 (EDT)

 * I currently entering eight months travel experience from memory and backed up by the lonely planet from Venezuelean and Colombian internetshops. So it's probably not 100% perfect but I hope it's a good start.
 * Torres del Paine is really amazing. You should also go to El Chalten right over the Argentinian border. I staid in a dependance of Casa Cecilia in Puerto Natales and they offered luggage storage. It was just a locked room where everbody puts their stuff. I put my creditcard and some documents there and I didn't have a problem. I think most places in Puerto Natales offer similar services and if you use a recommended place you don't have to worry about the staff stealing. Just wrap you cameras in clothes or something and put it in a bag so it's not too obvious that it is a camera. And seal your bag so somebody cannot go through you stuff unnoticed. Mayby Casa Cecilia also has a safe but I'm not sure about that. (WT-en) Ronald 11:45, 4 Jul 2005 (EDT)

 * Thanks! I've actually spent a week in El Chalten and loved it, but unfortunately I didn't have enough time on that trip to visit Torres del Paine, so hopefully I'll get a chance to visit in February. -- (WT-en) Ryan 20:46, 9 Jul 2005 (EDT)

Moving Colonia
Hi Ronald,

It's great to see someone getting started on some South American destinations. I see that you've started the long awaited Santiago. I've just come back from holiday, but once I've settled back in I'll add a bit more to it and Montevideo etc.

I have also moved Colonia del Sacramento to plain "Colonia" as it's more commonly known as that and there were already quite a few links to it (or I'm just lazy....). The full page is now a redirect. -- (WT-en) DanielC 14:24, 3 Jul 2005 (EDT)

Hi, Ronald. I reverted your edits linking WorldFlicks to from various large cities. I believe they are contrary to Wikivoyage policy at: Project:External links as we do not link to map services or image galleries. (WT-en) OldPine 12:49, 8 August 2007 (EDT)

Hi Oldpine. I think they are not contrary to the Wikivoyage policy; This is not a map service, nor a personal photo gallery. It is the selection of millions of users showing the best and most interesting photos of the city. I think it is a perfect source to get a good sense of a city before you visit it. This is exactly the mail goal of Wikivoyage! So I will put some links back, but maybe better in a diffent part of the page. What you think about this suggestion: put them under 'Do', for example "Visit Berlin, a virtual tour through the city". (WT-en) RonaldR 06:26, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

 * We run by consensus around here, so I posted for comment at Project:External links and we'll see what folks have to say. (WT-en) OldPine 06:48, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

 * Good idea! I will not put new links, let's see what the community thinks about this... (WT-en) RonaldR 06:52, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

 * Thanks OldPine.
 * Ronald, there's a right way and a wrong way to go about this. The wrong way is to just add external links.  That's clearly against policy, and they should be removed.
 * The right way is to convince us to add your site to our interwiki-linking policy, and our delegations. You might start by adding some licensing, and terms of service information to your site.  I couldn't find either.
 * Anyhow the usual requirement for interwiki links is that the site have a wiki nature, which means that anybody can edit, that it have an Open Content license, and that it be global. -- (WT-en) Mark 06:56, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

 * You are right, there should be licensing and terms on the site. Where can I found info about the interwiki-linking policy?(WT-en) RonaldR 07:36, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

On the other hand, if a link is usefull (which I think this is), should it have a wiki nature? shouldnt the discussion be about whether links to these pages are usefull or not? (WT-en) RonaldR 07:36, 9 August 2007 (EDT)

Removed some additions on talk pages
I reverted your addition of the same message—a plug for your site—to a large number of article talk pages. If you are interested in changing the external links policy, or coming up with a way for your site and Wikivoyage to cooperate in some other way, the appropriate way to do that would be to join the discussion at Project:External links and explain why we should. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 14:21, 9 March 2008 (EDT)

 * Sorry, I just wanted some discussion on several pages on linking to WorldFlicks pages. I think it fits with the external linking policy, I don't see any point where it doesnt fit. I posted in on 10 popular places to get some good discussion... Where should be the best place to run this discussion? (WT-en) RonaldR 16:17, 9 March 2008 (EDT)

 * Right here. So far the discussion has only been about whether to allow links to WorldFlicks, and it appears that the existing consensus is that the WorldFlicks links do not fit because they are not official, primary sources, and hence are not allowed per the Project:External links policy. That is also a fine place to suggest non-link related cooperation between the two sites, if you have such suggestions. The only thing that comes to my mind would be to have indirect cooperation by adopting similar image licensing, so that we could share images more easily. But adding lots of links around the site will invariably not be viewed as generating discussion, but rather as spam. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 17:02, 9 March 2008 (EDT)

 * Just a note to say I agree with Peter on this one. By my count there are now four pointers on this page to Project:External links (that makes five) as the place to discuss whether your site should be an exception to policy.  Your intention may be to improve Wikivoyage, but be aware that by ignoring the existing external link policy, as well as advice on this talk page, it makes your link additions appear to be the self-promotion that the external link policy is trying to prevent, rather than a well-intentioned attempt to create useful guides for travelers. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 17:08, 9 March 2008 (EDT)

Philippines
Hi Ronald,

You may have noticed that a couple of us have rolled back edits you've made to the Philippines page. Not sure what you're doing, but your edits are causing all sorts of weird formatting issues. Also, you're making the pages very image-heavy. While this may not be a problem if you're on a nice fast internet connection, for those of us with slower connections, and also for users on PDAs and other mobile devices lots of big images become a problem. I'm not saying "no images", but try and be a little more selective, and also resize them in an image editor to be a lot smaller. Have a look at some of the existing site images to get an idea of suitable sizes and numbers.

If you need any assistance, just leave a message on here and there's plenty of people around who can give you a hand.
