SEO
Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a look at Welcome, business owners and Project:Don't tout.

Wikivoyage is not meant to be a yellow pages, nor an advertising brochure, so please do not add listings for your business that have flowery, promotional language or that lack any useful information, in particular price ranges for rooms. Also do not list your listing more than once, and do not list it in a city other than the one it actually is in. Lastly, please, oh please, do not include the city, state, and zip code in the address field. Think about it, there is absolutely no reason to do so, since the article name should indicate what city it is in.

Edits that do not follow these guidelines will be reverted. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 02:07, 25 March 2009 (EDT)

 * Perhaps you don't understand the blinking red dot. Perhaps you do read my messages and ignore them. Either way, I will continue to revert your edits until you follow basic policies and add any worthwhile information to your listings. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 12:03, 19 May 2009 (EDT)

 * You are still on "revert on sight", until you acknowledge this message.--(WT-en) Burmesedays 11:59, 20 April 2010 (EDT)

Every edit made from this IP address has been removed, so to avoid wasting more of your (and our) time I've blocked you from editing for one day. Please read SEO and then leave a message on this talk page indicating that you have read & understand that guideline, otherwise your edits will continue to be immediately removed. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:24, 10 June 2010 (EDT)

 * I've again placed a one-day block on this account for the same reasons as noted above. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 13:13, 21 June 2010 (EDT)

I've sent the following email to wrsol.com, which appears to be the company making these edits:

Hello,

I am an administrator of the wikivoyage.org web site, the web's largest open travel web site. Over the past several months there have been numerous edits from an IP address at your company (74.7.154.242) that violate our site policies and have led to discussions about completely blacklisting all hotels added by your company. Since this would benefit neither you nor us we would ask you to please STOP placing spammy, marketing content on our site as outlined at http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:74.7.154.242.

If you could confirm receipt of this message by leaving a note on the http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:74.7.154.242 page we would be grateful.

Ryan Holliday

 * I received the following response this morning:

Ryan,

I attempted to submit a note on the page that you linked to and could not so I am replying back to the address you sent your message from.

We apologize for any violations we may have made. When looking at other hotel listings posted on wikivoyage pages we thought we were following the guidelines. Our information is not spam but to prevent further problems we have taken wikivoyage off our list of submissions.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Warm regards,

Lauren Stevens |  Marketing Coordinator

 * -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 11:36, 22 June 2010 (EDT)

 * Here is some additional follow-up. Now that they are engaged hopefully future communication can occur on-wiki:

Thank you Lauren. I've posted a copy of your message on the http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:74.7.154.242 page so that other users of the Wikivoyage site are aware of your response. In the future, if you choose to add listings to Wikivoyage.org then we're willing to work with you, but a key goal of our site is to avoid becoming a tool for advertising since we want to make sure that information on our site can be trusted by travelers. Our http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/SEO page contains some guidelines designed to help marketing companies make useful contributions.

I've lifted the editing block that had been placed on your company - if you have any questions feel free to leave messages either on the http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:74.7.154.242 page or (for general discussions) in our http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Pub general discussion page.

What you need to do
After the correspondence above I was hopeful that edits from this company would change, but per this edit that hasn't happened. To be very clear: READ SEO AND FOLLOW THOSE GUIDELINES. Quit adding listings that read like something straight out of a marketing brochure and stop using first-person pronouns like "we", "our", etc. Include proper price ranges. Create an account. Until you follow these very simple guidelines you remain on a revert-on-sight basis. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 16:07, 24 June 2010 (EDT)

 * Hi Ryan,
 * My apoligies if the submission from yesterday flagged your system. I have looked through the talk articles as well as guidelines for marketers if submissions are to occur. I have passed this along to our SEO team and will be ensuring the team is aware of the submission rules. Can we have our IP address reinstated?

 * thanks, Brandon

 * Hi Brandon. Your IP block is only short term.  If you create an account, like is recommended, you can use that account for your conforming edits.  --Inas (talk) 02:44, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Please note that deleting the price range for your hotel, moving it out of the price category that matches its price range, and adding info that jars with the presentation of every other sleep listing on the page is not welcome behavior, especially given that this is a star article, and the bar for changes is quite high. Since the listing's description is already pretty weak compared to the others on the page, I'm a little tempted to remove it outright if this continues. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 16:36, 27 January 2010 (EST)

Reading list
First of all, please read edit summaries when your edits are reverted. You can see them easily by looking at the history of an article, for example:.

Secondly, you need to read don't tout and tour.

The short version is that your listing is not possible, or at least definitely not as you've been phrasing it. And if you continue to edit war, it will be necessary for volunteer editors to block your account, as edit wars are a waste of everyone's time.

All the best,

Based on a quick look at your User contributions, you seem to be cutting and pasting a lot of promotional language. What do you have to gain from that, and why do you think Wikivoyage should be an arm of advertising?

Hotel listings have been added to the sleep section of relevant places. Do not see how that is abuse of Wikivoyage.

I criticized you for your cutting and pasting of promotional language, not the mere fact of listing hotels. But since you mention it, you're putting listings in irrelevant places, too. I just undid your listing of the New York Marriott East Side in the "Upper East Side" article. 49th St. is not part of the Upper East Side, which you know, if you read your "Ideally located in Midtown Manhattan" advertising copy before cutting and pasting it.

Flowery Language
Please see Project:Don't tout. If you are adding places as a marketing person, please avoid describing anything non-factual. For example, "adjacent to convention center" is fine. "Near convention center" is useless. "Unique environment" should be taken out, shot, shredded, and beaten; and not necessarily in that order. -- (WT-en) Colin 19:37, 22 September 2008 (EDT)

Thank You
We just realized what the 'my talk' section was for - and are taking all of the comments into account. Regarding the formatting of the hotel listings, we are taking into account what is already on the page. Some cities (Sydney in particular) have all hotel names as links already.

 * A lot of times an improperly formatted listing will sneak through - eventually someone will come along and clean it up. Since it sounds like you will likely be adding a lot of hotel information it would be best if the listings you add follow the style in Project:Accommodation listings (and given in examples below on this page) as it makes it less likely that other editors will leave comments on this page reminding you about listing formats :)  Also, while you definitely don't have to do so, if you see any listings that are improperly formatted you are both welcome and encouraged to fix them.  Thanks again for contributing! -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:12, 3 August 2006 (EDT)

Article naming
Hello - thank you for your contributions, but please see Project:Article naming conventions for guidelines on how articles should be named. Normally we simply name an article after the city, such as Phoenix. If there is more than one city with that name then we add a disambiguator in parentheses, such as Lafayette (California). Also, you may want to consider creating an account to make it easier to communicate with you. Thanks again for contributing! -- (WT-en) Ryan 13:02, 2 August 2006 (EDT)

You may also want to look at Project:Accommodation listings for guidelines as to how hotel listings are normally formatted. It's best not to include the hotel name as a hyperlink, but instead write the listing as:

"Hotel Name, Address, Phone,."

-- (WT-en) Ryan 13:04, 2 August 2006 (EDT)

Just to reiterate, the naming convention is Oxnard, not Oxnard california. -- (WT-en) Ryan 14:12, 2 August 2006 (EDT)

You seem to be ignoring these messages, but I'll try again: We do not include the state in the name when we create an article for a city unless it's necessary to distinguish one city from another. Project:Article naming conventions explains what we do then. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 17:04, 2 August 2006 (EDT)

 * Would you please pay attention. This is how you add a hotel listing -

*Westin Cincinnati, 21 E. 5th Street, Phone: +1 513 621-7700, (Fax: +1 513 852-5670),. Rooms: $255 - $300.

which will look like this

 * Westin Cincinnati, 21 E. 5th Street, Phone: +1 513 621-7700, (Fax: +1 513 852-5670), . Rooms: $255 - $300.

Hello - we appreciate the information you are adding, but please be sure you understand what you are doing.

Welcome and some advice
Hi, and welcome to Wikivoyage! I reverted your edits to the Galena travel guide, but I do want you to relist at least the hotel. You sound like a gracious host at Main Street Inn, but the style here is not to list in the first person. Also read don't tout for some guidelines and Welcome, business owners for a bit more to think about.

As for Poopsies, no-one reading the entry you posted could have any idea what you're selling, so the listing as it stood was quite unhelpful to travelers. Also, the style here is not to sell the location (or, indeed the business itself), but merely to describe the location in "Directions." The listing should simply describe the store itself and what it sells.

Please post here or in the Travellers' Pub, ending with 4 tildes (the "~" key) in a row before pressing "Enter," if you have any questions. I would like to help you more, if you need it.

All the best,

As a geographer, former archaeologist, and lifelong resident of the Southwest, I would be more than happy to contribute; however, I must say that the current format is in dire need of revision. To be fair, far west Texas, SW Colorado and SE California should be included in the geographic extent. Culturally, indigenous, hispanic and homesteader legacies need to be discussed. The notion of "southern hospitality" and "Old West" character is simply a surficial stereotype of the region, and should be revised to more accurately reflect the true nature of this wonderful, original melting pot. Insofar as cities and destinations go, relative newcomers to our history--such as Phoenix and Las Vegas--should not be the only focal point. Tucson, Albuquerque and Santa Fe (among many others) have histories that predate the founding of the U.S. as an independent country. I believe that they should be discussed in contrast to the more recent settlements in order to reflect the constant evolution of this ancient land.

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Thank you for your work on Gay Village, but did you notice the edit summaries left for you ? The links you have been adding to other guides (secondary sources) are not permissible per our policy on external links.

Hello, Welcome to Wikivoyage.

You've been doing some good work on Tilburg, thanks for that! When editing, you'll find a bunch of templates and other helpful links at the bottom of the page. It would be great if you would use the templates for "do", "see" and "sleep"-listings, instead of just making the name of e.g. a cinema bold. It brings some order and also allows others to easily fill in information on addresses, prices etc. For a cinema for example, you'd click the "Do-listing" template, so * .

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.

Touting
Dear User:77.166.75.226,

Hello .. I have apologised for not understanding that these pages are properly maintained now, and will not offend you by editing further. Please leave my listing for my B&B in place now and offer me the same chance as other small business to advertise my personnal B&B to people.

Thanks, Kerk

Touting and removing competitor business listings is forbidden on Wikivoyage, and you have clearly violated these rules on the Amsterdam page multiple times. Please stop these activities or your user account will have to be placed on Wikivoyage's block list. Also remember that Amsterdam has several districts, new listings will have to be placed in the relevant district articles.

Also, we would appreciate it if you would create an account and identify yourself as a business owner. This way it is clear for everyone whether you give your own business prevalence over other business listings. Please see: Welcome, business owners. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 11:25, 9 January 2010 (EST)

 * Your hotel is now included in Amsterdam/Grachtengordel, with all touting and other advertisement lingo removed. Please don't tout and do not include your hotel in the other districts, as those listings will be removed. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 12:08, 10 January 2010 (EST)

 * Please catch on, or we'll have to blacklist your business altogether. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 09:53, 12 January 2010 (EST)

 * Again, only one entry per business, and your listing is already in another district, please stop. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 14:20, 12 January 2010 (EST)

The text in the 'Sleep' section (before it was altered by me) and the wonderful map on the main Amsterdam page unfortunately discrimniates against small business like mine who are not in the 'old centre' which appears to the page visitor to be the 'best' place to stay if you really want to see the old city ?

I noticed the drop in traffic to my B&B site as soon as the format was changed. When I added my B&B to the old centre page I immediately got 2 booking requests.

I do not intentionally spoil your wonderful work here. I am merely trying to rebalance the discrimination that the new format presents to small businesses offering quality accomodation that are not in the 'old centre'.

Why did we need to set up the inner city in these sections anyway .. grachtengordel is a word that only makes sense to a dutch person .. maybe canal rings is more english speaker friendly ?

Thanks, Kerk

 * A couple of points, please address the blacklisting before re-adding yourself, I'm very open to removing it, if you promise to stop listing yourself in multiple articles.

 * You are welcome to suggest a new name for the district here here, but neither in name or in breaking up Amsterdam into districts, should the interrests of business owners be a point to consider. I'm sorry if you are loosing business, I really had no idea Wikivoyage was that effective, but The traveller comes first around here, if writers want to continue devoloping the guide this way, it's their call to make. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 03:33, 22 January 2010 (EST)

Hello - thanks for talking to me .. OK I can stop fratically editing pages to try to keep my business visible now htat I understand how the pages are being quality controlled. I understand the format of the pages now and how you want them to be divided. Can I only ask that the sleep section not only suggest that the old centre and south are worthy places to stay and that the grachtengordel is also mentioned .. along with the Jordaan area as these areas are where 'healthy dynamics' exist in the community and these are the areas of Amsterdam that we feel most represent aspects of our culture that we are most proud of and want visitors to see. The old centre is in the process of being cleaned up via the 1012 project (more here http://www.iamsterdam.com/en/pressroom/city-of-amsterdam-pressroom/quality) !

Thanks, Kerk culture

 * If you feel confident that you can follow the guidelines at Project:Don't tout, I would encourage you to go ahead and make the edits to the main Amsterdam article yourself. That's not an ok place to plug your business, but local, general knowledge of the area is always appreciated. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 18:38, 22 January 2010 (EST)

 * I don't see any issues in the Sleep section, it does mention the Grachtengordel area as having charming boutique accommodations. About the name: there is no English name for the area. Maybe after consensus we could try to create our self-thought-of English name, such as Canal Belt (literal translation) or Canal Ring. But as sertmann wrote, better do proposals at Talk:Amsterdam. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 14:17, 24 January 2010 (EST)

Your edits
Stop the unexplained reversions to what I'm guessing is your restaurant's listing in the Nice travel guide. If you don't stop, it may be necessary to delete the listing for good and all or/and take other actions we really don't want to take. If you believe the edits are unfair, you would do a lot better to take up my invitation to discuss them in the "Talk" page for the Nice guide.

Walking Street Hostel, Welcome to Wikivoyage.

Here at Wikivoyage we have we have a help section with lots of info on how to work with our software, a manual of style with ideas on how articles are formatted and policies and guidelines describe how we work together. Our guide to writing tone describes how we hope to create a lively guide, and to shun dry, encyclopaedic writing.Please read both Project:Welcome, business owners and Project:Tips for new contributors

Please consider creating a user account. Other wikivoyageers will get to know and trust your work. You can still be anonymous, and you don't even need to give your name. Once you have an account and have made some edits, other wikivoyagers can spend less time checking and more time improving the guide! You can also create a user page if you want, where you can talk about yourself, places you've been, ideas you have. Or you can just leave it blank. Your choice. When you edit an article, you can make a short comment describing your change. If you remove information (say a restaurant has closed), make a note of it there.

I am sorry but that image of the hostel in the Pisa article cannot stay in there as it is in breach of common guidelines for the use of images in the articles. -- (WT-en) felix 16:08, 20 December 2011 (EST)

RE your repeated substitution of berberadventures.com in favour of blocked by blacklist (which I just reverted again): One of the most important rules is "never remove info on competitors".

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a look at Welcome, business owners and Project:Don't tout.

Wikivoyage is not meant to be a yellow pages, nor an advertising brochure, so please do not add listings for your business that have flowery, promotional language or that lack any useful information, in particular price ranges for rooms. Also do not list your listing more than once, and do not list it in a city other than the one it actually is in. Do not include multiple links. Put your listing in alphabetical order.

I don't think it presumptuous to assume that you will either not read or not heed this, given that you ignored all the in-article warnings, but if you do not, you will just waste your time. Edits that do not follow these guidelines will be reverted. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 02:07, 27 April 2009 (EDT)

 * Besides at the moment your contribution amounts to little more than spamming; foul advert language Enchanting Relais just renewed with every kind of comfort is not the kind of language we want to see around here - neither have you listed any sort of price range, or basic information on facilities, check in/out times, or anything else. For that reason alone, i'm prone to delete the listing every time it pops up. It's taking me hours and hours of hard work cleaning out hundreds of listings like these from our Rome guide, and I'm not inclined to let everything sand up again. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) Talk 14:03, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

I've once again reverted your changes...

Please read our guidelines on how not to tout your business. Also, never ever WRITE STUFF IN ALL CAPS!, it's considered offensive and the internet equivalent to shouting at someone. Also the listings should include addresses, opening hours and telephone numbers to be useful for people with a printed version of the guide.

It would be an added bonus if you tried a bit harder on making the language comprehensible - we don't require perfection, and everyone should be able to contribute even if English is not their native language, but phrases like "Aigua has links with the best credit card", "Continuous assistance from OPEN" and "Each vehicle is equipped with optional" really doesn't make a whole lot of sense I'm afraid. --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 04:06, 30 November 2009 (EST)

 * Now, now. People are gonna want to experiment with the software. It's essential curiosity. No harm, no foul -- there's no permanent damage. There's a possibility that our friend here will want to help out with our project, in which case it's in our best interest to be courteous. If he or she doesn't want to help, being mean doesn't get us anywhere, and it kind of fouls the atmosphere here. If you don't have anything nice to say, etc. --(WT-en) Evan 21:04, 30 Oct 2004 (EDT)

How and why wiki works
The interesting thing is that we don't really need to have highly caffeinated moderators checking the site all the time. Since anyone can edit a page, anyone can fix a problem. So obviously undesirable edits don't usually last for more than a few minutes. The software also has a lot of tools for monitoring changes to the site. And the software's easy enough that even if someone is new to the site, they can figure out how to fix problems.

Probably the big thing is that 99.9% of people will be cool if you trust them. Put up lots of fences and barriers, and intelligent people only think about how to get around them. Leave things unlocked, and people start getting creative instead.

Anyways, hope your wiki experiment went well. If you're interested in learning more about what we're doing here, check out Project:About or Project:welcome, newcomers. We have a good explanation of wiki at Project:WikiWiki and there are some links off of there to more "wiki theory" sites. Anyways, good luck and see you around, --(WT-en) Evan 21:02, 30 Oct 2004 (EDT)

O bugger I thought I had checked everywhere for any issues like this, however it is not in yer face from the front pages. If only you had dropped me an email earlier I would have stopped.

 * No problem. I would have responded sooner too, but the site was being vandalised by someone and I wanted to attend to that first.  -- (WT-en) Sapphire 13:49, 15 September 2006 (EDT)

What would happen if Hotel Sites are added that include online booking engines, I ask as I have created a number of hotel own websites and these use an online booker to provide the booking engine at minmal cost (3% commission as opposed to the normal 10%)?

RE your recent contribution to districts in Barcelona: we desperately need help in defining borders for the districts we already have. If you can you help us, please join the discussion: Talk:Barcelona.

Before we agree on borders for the districts we already have, I think it's too early to add more districts to the list in the Barcelona article. --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 18:50, 27 September 2007 (EDT)

Welcome to Wikivoyage! Has Hyatt hired you to add their hotels to Wikivoyage, or are you just a fan? In either case, I'm very glad to see that you're doing it just right, so please keep on going — and do consider signing up for an account. (WT-en) Jpatokal 12:18, 24 July 2007 (EDT)

Hi Jani. Thanks for your feedback and encouragement. I must say that I wasn't expecting any human response, but it was a nice reminder that there are real people involved with Wikivoyage! I am a fan of Hyatt hotels. I also work for the company Travelclick, which is providing internet marketing services for Hyatt International Hotels. I've created an account: christiantc, to make it easier for people on Wikivoyage to contact me in future, if they wish. Regards, Christian

Hey, thanks for the help trying to standardize phone number formats! Just a quick note -- when you add to a discussion on a talk page, please try to add your comments at the bottom of the discussion... it makes it much easier for everyone to follow the conversation that way! Thanks! (WT-en) LtPowers 11:00, 2 August 2011 (EDT)

URLs
I appreciate your desire for standardization, but the links work just as well without the slashes while also looking better and being shorter. Our standard is to not include them.

Hi,

FYI, we very rarely block IP addresses, as you threatened would happen to 82.20.58.199. Furthermore, it's debatable whether your link to orlando-villa-guide.com is consistent with our external links policy against linking to secondary sources and other guides. And in fact, we do welcome links to individual businesses; that's part of what Wikivoyage is here for: to give specific recommendations. Please keep in mind that it's up to the Wikivoyage community to decide what's appropriate here, not any individual editor. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 09:22, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

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.

If you are a Wikipedian, or have previously used Wikipedia, then you may notice some differences in the style of our articles. Some of the changes are: * "Village Pump" -> travellers' pub * "be bold" -> plunge forward * "sandbox" -> graffiti wall * "stub notes" -> Article status notes * "External links" -> We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate them into the text. * "NPOV" -> Um, we have a a point of view and don't always care for political correctness.

I dont know why you are so keen to dispute this FACT. Go and check witht he EU or the German Embassy. Someone is just proving my poin that there is some propoganda at work here. Armenia is not such a safe place. Believe me I KNOW!!

Sadly not just one unfortunate incident. Evidence from the EU and the German Embassy shows that this is not at all uncommon

 * It would help if you could present some of this evidence. I couldn't find anything on the website of the German embassy in Austria (though I confess my German's pretty poor), nor any language supporting the severity of your statements on the U.S. Dept. of State's travel guidelines.  Regardless of the situation, the phrasing you've chosen isn't suitable for a travel guide.  If you have references, please start a discussion on Talk:Armenia; otherwise, I can't see any support for your text -- no one disputes that incidents do happen, but it's unreasonable to extrapolate one mugging into a national threat.  Thanks.  (WT-en) Dguillaime 03:10, 8 November 2008 (EST)

 * Believe you, you "KNOW"?? Who are you?  How long have you spent there?  How many specific incidents are you talking about?  Why don't I hear this from *anybody* else if it is even remotely common?  This conspiracy theory of yours, like many others, seems to lack any foundation.  You originally said the US Embassy agreed with you that it was common, but when we posted links to what they actually say, you switched to EU and German Embassies.  How many people did you discuss this with?  How long did you spend in Armenia visiting all the international offices of the world?  And again, who are you?  What is with this anonymous propaganda mission of yours?  Like Dguillaime said above, no one is disputing that incidents can or do happen, but they happen in even very safe places, and as I said before, in a small town like Yerevan, bad news travels fast and I have not heard these stories circulating in the 10 years I've been living in Armenia, which leads me to be a bit doubtful that there is some crime epidemic going on about that nobody knows about except for you.
