Please read SEO. The listings your are adding lack pricing info and use marketese for descriptions (when a description is actually included) and have thus been removed. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 14:05, 12 April 2010 (EDT)

Sorry, my intent was not for SEO efforts and did not realize that I was not logged on. I was simply adding contact information for our hotels for all travelers to see. I would be happy to update this with descriptions when adding, however it is very difficult to list just 1 price as a hotel could charge anywhere from $89 to $300 depending on seasons, etc. What would your suggestion be?

Something like "$89 - $300 depending on room type and season" is perfectly acceptable. We've taken a much harder stance on hotel chains lately as we want to maintain a focus on travel guides (instead of yellow page listings) so the SEO guidelines are meant to highlight the fact that if someone is adding listings for business purposes that they must be written in a way that is valuable to travelers; provided any listings you add follow those guidelines then everything should be OK. -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 14:44, 12 April 2010 (EDT)

Ok, sounds good. Didn't mean to upset the WikivoyageGods :) If you're on, you can follow me on Twitter @brianleo. Have a good one.
