Hello, Mario Behling! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

If you need help, check out Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. --Saqib (talk) 14:24, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thanks for participating! Please argue in Talk:Can Tho how the listings you reinstated (and which I again reverted in part because you restored some listings that looked to me like pure touting, such as the listing for MBM Vietnam) are acceptable under the tour and don't tout policies on this site. Part of the reason we have a restrictive policy on listing tours is that we don't want articles to become huge lists of tours, which this article was in danger of becoming. So please make your case. Thanks.
All the best,

Thanks for your feedback, but I wonder how you want to encourage people to contribute more here, if you mass delete listings of several operators. Have you been to Can Tho? It is very difficult to get to the floating markets without tour companies for example. It is surely no problem to delete MBM even though that is not even a tour company and no booking number or commercial entry, but I think you should not just delete all entries of different companies and then hand the work to others to look through the details. All of the listings were imported from Wikitravel and as I see your edits of this page in Wikitravel you did not have a problem with this before.

Please make your argument in Talk:Can Tho. That's where decisions should be made about what can be listed and why. But keep in mind that if tours are to be listed, some standard has to be agreed to on which tours are OK to list and why. Again, though, please make the argument at Talk:Can Tho. And no, I haven't been to Can Tho and won't be the main target of your arguments. I just wanted to prompt you to make them - there, on the talk page for the article. Thanks a lot.
