Hello! 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. Also have a look at Wikivoyage:How to start a new page.

If you are a Wikipedian, or have previously used Wikipedia, then you may notice some differences in the style of our articles.

If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub or as a reply here. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:06, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you start new articles, please use standard article templates, such as you can see at Wikivoyage:Article templates (click on "quick version" — for a village, a "Small city" template would be used). We don't have "About" sections. And please don't copy encyclopedic information from Wikipedia or other sites. No-one is going to care about how many wards a village is divided into. We need to keep the information on this site relevant to travel. Thanks a lot. Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:59, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! First of all, this is NOT Wikipedia and not an encyclopedia. Stuff like the now deleted Village development committee article is not suitable. You've also copied information from WP which is heavily discouraged, and without proper attribution outright prohibited as it violates WP's license.
You may have noticed information in our articles are organized in the same way through all articles. This is because we use standard templates for headings and such. When you are creating a new article there are links above the editing window. Click on them to conveniently fill in the standard headings and other stuff (btw we don't use categories in the same way as on WP either). Also, please read through the comments and advice by Ikan above. ϒpsilon (talk) 12:48, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I edited Morang District into approximately our format, trying to make it an article that a traveller could use. This involved deleting large parts of what you had inserted. Please use that as an example and fix other articles yourself. Pashley (talk) 13:31, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest, we do not need an article for Morang District. The parent region Eastern Tarai has only 8 destinations under it and thus does not need to be subdivided yet. Subdividing it into districts now would only water down the information we do have. Please focus on improving the Eastern Tarai article, and let's make Morang District into a redirect to that article. Texugo (talk) 13:44, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
