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 do not include the city, state, and zip code in the address field. While yes, this is good for your search engine optimization, this is straightforwardly inappropriate on Wikivoyage, 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 19:05, 1 July 2009 (EDT)

Thanks for your edits, but please avoid copying the same listing to multiple articles, and have a look at Project:Accommodation listings#Apartment listings - the rental agency you've been adding is inappropriate per Wikivoyage guidelines, and many editors will see copying the same link to multiple articles as spamming, whether that is your intention or not. Note that many of the hotel listings you've added are OK (with the caveats about language and formatting noted by Peter). -- (WT-en) Ryan • (talk) • 19:42, 1 July 2009 (EDT)
