Hello Dirk! 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. If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. I see no-one welcomed you properly last September. Let me fix that now. I'm glad to see more people paying attention to the Vancouver area articles. There aren't enough of us! (WT-en) JimDeLaHunt 02:02, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

Scope of region article containing Vancouver

Dirk, I see you just moved the Greater Vancouver article to be named Metro Vancouver. This is logical given the content of the article, but I think the changes made to that region article to equate it to the governmental division "Metro Vancouver" were mistaken. I'd like to restore a traveller-oriented scope to the region containing Vancouver, I think that scope should be smaller than Metro Vancouver, and hence I think "Metro Vancouver" is the wrong name for the article. Could you please read the discussion at Talk:Greater Vancouver and give your thoughts? Thanks to your nudge I'd like to restore that region scope, but I don't want to do it without regard to your contributions. (WT-en) JimDeLaHunt 02:02, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
