Welcome

Welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a second to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub. - (WT-en) Todd VerBeek 07:33, 14 July 2006 (EDT)

Yes, definitely welcome! I hope you enjoy working on an Open Content travel guide. --(WT-en) Evan 11:25, 14 July 2006 (EDT)

Another welcome! Looks like you have a lot of great info to contribute. I'd love to see our Lebanon article in particular grow into a guide or star. I hope it becomes a safe place for travel again some time soon... (WT-en) Majnoona 12:23, 15 July 2006 (EDT)

Grosser Feldberg

Regarding your post on my Talk page, I marked Grosser Feldberg for deletion because I didn't feel as if it fit the guidelines established within Project:What is an article?. If you feel otherwise, please join the discussion on the Project:Votes for deletion page, where all articles that have been marked are discussed.

It is very possible you have more information to share and the article will not be deleted. -- (WT-en) Ilkirk 11:22, 18 July 2006 (EDT)

"Or am I getting something completely wrong?"

Its a bit wierd because it feels as if you're editing a page that someone actually owns, but its proper. It's not always the easiest way to maintain a conversation, but it works since there is the fancy "you've got talk" icon on the top of the page.

As for the article, I think the link in my initial explaination above will help out a lot. The main part about your article that made me beleive that it didn't need its own page is that it didn't appear that you could "sleep there" which is the primary rule of thumb around here. Of course some things still survive that rule of thumb, but they tend to be pretty major deals.

What I did with the information that you added was to place it into what I thought was the next closest appropriate article - either the city or the region - I don't honestly recall. This way it is still mentioned, but not in a tiny, ungrowing article all its own.

Of course what I said initial about discussing the deletion still stands... if this was a simply a work in progress and there is some great thing about the mountain that makes it deserve its own page, please say so!

Also, one other tidbit. To sign you name and time, simply leave four ~ marks. Its a handy shortcut as when you save the page, they magically change!

Thanks for you work and for asking questions. Feel free to do so at any time!! -- (WT-en) Ilkirk 19:10, 19 July 2006 (EDT)
