Hi Tiger,

Welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a sec 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.

Thanks for your contributions to Malaysia! Unfortunately I had to revert your addition of cities though: we have a basic rule here saying that any listing shouldn't contain more than 7+2 units — we don't want to drown the traveller in too much information. If you want to go into more detail about cities in West or East Malaysia, then the correct place is West Malaysia and East Malaysia. (WT-en) Jpatokal 02:54, 12 April 2006 (EDT)

Thanks for the advise, From E C Tan

External links policy

Hi Tiger, Thanks for all your contributions. I was looking at some of the recient additions and see serveral external links that may be quesionable. I suggest you review Project:External links as I suspect some of the additions may get reverted. There are some good ways to add good links, but it is policy not to link to external travel guides. It is much better to add content directly in the article. If you would like to discuss the policy and get it changed, I suggest going to Project:External links and add discussion to change policy. I can see you have added a lot of good content, so please don't get upset if someone reverts some of your external link additions. Thanks. -- (WT-en) Tom Holland (xltel) 07:52, 15 April 2006 (EDT)

Noted-- But some official government tourism website should be helpful for travellers to check for latest information, thanks - Tom for the info-- From EC Tan ((WT-en) Tiger Malaysia)

We agree! If you take a look at the Project:External links policy, we like to include the official tourisim site after the first mention of the destination: Destination[1] is in Place. Hope this helps! (WT-en) Majnoona 08:18, 18 April 2006 (EDT)

Breadcrumbs

Hi! I noticed you did the breadcrumb links for Pahang by hand: there is an easier way! Just put {{isIn|Place}} at the end of the article, You can find out more here and [[2]]. HTH! (WT-en) Majnoona 10:59, 20 April 2006 (EDT)

Thanks Maj for the advice (WT-en) Tiger

Thanks for the pics, but...

...two requests though: first, could you upload them to Shared instead (so they can be used on all language versions), and second, could you please not put your name and any titles in the image itself? It just doesn't look very professional... (WT-en) Jpatokal 11:16, 30 April 2006 (EDT)

OK, I will replace with new images. (WT-en) Tiger

Thanks! Unfortunately I/the software managed to mess up something when I deleted the image from en:, it's not showing up correctly... hopefully it's just some caching bug and/or Evan can fix it, see Project:Bug_reports#Image:Poring.jpg_not_displaying_from_Shared. (WT-en) Jpatokal 00:58, 1 May 2006 (EDT)

You don't need to upload pictures to both Shared and en:, just Shared is enough. To use an image in Shared, just enter 'Image:filename.jpg' as usual, it will automatically be looked up from Shared if not found on en:. (WT-en) Jpatokal 03:47, 2 May 2006 (EDT)

FAX

This is nitpicky but important: FAX is not a new airline, it's just the new name for the MAS Rural Air Service, now run by Air Asia. They do not operate services between Borneo and the mainland. (WT-en) Jpatokal 11:59, 26 July 2006 (EDT)

Yes, I agreed. But MAS had abandoned the rural services and most of the domestic routes. I believe AirAsia can be more efficent and convenient to travellers in term of booking of tickets online.
