Good work!

[edit]

Good work on the Japan articles! A few small pointers:

  • Don't get too hung up on "town" vs "district" etc, the administrative boundaries of 町 and 市 rarely correspond to what a traveler sees.
  • Instead of <br />, you can just hit enter twice, or (usually better) use "*" to create bullet points.
  • If there are more than a few departures per day, detailed bus schedules are usually too much information. Just "hourly from 8 AM to 6 PM" etc is enough.
  • The [[ja:]] should point to the town in Japanese Wikivoyage if it exists, and be commented out if it does not.
  • Bold the English name, but not the Japanese one. (Better yet, use the Project:Listings and add the Japanese into the alt="" bit.)

I've edited Iwaizumi a bit, let me know if you have any questions! (WT-en) Jpatokal 06:02, 8 April 2009 (EDT)
