Hello, 203.25.141.5! 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 Wikivoyage:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub.

By the way, have you considered creating an account here? While you can absolutely keep contributing as an anonymous user, it promises a bunch of benefits, and no obligations.

I noticed you are creating articles for very small towns such as Eudlo which do not meet our What Is An Article guidance.

Can you please refrain from creating new articles unless they clearly meet the criteria? Many thanks --Andrewssi2 (talk) 04:03, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to reiterate the advice from Andrewssi2 above - very often tiny places are not given their own articles, so rather than creating skeleton articles for very tiny places your time might be better spent updating existing articles. Wikivoyage:Quick contribution guide has some guidance that might be useful to you. If you have questions you can ask them on this talk page or in the Pub. -- Ryan • (talk) • 01:14, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects[edit]

Hi. I appreciate your efforts to help with redirects, but please be a bit careful. You created a redirect on the search term "Bugis" to Singapore/Bugis. I suppose you're not aware that the Bugis land centers around the city of Makassar in Southern Sulawesi, meaning that anyone who knows who the Bugis people are would probably be looking for that city or area, not Singapore. I am going to nominate this redirect for deletion as more unhelpful than not; look for the thread in Vfd and feel free to comment there.

I also created a Vfd thread for the Planes redirect you created, since people are probably as likely to use that search term to try to find the Aviation history article as the Flying article. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:22, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an anonymous user who has not created an account yet, or who does not use it. We therefore have to use the numerical IP address to identify them. Such an IP address can be shared by several users. If you are an anonymous user and feel that irrelevant comments have been directed at you, please create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other anonymous users.
