Hello, 92.12.204.2! 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.

Thanks for plunging forward so actively, but please be aware that Wikivoyage does not have articles for every division of every state or province. It's also unnecessary to have a "Regions" section for redirects, and we avoid double redirects that go right back to an article.

I think your redirects are fine but I would suggest removing the "Regions" sections you created. If you'd like to argue for them, please do so on the Talk pages of the relevant state or province articles.

All the best,

Also, when you delete text from an article, such as you did in the India article, explain why in your edit summary (which you can type in the "Summary:" box below your edit screen). Otherwise, your edits, if not obvious, will be reverted as unexplained. Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:34, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Provincial symbols[edit]

Thanks for your interest in Wikivoyage. I have removed the stuff you added to Gilgit-Baltistan about provincial symbols. Wikivoyage is first and foremost a travel guide, so we limit the amount of stuff that is not directly related to travel. The list of provincial symbols would be more appropriate for Wikipedia than for here, so I've removed it. Regards, Ground Zero (talk) 21:52, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have also reverted your addition of provincial symbols to Northwest Pakistan. I suggest that you not waste your time on creating and adding these tables. They don't belong here and will be removed. Ground Zero (talk) 22:33, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Make sure to read your user talk page[edit]

Edit warring or continuing to do the things that are creating controversy is un-Wiki-like behavior. This is a cooperative project that requires discussion and collaboration. If necessary, we may have to temporarily block your editing privileges to get your attention. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:47, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please don't copy and paste content verbatim from one article to another, you have done from the India article to the Pakistan article. It is understandable that some of the content being copied is relevant to the Pakistan article because both countries have a shared history but please write it in your own words. Wikivoyage prefers original content over content that is copied en masse. Each of these copy and pastes will have to be reverted, especially since you are not explaining in your edit summaries or your talk page as to why you are doing it. Thank you.

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.
