User talk:99.235.195.62

Hello 99.235.195.62! 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 are a Wikipedian then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:

• NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
• be bold → plunge forward
• Village pump → travellers' pub
• External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
• sandbox → graffiti wall
• stub notes → Article status notes

It may also be very useful for you to check out Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians. If you need help, take a look at Wikivoyage:Help, or else post a message in the travellers' pub or on my talk page. Thanks for contributing!

Thanks for starting a Wikivoyage article on Satipo. I edited it based on some of these differences between Wikipedia and Wikivoyage.

All the best,

Satipo Province

By the way, I very much question the creation of this article. First, with all those red links, it seems obviously plagiarized (I will do a websearch after posting to see and delete the article if this is the case). Second, Wikivoyage does not have articles about every province but uses divisions of countries and regions only as useful for travelers. Maybe this province should have its own article, but that kind of question of organization is based discussed at Talk:Peruvian Amazon, to which this article, if it isn't deleted, should be breadcrumbed.

And yes, it is copypasta from w:Satipo Province. The policies of both Wikivoyage forbid verbatim copypasta from Wikipedia without acknowledgement (such as in an editing summary), and such copypasta is usually not appropriate because of the differences in style and goals between the two sister sites. I will delete the article now. Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:01, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
