Re: User talk:49.197.182.98: Telstra IP user screwing with us again. He seems obsessed with adding the names of explorers from given towns in the guides for them, lately. Probably should be summarily blocked already. Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:45, 2 February 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm interested in your Olympic Games 2020 box, if you don't mind I want to modify it for 2018 Asian Games 2018 in Jakarta in Wikipedia article (not in Wikivoyage). Can I do it? Thank you in advance.Gsarwa (talk) 12:58, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Gsarwa, there is no ownership of material of Wikivoyage, so you are free to take what you want! However unfortunately the template doesn't work, since the number only updates when an edit is made to the page :( --Andrewssi2 (talk) 21:12, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Gsarwa , just to be clear, it should only work if you edit the article page (any edit) every day. --Andrewssi2 (talk) 21:03, 1 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks. In contrast to our article on Roman empire where there is so much evidence (even Roman law still being used today) that I think it is a fascinating subject due to the fact there is limited evidence to how this forgotten empire worked.

Thanks a lot for adding this map, but using the language of the former colonial overlords who had to be beaten off through a brutal war could be offensive to some Indonesians. I take it there's no English-language map on Commons? Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:38, 24 April 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I changed to the Google map. I was hating the banner, but couldn't find anything better on Commons, but thought to use the available map anyhow.

Dear Andrewssi2, I find your new banner you added to Cheyenne more accurate and representative of Cheyenne than the previous one, which showed North Cheyenne and Ranchettes. I liked the previous one, it was pretty, but Cheyenne does need to show its true self, so your move was good.

Sure thing, although I think we can still do better. If you find a better CC photo then let me know and I will make a banner for it! (Or update the banner yourself). --Andrewssi2 (talk) 21:57, 9 May 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Andrewssi2, I have come upon a Downtown image that would be more representative. caption=Downtown Cheyenne Low-Rises on Capitol Avenue, with the capital in the background I would like to obtain your opinion, and possibly consensus before using it. I am considering to use this as the page banner, and then use the other two banners in other parts. Warren avenue banner could go in the "Get around" section, and the Storey Ave Water Tower could be left off for now. Does this sound good?
That doesn't look wide enough for you to be able to create a pagebanner from it. The pagebanner has to extend the entire width of the page, and this photo doesn't extend that far at full size. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:39, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Unfortunately Ikan is correct. You need a picture that is at least 1800 pixels wide (and preferably at least 2100 pixels wide). I agree otherwise that it would make for a better banner. Suggest you look on Flickr.com for a Creative Commons compliant image which we could import. --Andrewssi2 (talk) 21:34, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
What are you doing? Me: Bringing up an old conversation with a better point than last time. So, I think this texturized picture from 1920. Texturized view of Downtown Cheynne aroun 1950, and hopefully provides a more accurate depiction of Cheyenne. Historical Photo. You may share would be good. -Signed, the amazing Zanygenius. Visit my chat page 23:59, 2 November 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
This discussion is better held at Talk:Cheyenne since it would receive more attention. I highly doubt that the suggested texturized image would be considered better than the existing banner. First, it is way too small. Second, because of its size it would be difficult to crop into the correct aspect ratio. See manual of style article on this atWikivoyage:Banners and then peruse Wikivoyage:Banner_Expedition/Star_standard_banners to see examples of banners that have a general consensus of being good. Additionally, a picture from 1920 or 1950 (not sure which because the file path say's it's from 1920 and the subtext says it's from 1950) wouldn't give a good view of what the place is like today. It might be ok, without the texture, as a side image under the understand section however. Personal Opinions: while it is not mentioned in the style manual, I believe the texture looks like a default Photoshop texture that was slapped onto the image to make it appear old/authentic. It's tacky. Also, black and white images aren't very eye catching and I feel we try to choose attractive banners. If you are in the area, I strongly recommend taking a picture yourself and uploading it under creative commons license. Saves a significant amount of searching for large size, high quality pictures that may not exist yet. DethDestroyerOfWords (talk) 21:03, 14 November 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I've had this on my own MediaWiki where it kept spamming swimwear site wickedweasel in articles - it used the same sort of naming patterns and the IPs also resolved to Telstra. It obviously wasn't a Wikimedia wiki (being my own one on automobiles that was small and obscure, only had 60 real contributors, most were spambots). I've also known of this user to try and create subpages from main articles with random strings of numbers (I had to delete a load of /w/v/valca articles the user created as subpages of main, it's nearly always /w/index.php/ARTICLENAME spam).
As it is, I had to close my wikis around March due to lack of interest. Hope this helped you. --Walkden861 (talk) 19:37, 19 June 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No worries, I know what it's like, having used Virgin Media IPs back in 2004-2005 as an anon.

Edit summaries on Telstra blocks, talk page messages, etc.[edit]
While I certainly sympathize with your frustration in dealing with this extraordinarily persistent vandal, I wonder if you've ever considered that perhaps terse edit summaries such as "You don't get to edit. Give it up" might be serving to "feed the troll"? This is nothing more than pure speculation on my part, but I've always been of the opinion that Telstra is equally as likely to be a case of intentional disruptiveness as one of extreme ignorance or a language barrier. I think this might be worth considering. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 05:07, 24 June 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I don't recall adding any "tour group" links to the Australia post can you please advise what tour company i have used.
I referred to some general Australian websites and a travel blog - was not aware you could not link back to Wikipedia links as i thought i saw a few when i was reading this article? Sam-BJF (talk) 08:14, 13 July 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Sam-BJF - Apologies for that. TravelKing is not a tour group site, so sincere apologies for the assumption.
Nevertheless we only allow links to official tourist organizations for a given destination and so linking to that site was still not allowed. For future reference links to specific business listings are allowed, just as long as the business is not a tour group. (Your TravelKing link was not a listing).
Thanks Andrew, I'm still a little confused by your comment : links to specific business listings are allowed, just as long as the business is not a tour group. (Your TravelKing link was not a listing). I have seen Travel blogs and travel websites used on here and on Wikipedia as sources... I was just following the trend. The link I added in is a high resource on google when googling that topic, I have found that blogs or smaller websites provide a bit more information than main tourist websites that have an agenda or are being paid to advertise places?
Hi Sam-BJF - I can't speak with authority about Wikipedia, although they do encourage references and we do not even allow them. The reason for the lack of external linking is to retain all relevant travel information about a destination on the article itself (with the rationale that the traveler could just go and print off the whole thing).
Actual external link policy is here: Wikivoyage:External_links , and unfortunately TravelKing would qualify as a 'secondary source' and not be included as per policy.
Thanks Andrew - its a little bizarre that i cant add external links but the pages are filled with external links to secondary sources... but thanks for the pep talk ill update pages when i get some time from time to time..
Which links to secondary sources do you mean? Can you give an example? Also, please sign your contributions to talk pages. Hobbitschuster (talk) 13:08, 20 July 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You state in an edit summary that Holland and the Netherlands are the same thing, this is a commonly held misconception. Holland is part of the Netherlands, see Talk:Netherlands#Netherlands_vs._Holland. Saying Groningen is in Holland is like saying Edinburgh is in England. Simply incorrect.
Thanks for the clarification (although Edinburgh is in a different country altogether, so perhaps not a good comparison? maybe saying Seville is in Catalonia?)
My actual text change was to 'country', since seeing Netherlands repeated in two sentences didn't look good. I hope that was OK. --Andrewssi2 (talk) 13:55, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Andrewssi2,
Thank you for letting me know that my account had been involved with vandalism. I have found the user who, somehow managed to get through. I will erase the mischiefs done by this individual (a user: Ryan543) right away.
Thank you for letting me know.
P.S Could you send me the sources that have been vandalized by my account, because I don't know which sources were vandalized.
Thank you.
Another side note (You have to block this user, he's vandalising all the wiki sites, he's only been blocked from Wikipedia)
Take a look at Tamtetoucht, specifically the edit history thereof. I'm having trouble determining if this is the Telstra vandal - if so, it seems to be a new evolution in his/her behavior. I was prepared to give User:BiscuitTime (I'm not going to wikilink the user names, because if they're not the Telstra vandal I'd just as soon not draw their attention here and offend them) the benefit of the doubt because his username doesn't fit the pattern and he's actually adding useful information (properly listingified POIs with geo coordinates, no less), but then the second new user came on the scene ("OrangeTraveller1829" - classic Telstra-style username) and made me reconsider the whole scenario. I think a second set of eyes would be useful here.
Thanks AndreCarrotflower . With a name like that it seemed almost certainly to be Telstra, but the edit seemed helpful. Andrewssi2 (talk) 03:41, 9 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Actually I am very jetlagged today (flew London to Sydney this morning) so wasn't able to analyse this too much. Initial impression was that it was Telstra, however 'OrangeTraveller1829' is actually slightly different name from Telstra's usual format. I'm nervous when I see things like facts and coordinates, because I do believe that Telstra has really little comprehension about the material that they are adding and frequently gets things wrong. Again, this might be legit different user. Andrewssi2 (talk) 05:07, 9 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Not so different. I think this is pretty clearly the Telstra guy, and I also don't really get what's new about the behavior, but no rush. Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:37, 9 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
OK, so do we have a new policy of leaving Telstra-started articles up on an ad hoc basis? Is there a good reason not to delete this article? Also have a look at the history of Menzel Bourguiba. Isn't the whole point not to have these kinds of discussions but just to summarily delete? Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:10, 13 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Ikan Kekek . Apologies for not responding earlier, just have been traveling a lot. To be clear, I wasn't suggesting changing our agreed policy at all.
There were attributes to these edits which indicated that they were of (relative) higher quality than the usual Telstra nonsense, but I now agree they are Telstra's. They should be deleted. Andrewssi2 (talk) 22:55, 13 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
In Special:Diff/3237509 you split up the Kaarina Get in and around section into the standard Get in and Get around. The problem is that the Get in section now lacks information on getting in, while the combined section seems to have had that well covered. The reason I combined the two (I believe it was me) is that many of the buses and roads typically used for getting in are also useful for getting around, while purely local transport is sparse. If you think splitting up the information makes sense, then showing (or suggesting) how to split it in a manner making sense would be appreciated (I do appreciate your adding the map). --LPfi (talk) 21:10, 12 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi LPfi. It isn't really a big deal, but we do try and keep things to the standard destination template. Even if we revert it back to your heading, it will likely be split out again by another editor in the future.
I'm not going to object to you changing it back. Just bear in mind that it will probably be picked up again at some point and changed again. Andrewssi2 (talk) 02:17, 13 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I do not mind someone splitting the section, but I hope the one doing it will do it in such a way that information present is found under a logical heading. --LPfi (talk) 19:47, 14 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Gun jack 2000. Everyone is welcome to edit and improve Wikivoyage. The reason I reverted your edit ( as I let you know at User_talk:Gun_jack_2000 ) is that changing the name of a region is contentious and doesn't make it more appealing. Andrewssi2 (talk) 22:10, 14 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
This is just a note to say that I’m taking a Wikibreak of indeterminable length. I guess driven by a crypto racist comment into a discussion by another contributor and a subsequent realization that this wasn’t a good thing to engage with right now.
My motivation to contribute to Wikivoyage is from enjoying travel and a sincere desire to make travel better for everyone. Over time it seems that many people here just want to add comments about how they think you should behave, more often than not from a severely warped left-wing point of view. Others say you can’t ignore politics when traveling, but then go ahead and present only their POV.
The Internet in 2018 has no shortage of battlefields where one can fight culture wars. My original attraction to Wikivoyage was a decent space where we could talk about something we enjoyed. I’d like to think that I can return to that Wikivoyage at some point in the future. Andrewssi2 (talk) 07:15, 23 February 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: (and Andrewssi2 too, I guess, if he's still reading this): apologies for stumbling into this discussion late. If we're starting to lose valuable editors over this business at United States of America#Respect, then I think we've crossed a red line. Activity on that front has diminished lately, but should it crop up again I think we really ought to explore the option of a topic ban for certain users on certain subjects, and I think everyone knows what I'm referring to here. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 18:27, 19 March 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi AndreCarrotflower , Ikan Kekek . Wow, almost a month away from here :) After some reflection, the Wikibreak was more about me. I have fairly demanding work right now, and just concluded it wasn't helpful for either WV or myself to continue those conversations at that time.
I do find the discussions that regularly crop up in United States are frankly not about travel, nor in keeping with Wikivoyage:Keep_Wikivoyage_fun. Some topics are just never going to be agreed upon, and I would welcome a mechanism to close down off-topic conversations quickly and respectfully.
If that's any consolation, we managed to agree on a suitable nonpartisan way of addressing current political situation in the US despite the differing political opinions of different editors. In this regard, I think we have done better than many other internet communities. My aim has always been to advise visitors properly so they don't offend the locals, and a lot of the stuff I was trying to do there was due to the shock factor I experienced when I moved to the U.S. and realised that Americans are very sensitive about many things that are regarded as trivial or even non-issues in Singapore and Australia. I apologise for getting carried away by some of the political discussions, but I assure you I most certainly stand by the position that WV is for providing practical travel advice, and not for promoting any particular political agenda. In any case, I think that until the political situation changes, the "Respect" section is good as it currently stands. Hopefully, you enjoy your break and we can have you back again soon.

There are only a few weeks left to take the Community Insights Survey! We are 30% towards our goal for participation. If you have not already taken the survey, you can help us reach our goal!
With this poll, the Wikimedia Foundation gathers feedback on how well we support your work on wiki. It only takes 15-25 minutes to complete, and it has a direct impact on the support we provide.
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Hey Andrewssi2, hope you're doing well. I was wondering if you've got the svg file for the static map for Queensland as I couldn't find the svg file. From observations from a recent trip up to the state, some of the route numbers mentioned are out of date but since you were the one to upload the file, I was wondering whether you've got the svg file with you somewhere. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 09:19, 18 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thanks for the response. Thought you might have had it since you uploaded it, but who keeps files from 5 years ;-). SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 23:47, 7 May 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
