Hello, Favkinstin27! 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 Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. New users are also welcome to post any questions or concerns to the arrivals lounge. If you want some practice editing, please do so on our graffiti wall. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here. If you want to contribute with information about the place where you live, see Wikivoyage:Welcome, locals.

Thanks for all your work on articles about places in Nigeria! In addition to the links I gave you above, you might want to look through Wikivoyage:Listings, including Wikivoyage:Listings#Template parameters, which mentions that the name of the city is omitted from address fields in listings when it's the same as the name of the article in question.

Let us know if you have any questions, and carry on.

All the best,

Tone[edit]

Hi. Please be careful to avoid touting, such as you did here. You probably copied and pasted directly from the restaurant's website. Don't do that; keep in mind copyright issues, in addition to touting issues. Thanks. Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:13, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

And you re-touted the Oh La La Cafe's listing here! If you continue to post touty listings, I'm afraid we'll have to block your ability to edit for an initial period of 3 days next time, so please stop doing it. Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:48, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Prices[edit]

Hi, Favkinstin27,

"₦₦" doesn't function as a price on this site (you're probably thinking of Yelp). Providing price information in the "price" tabs of listings for restaurants and hotels is definitely useful, but it's best to provide some numbers. Thanks again. Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:44, 29 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please don't type all in capital letters[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Nigeria articles. In Wikivoyage, we don't type names of businesses (or anything else) all in capital letters. See wv:capitalization. Could you make the corrections, please? Ground Zero (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Favkinstin27: please stop typing business names all in capital letters, and please fix your previous mistakes. Is there something about this that you don't understand? Please work with us. Thank you. Ground Zero (talk) 23:24, 2 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
For a bit of more context, we do not allow CORPORATE SHOUTING because it is a blatant violation of Wikivoyage's don't tout policy. Often businesses have names in ALL CAPS to give a better impression, but in the digital world, TYPING IN ALL CAPS GIVES THE IMPRESSION OF SHOUTING. It would be appreciated if you cooperated and answered all the messages on your talk page, because we really don't want to have to go and fix up every single one of your mistakes.

Wrong latitude and longitude[edit]

Please ensure that you entered accurate coordinates for the entries. For example, these ones you entered for Ilorin are not even in the country (or in the Africa continent)! OhanaUnitedTalk page 23:41, 26 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
