Hello, Gbwd! 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. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here.

You may also profit from reading welcome, business owners. You have been adding some info about car rentals in Greek cities, but you seem to be consistently linking only two car rental agencies. If you think it's really important to list specific car rental agencies (and I seriously doubt it is in Athens - see Wikivoyage:External links#What not to link to), the good-faith way to do it is to link the websites of competitors as well as companies you work or do marketing for. You're being a bit subtle about touting, but I'm inclined to revert your edits and would like for you to consider the guidelines in the links I've provided for you in this paragraph and make a decision about which Greek cities need to have any specific car rental agency be mentioned and edit accordingly before someone else takes action.

All the best,

Hello, Gbwd! Thank you for contributing to Wikivoyage, but please note that one or more of your recent edits has been reverted as it appeared to be an attempt to use this site to advertise or promote a business or service. Wikivoyage is created by travellers for travellers, and while business owners and employees are welcome to contribute, use of this site for promotional purposes is not allowed.

If you feel that your edits were incorrectly identified as promotional, please read Wikivoyage's guidelines on identifying promotional edits. If, after reading that guideline, you still feel your edits were incorrectly removed, please use this talk page or the talk page of the article where your edit was removed to explain why your change was not promotional. Note that it is very important that you discuss your proposed change before re-adding it since repeated promotional edits can lead to a temporary block of your account's ability to edit Wikivoyage, and in serious cases the business in question may be blacklisted from Wikivoyage.
