Hello, and thanks for contributing!

One small comment about linking style, though: We don't pack URLs on this site, such as you did in San Diego/North. Please have a look at the external links page. Alternatively, you can use listings format, particularly in the "See," "Do," "Eat," "Sleep" and "Buy" sections. From your edit screen, you can see this:

Attractions: * <see name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></see>

Activities: * <do name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></do>

Shops: * <buy name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></buy>

Restaurants: * <eat name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></eat>

Bars and clubs: * <drink name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></drink>

Hotels: * <sleep name="" alt="" address="" directions="" lat="" long="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" checkin="" checkout="" price=""></sleep>

Other listings: * <listing name="" alt="" directions="" lat="" long="" address="" phone="" tollfree="" email="" fax="" url="" hours="" price=""></listing>

Just click on the relevant template from your edit screen and insert the relevant information.

Please feel free to ask any question you like in a reply here, and keep contributing!

All the best,

We also don't link to Wikipedia articles on a different subject than the subject of the article in question (so the Wikipedia article about San Diego should be linked - once - after the end of the text in the San Diego Wikivoyage article, but no other Wikipedia article should be linked). There has been considerable debate about this policy, but it remains in force at this time. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:11, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your contributions! One quick note though - per Wikivoyage:External links no article should have an external links section (the reasoning is spelled out on that policy page). If you have any questions feel free to ask on this talk page or in the Pub. -- Ryan • (talk) • 03:11, 4 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
