Hello, Pozytyv! 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.

Also, please have a look at welcome, business owners and don't tout. Your listing wasn't too bad, but there really isn't any need to use your guesthouse's name 3 times in a listing. You can see my edit here. Thanks. I think I'll delete "run by Nuri", too, because why does the reader need to know the name of the manager before s/he arrives?

Hello Ikan and thank you for contacting me. First, it's not mine guest house. As for the manager's name, I think it does matter, I also did this coz some other listings do so. Otherwise, I'm fine with your edit. thank you.Best, --Pozytyv (talk) 06:00, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'm willing to be convinced. Why is the manager's name important for people to know before they arrive? Do people need to ask for him when they call for reservations? Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:25, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
Very simple Ikan. Because of who run the property defines how the property is run, and what the guests get. Local people will run property in a different manner than foreigners, families will do differently from singles. Males from females, etc... isn't that obvious?.. but again, I'm tamam with your edit and agree that it's not super-important. Best, --Pozytyv (talk) 06:44, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
Not obvious to me, but I think that could be addressed by writing something like "The property is locally-owned and very well-managed." Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:14, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
