Hello, Wikvoyan! 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.

Thanks for your edits to articles about Boston. However, your posts so far are not in harmony with this site's policy on external links, specifically Wikivoyage:External links#What not to link to. It is un-Wikivoyage-like to send people to another site to see suggested itineraries. Instead, you may paraphrase or summarize the information in the relevant articles on this site, or if you are the owner of the blog you've been linking to and can demonstrate that, you could copy from it at will if you so choose (see the template at Wikivoyage:Copyleft#How should I ask for permission to use a copyrighted work on Wikivoyage? if you choose to go that route). Otherwise, I appreciate the service you're providing and wish you well, but if you want to link to your site here, you have only one option: To argue for an exception to Wikivoyage's external links policy at Talk:Boston. Be prepared to offer really powerful arguments for why your site is unusually important to travelers if you do choose to try to persuade a consensus to make an exception for you.

All the best,
