Hello, Quackslikeaduck! 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 contributions to Takoma Park article, please stick around and help us build a wonderful travel guide. --Saqib (talk) 01:10, 30 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Default address info

[edit]

Hello, and many thanks for all the edits you do here! Quick reminder if you already knew or new information if you didn't: Default address information (e.g., "Oakland, MD 21550" in the Oakland (Maryland) guide) is omitted in "address" tabs on this site, because the concept we have is to use addresses to find places, not snail-mail them. Maybe that's a mistake, seeing how much time I spend sending messages like this, so perhaps we should reopen discussion about this. Wikivoyage talk:Listings would be one place to discuss this if you like. But absent a change in policy, please remove these default parameters. Thanks a lot.

Understood. Didn't know. Makes sense. Thanks, Ikan Kekek. ~ Quackslikeaduck (talk) 12:46, 14 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Autopatroller

[edit]

It's kind of shocking that you weren't yet an Autopatroller after contributing since October, 2013. I just remedied that. Thanks for all you do!

Best,

Island Improvements

[edit]

Thank you for your improvements to Put-in-Bay and Middle Bass Island! The improved prose you added really makes the articles feel warmer and of higher quality. --Mbrickn (talk) 23:42, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Time and date formatting per WV:TDF

[edit]

Thanks for your edits to Sharpsburg and other contributions. We try to make things easier for readers by using one time format per article, rather than changing from one format to another to another through an article. In countries that use a 12-hour format, like the U.S., the format we use is 9AM-noon, 6PM-midnight. For days of the week, we use these standard abbreviations: M Tu W Th F Sa Su, and we put the days of the week before the times. This is set out in our style guide, WV:tdf. I hope that helps. Keep up the great work. Ground Zero (talk) 00:45, 20 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the reminder. I will keep that in mind. ~ Quackslikeaduck (talk) 00:51, 20 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
