Thanks, plus some guidelines

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikivoyage!

I reverted your addition of a listing for Sigiriya Jungles. It's perfectly legitimate to list, but try to use less promotional language more in keeping with the guidelines at Wikivoyage:Don't tout. Sleep listings are not places to tout attractions or boast about being "near" them, but to describe the accommodations themselves in more objective terms that anyone would see if they were there. So you can say it's surrounded by greenery if it is, but focus on tangible things. The first 2 "Splurge" listings in the Sigiriya article provide you with good examples.

You've been blocked for an initial period of 3 days for touting. Since you didn't pay attention to my friendly advice, here's the generic touting warning:
Hello, Amayurueme! 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.

In view of these edits, you have been blocked for 2 weeks this time. Never substitute one listing for another without giving a good explanation in an edit summary. Your next block would be 3 months, then forever, so pay attention and wise up! Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:43, 15 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
