User talk:Aventuristo

Hello! 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. New users are also welcome to post any questions or concerns to the arrivals lounge. If you are familiar with Wikipedia, take a look over some of the differences here. If you want to contribute with information about the place where you live, see Wikivoyage:Welcome, locals.

Thank you very much for removing outdated information from guides to San Francisco!

All the best,

Thanks so much for your extremely helpful edits! I'd just like to ask you, when you make deletions, please indicate why in an edit summary unless it's blindingly obvious or by a vandal, etc.

All the best,

From Aventuristo: Sure thing! I'm still trying to figure out the correct way to respond to these too. The messaging is not very intuitive.

You did very well! The one other odd thing to keep in mind is that typing a colon at the beginning of a reply indents it slightly. We usually do that in talk page threads to make them easier to read. It's not that important, but it's kind of cool. Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:04, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

And by the way, you can sign off after posting comments on talk pages by typing 4 tildes (~~~~). The dog2 (talk) 19:48, 18 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Aventuristo.

A recent change now means that all IP addresses are no longer visible to most ordinary users. However, as per WMF policy, any user who has made at least 300 edits with an account older than 6 months may request the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) permission to view IP addresses of all temporary accounts for up to 90 days. You are receiving this mass message because your account is autopatrolled, or has patroller and/or template editor permissions, and have over 300 edits, and thus are likely eligible to request this permission.

Guidelines surrounding the use of the tool can be found at Wikivoyage:Temporary account IP viewer; if granted, you must also accept the WMF policy in your preferences.

TAIV permissions can be requested at Wikivoyage:Temporary account IP viewer/Requests, or on any admin's talk page.

In April, Wikivoyage introduced the Travel Tracker (also known as "My Travel Map") in the user menu at top right. It has recently come to our attention that the initial version of the tool did not make clear that maps created through it are public and are associated with your account. Users who used the tool and published a map may have their map deleted by emailing a request for oversight. We apologize for this matter.
