Hello,

I'm trying to find my feed in this project. could someone help put me through. I'm in for a one-on-one session at the individual's convenience Iwuala Lucy (talk) 10:05, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lucy, I see you are from Nigeria. Would you please do me a favor, and check what I've written at Hostess gift#Africa and the Middle East? If it's wrong or outdated, please just click the [Edit] button and fix it. (We don't cite sources at Wikivoyage.)

More generally, are you more interested in improving articles about Nigeria, or would you rather focus on another part of the world? WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:25, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @WhatamIdoing, yes the content is correct and up to date. Yes, I'm just beginning to explore the WikiVoyage project and as such would commence first with the known (Nigeria) before delving further to the other parts of the world. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 17:32, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Iwuala Lucy, I have a question that you probably know the answer to. Nigeria#Get around mentions the "okada". Is that a type of taxi service? Or is that just the name for a motorcycle? WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:53, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WhatamIdoing is type of transport service which uses a motorcycle. Just like you have a transport service obtainable in a car/4-wheel, same way you have a transport service obtainable in an Okada. Don't know if I've been able to answer your question. Iwuala Lucy (talk) 04:22, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Likely okada should be handled like jeepney, put an explanation in the country article & create a redirect for easy linking to that from lower-level articles. Pashley (talk) 13:30, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I like the idea of explaining it in Nigeria. WhatamIdoing (talk) 16:25, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
