Hello, RickScott! 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. It seems that you've made a few edits here and there in 2017 and 2018. Thanks for those contributions! All the best, --Comment by Selfie City (talk about my contributions) 16:38, 29 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Additionally, thanks for explaining about the North Face. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 21:17, 21 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Kudos for your work on Northern Ontario. I was fortunate to be able to visit a couple of years ago. It is a beautiful part of great country, and deserves more visitors. Ground Zero (talk) 11:32, 26 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! I've lived here much of my life, and while it sometimes feels like a bit of a backwater, there are also a lot of gems. Local knowledge of out-of-the-way destinations is something Wikivoyage really excels at, and I'm happy to contribute what I can. 😊 RickScott (talk) 11:47, 26 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Temporary account IP viewer

[edit]

Hello, RickScott.

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.

Your privacy and use of the Travel Tracker

[edit]

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.
