− | Opinion and personal stories should go in the talk pages (where they can and should be signed). '''Articles''' should not contain "I, me, we, or us"; they should be of a similar character to Wikipedia: factual and verifiable. You might like to consider including something of that under [[project:policies]].

− | :Well, I was thinking of allowing personal stories, if they are seperated well enough. Stories should be interesting though :) but I guess most stories about hitchhiking, told in a concise way, are interesting. It's not easy to "convert" stories into Wikipedia style articles, and I think we can be abit more free here about what to accept.<br>At least, I noticed that there were many additions in I, me, we, us" form in the former wiki. I rewrote the stuff that could easily be rewritten, but sometimes it's not. It's still useful information. And most hitchhikers coming here won't check out the Talk pages...<br>Oh, and by the way, thanks for your work here! It's greatly appreciated! :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 08:41, 29 Dec 2005 (UTC)

− | ==Name change?==
| |
− | Maybe it's better to get another name for this wiki. Would do ''you'' think about '''Hitchhike Wiki''' or '''Hitch Wiki'''? It's a bit easer to talk about it that way. Comments please! :) Or other suggestions for names :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 23:48, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

− | :Hi there, this Wiki is a great idea and could be an excellent resource for hitch-hikers.

− | :I agree that the name is a little cumbersome. I would suggest things along the lines of "Practical Hitchhiking", as that seems to be what close to aim of the project. I will think some more and let you know.

| |
− | ::At the moment I'm in [[Peru]], close to [[Lima]]. Haven't done much hitchhiking recently (last time was in [[Argentina]]). And considering the prices of the bus here and the fact that I'm going north (i.e. [[Colombia]]) aren't helping for the near future. But I'll probably be hitching in the [[US]] and [[Canada]] within a couple of months. (I guess it's good for our Google rank to add more wikilinks :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 15:15, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
