| − | Hey, I was looking around and found some different templates for cities. As usual, I "design" it with a "Heading Out" header and under it a "North/East/.. towards A, B, C...". Does it make sense to edit other pages like that to have a more common design? For some examples, look at [[Enschede]] or [[Dresden]]. Different design you'll find at the [[Wien]] or [[Salzburg]] sites. A totally different design you'll find at the [[Phoenix]] city-site. I guess for more usability (and to make it more user-friendly) a standard-template should be created for city pages with hitchhiking spots. [[User:Platschi|platschi]] 15:51, 12 August 2007 (CEST)

| − | :I always headline them under "Hitching out" and then "North, towards City, City City" etc. I think that because of my borderline OCD tendencies, most pages fall under that template. However, I'm not partisan about any particular organization system as long as it works. We do need to start setting up some "official" templates, though. I keep telling myself that we need to get that taken care of so that we can keep our growth organized. Nothing too strict, though, because I'm a firm believer that more protocol means less innovation.

| − | ==Articles/information about hostels==
| |
| − | I found an article dedicated to [http://hitchwiki.org/?title=Il_Postello&curid=2935&action=history a hostel]. I think we shouldn't have individual articles about hostels on this wiki. I moved the article into [[Milano]], where it's better off. But, there's also a big CS community in Milano, and we should probably find some guidelines on what we want and don't want in articles.

| − | : hey, it depends how you see it. maybe there are hitchhikers out there that are not members of CS or any other community like that. i thought that a cheap place to stay in milano might be a good information if you're totally lost. but it has nothing to do with hitchhiking, so if you want you can also delete that. I agree that hostels have nothing to do with hitchhiking...hmm, difficult! About what to write in city/country articles, check out the last entry here above :) Maybe some kind of template can be useful. Infos about the city, hitching out, sleeping, (maybe) CS community there?, etc... [[User:Platschi|platschi]] 17:16, 15 August 2007 (CEST)

| − | ::True, and this hostel seems kinda right, but someone else might start adding hostels that aren't as cool as this one :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 17:27, 15 August 2007 (CEST)

| − | ::A city template would be very useful of course. Maybe there's also a way to add buttons for (new) articles, just like Wikitravel. MrTweek? [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 17:30, 15 August 2007 (CEST)

| − | ::: Yeah, I think information about hostels are generally useful. Even if it's not such a cool hostel - as long as it isn't the worst in town ;) I mean, we also have information about eating or public transport - both not directly related to hitchhiking but still important. But I agree that we shouldn't put them on separate pages.
| |
| − | ::: I think we already discussed that we need templates for new cities and countries, just noone did it. I don't know how to do this, but I guess it can't be difficult, so someone should find out (I'll try to, when I find time). --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 09:32, 16 August 2007 (CEST)

| − | :::: I like where that is going. I think that as a hitchhiker-dedicated site, we shouldn't just limit it to "hitching out" info only, but also to the essential things that a hitchhiker needs. We don't need to be a clone of Wikitravel, but sleep and food are pretty important to a hitchhiker. When I was vagabonding through Europe last year those three things were my routine. How to get to the next place, where to get free food when I get there, and what park, train station or monument to sleep on (I totally slept on the Colón in Barcelona). So That being said, I think as long as it's useful to a poor hitchhiker, it's relevant to the Hitchwiki.
