"Oh, I just found out a really cool new spot in a funky city that has not been added to the hitchwiki yet... I want to do that! But how?"
Anyone maybe feels like this someday, and after a minute he/she maybe thinks about how to begin with a new article.
Contents
Well, it's easy: Just start! :)
But to avoid a lot of editing and to make it all a bit nicer, maybe this guideline could be helpful:
- First, use the Search function. Maybe there is also an entry for you city. Attention: Maybe it has a different name in its language (e.g. Köln in German is Cologne in English, etc.)! If not, fantastic! Just click on You can create this page!
- Write some general information about the city. What's it's name, to which country does it belong, is it boring, fantastic, whatever. Have a look at Berlin, Hannover or Hörstel to get some ideas about that!
- The hitching information! To have a common layout, most people try to write the articles in a style like this:
[[Rome]] is the capital of [[Italy]]. Years ago, the Romans blabla.... ==Hitching Out== ===North/South/West/East towards [[Rome]]=== Information about the spot *Alternative spot *2nd alternative ... ==Alternative information: Sleep, Food, Things to do, etc..==
And this is what it looks like:
Rome is the capital of Italy. Years ago, the Romans blabla....
Hitching Out
North/South/West/East towards Rome
Information about the spot
- Alternative spot
- 2nd alternative ...
Alternative information: Sleep, Food, Things to do, etc..
Great! That's it! Easy, hum? If you have fun with it, you can also add a map from liftershalte.info and/or edit more pages!
Have fun!
